Configuring the Access Server

Note You will need to acquire the correct network addresses from your system

administrator or consult your network plan to determine correct addresses before you can

complete the access server conﬁguration. For details on network addressing, see the

appendix “Internetworking Primer.”

Before continuing the conﬁguration process, check the current state of the access server by

entering the show version command. The show version command will display the release

of Cisco IOS software that is available on the access server.

Conﬁguring the Access Server Using the Conﬁguration Mode

You can conﬁgure the access server manually if you prefer not to use the setup facility or

AutoInstall. Take the following steps to conﬁgure the access server manually:

Step 1 Connect a console terminal by following the instructions described in the section

“Connecting the Console Terminal and Modem” in the chapter “Installing the

Cisco 2500 Series Access Server” and then power up the access server.

Step 2 When you are asked if you would like to enter the initial dialog, answer no to go

into the normal operating mode of the access server:

Would you like to enter the initial dialog? [yes]: no

Step 3 After a few seconds you will see the user EXEC prompt (Router>). Type enable

to enter enable mode. Conﬁguration changes can only be made in enable mode:

Router> enable

The prompt will change to the privileged EXEC prompt:

router#

Step 4 Enter the command conﬁg terminal at the enable prompt to enter conﬁguration

mode from the terminal:
