Task 1 - Explore IOS CLI Help Facilities
Switch
Try context-sensitive help and observe errors (follow PDF example)
Play with hot-keys (UP/Down Arrow/Tab)
enable
show history
terminal history size <lines>
remember that whatever you configure it is in the ram, in case we don't save the configuration it returns to the
previus configuration
configure terminal
hostname test
end
reload
Once the SW comeback the name should be again switch.
if we whant to make a change to be persistent we need to save changes:
configure hostname test
copy running-config startup-config
reload
Router
Notice that router and switches cisco have the same Help Facilities, the really difference is that a switch works at L2
(mac address) and a router at L3 (IP), this means that you should configure an IP address for each
interface/subinterface that a router had.
some usefull commands:
show running-config
show startup-config
show version
show interface status
show ip interface brief
show processes CPU
show mac address-table <--- only switch
show ip route <---- only router and L3-switch
Task 2 - ASA initial configuration
ASA
notice that the Help Facilities are almost the same
enable
configure terminal
interface ethernet0
nameif inside
