Cisco ios-cont
1. Boot System Commands
Configure router to boot another IOS
All routers can boot from TFTP Server
router(config)#boot ?
router(config)#boot system ?
router(config)#boot system flash <iosname>.bin
router(config)#boot system tftp <iosname>bin <ip>
router(config)#boot system rom
router(config)#do show run | include boot system
2. Backing Up and Restoring
Cisco IOS
Make sure you access network server
Ensure that the network server has adequate space for
the code image
Verify the file naming and path requirements
Besides:
TFTP Server software is running
Ethernet connection between workstation and router is
crossover
Workstation and Router interface are on the same subnet
3. Verify Flash Memory and
Back IOS
Router#show flash
Router#show version
Router#ping <tftpserverip>
Router#copy flash tftp
Walk through questions!
9. Erasing the Configuration
Router#erasse startupconfig
Router#reload
Remember: When you are prompted witht he message,
answer: n
What happens if you answer yes?
10. Cisco File System
Router#show file informationnvram:runningconfig
R#cd nvram
R#pwd
R#cd system:
R#dir
R#config net
R#copy tftp://<ip>/<file> system://runningconfig
11. Cisco CDP
Cisco Discovery Protocol
Show CDP Gives information
CDP Timer: how often CDP packets are transmitted
CDP holdtime: amount of time that device will hold
packets received from neighbor devices
R#show cdp
R(config)#cdp ?
12. Gathering Neighbor Info
R#sho cdp neighbors
R#sho cdp neighbors detail
R#sh cdp nei de
R#sh cdp entry *
Same as the previous... but?
R#show cdp entry * ?
Protocols
Version
14. Gathering Port and
Interface Information
R#sh cdp interface
Gives status on router interfaces or switch ports
To turn off cdp on router:
R(config)#no cdp run
Enable CDP
R(confi)#cdp enable
15. Telnet
Posted Online
http://blog.helghareeb.net/2012/01/03/telnetlab/
R#sh sessions
See sessions from your router to a remote device
R#sh users
List all active consoles and VTY pots on my router
Exit: Close telnet session
R#disconnect ?
Close connection to router
16. Resolving Hostname
Use hostname rather IP address to connect to Remote
Device
Translate hostname to IP
Two ways:
Build host table on each router
Build DNS Server (dynamic host table)
17. Build Host Table
Ip host <hostname> [tcpport#] <ipaddress>
Default Telnet Port is 23
R(config)#ip host R1 <ip>
R(config)#do show hosts
R#R1
Trying to connect to my telnet... WoW!
18. Using DNS to Resolve
Names
Use DNS Server to resolve names: because we have
lots of Names
Any time a Cisco device receives a command it
doesn't understand, it will try to resolve it through
DNS by default.
R(config)#no ip domainlookup
What happens here?
19. Having DNS
Add Commands:
R(config)#ip domainlookup
R(config)#ip nameserver
R(config)#ip domainname
21. Debugging
R#debug all
R#no debug all
R#debug ip rip
R#show processes
