Ports
Interface on Cisco routers refers to a physical connector on the router whose main
purpose is to receive and forward packets.
Routers have multiple interfaces used to connect to multiple networks which may mean:
Various types of networks
Different types of media and connectors.
Different types of interfaces.
For example, Fast Ethernet interfaces for connections to different LANs and also have
different types of WAN interfaces used to connect a variety of serial links, including T1,
DSL, and ISDN.

It is a program file that contains commands that
reflect how the router will react.

Bootup Process
Step 1: POST (Power On Self Test)
Executes diagnostics from ROM on several hardware
components, including the CPU,RAM, NVRAM
Step 2: Loading Bootstrap Program
Copied from ROM into RAM
Executed by CPU
Main task is to locate the Cisco IOS and load it into RAM
Step 3: Locating the IOS
Typically stored in flash memory, but it can be stored in other
places such as a TFTP server.
If a full IOS image cannot be located, a scaled-down version of
the IOS is copied from ROM
This version of IOS is used to help diagnose any problems
and to try to load a complete version of the IOS into RAM.

Boot up Process
Step 4: Loading the IOS
Some of the older Cisco routers ran the IOS directly from flash
Current models copy the IOS into RAM for execution
Might see a string of pound signs (#) while the image
decompresses.
Step 5: Locating the Config File
Bootstrap program searches for the startup configuration file
(startup-config), in NVRAM.
This file has the previously saved configuration commands and
parameters,
Step 6: Loading the Config File
If a startup configuration file is found in NVRAM, the IOS loads it
into RAM as the running-config file and executes the commands.
If the startup configuration file cannot be located, prompt the user
to enter setup mode

ROUTER ACCESS METHODS
Directly using the console port
No configuration needed on the router
ITE PC v4.0
Chapter 1 © 2007 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Public 21
Console
The console port is a management port that provides out-of-band access to a
router.
Examples of console use are:
–The initial configuration of the network device
–Disaster recovery procedures and troubleshooting where remote access is not
possible
–Password recovery procedures

User EXEC Mode
The user EXEC mode allows only a limited number of basic
monitoring commands.
This is often referred to as a view only mode.
The user EXEC level does not allow any commands that
might change the configuration of the router.
The user EXEC mode can be identified by the > prompt.

Privileged EXEC Mode
The privileged EXEC mode provides access to all router
commands.
This mode can be configured to require a password.
Configuration and management commands require that the
network administrator be at the privileged EXEC level.
Global configuration mode and all other more specific
configuration modes can only be reached from the privileged
EXEC mode.
The privileged EXEC mode can be identified by the # prompt.

How can you tell which end is the DTE and which end is the DCE?
Look at the label on the cable.
Look at the connecter between the two cables - The DTE cable will
always be male and the DCE cable will always be female.
