Bringing up a Router
There
are four major phases to the bootup process:
1. Performing the POST
2. Loading the bootstrap program
3. Locating and loading the Cisco IOS software
4. Locating and loading the startup configuration file or
entering setup mode
Bringing up a Router
1. Performing the POST
Power-On Self Test (POST)
When the router is powered on, software on the ROM chip
conducts the POST.
During this self-test, the router executes diagnostics from ROM
on several hardware components including the CPU, RAM, and
NVRAM.
After the POST has been completed, the router executes the
bootstrap program.

2. Loading the Bootstrap Program
After the POST, the bootstrap program is copied from ROM
into RAM.
Once in RAM, the CPU executes the instructions in the bootstrap
program.
The main task of the bootstrap program is to locate the Cisco
IOS and load it into RAM.

3. Locating and Loading Cisco IOS
The IOS is typically stored in flash memory.
Note: Once the IOS begins to load, you may see a string of
pounds signs (#) while the image decompresses.

4. Locating and Loading the Configuration File
Bootstrap program searches for the startup configuration file,
known as startup-config, in NVRAM.
file is copied into RAM as the running configuration file,
running-config.
If the startup configuration file can not be located, then we
enter setup mode.
Memory
ROM : bootstrap
Flash Memory : Cisco IOS
NVRAM : permanent storage for the startup configuration file
(startup-config)
If we made changes then we must save it to the NVRAM
Remember
every interface on the router is a member or host on a different
IP network.
Each interface must be configured with an IP address and
subnet mask of a different network.
Modes
User mode:
Router>
Used mostly to view statistics
Privileged mode:
enable
Router#
Used to view & change router configuration
Global configuration mode.
config terminal or
Router (config)#
config t
we use packet tracer program for router configuration in the 3 previous modes .
Open Packet Tracer and choose the router :
Double click on the router
Choose CLI for
router configuration.
Command-Line Interface (CLI)
More flexible than setup mode.
To use the CLI, just say No to entering the initial configuration dialog.
Now we are in the user mode :
To know the commands in user mode we use (?)
To enter the privilage
mode we write:
( enable )
To see the commands in privilage mode we use (?)
To go to global configuration we use ( conf t ) :
Configuration
certain basic tasks are performed including:
Naming the router
Setting passwords
Configuring interfaces
Configuring a banner
Saving changes on a router
Verifying basic configuration and router operations
Configuration
Naming the router
Setting passwords
1- Lone console password to protect the user mode :Console , Telnet
2- Enable password to protect the privilage mode :
3- Secret password for more protection of privilage mode:

Using packet tracer in router addressing
1- We connet the figure .
The cables used are :
· Straight : between switch, pc and router, switch.
· Cross : between switch, switch .
· Serial : betweeen the two routers .
Using packet tracer in addressing
2- We put the IP address for each device as the following :
We have in the figure 3 networks :
Using packet tracer in addressing
To distribute the Ip's on the router interfaces we do the following :
Router 0:
Using packet tracer in addressing
For the second router (Router1 ) :
Using packet tracer in addressing
Give each PC it’s IP address:
For PC0 : From IP configuration :
Using packet tracer in addressing
How to ping from PC0 to the default gateway :
For PC0 :
Using packet tracer in addressing
We chose command promot and ping on the default gateway :
Homework Exercise
1- Connect the following network using Packet Tracer.
2- Use IP addresses for PC’s as shown in the figure.
3- For each network between two routers make subnetting from the IP address
192.168.4.0/24. What are the 2 networks addresses? IP’s for router interfaces?
