Note
Configuring the Cisco 7204 Manually Using the Setup Facility
If you do not plan to use AutoInstall, do not connect the router's serial (WAN) cable to the channel
service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU). If the serial (WAN) cable is connected to the CSU/DSU and
the router does not have a configuration stored in NVRAM, the router attempts to run AutoInstall at start
up. The router may take several minutes to determine that AutoInstall is not set up to a remote TCP/IP
host.
Once the router determines that AutoInstall is not configured, it will default to the setup facility. If the
serial (WAN) cable is not connected, the router will boot from Flash memory and go automatically into
the setup facility.
Note
You can run the setup facility any time you are at the enable prompt (#) by entering the command setup.
Configuring Global Parameters
When you first start the setup program, you must configure the global parameters. These parameters are
used for controlling system-wide settings. Complete the following steps to enter the global parameters:
Step 1

Completing this step saves the configuration settings that the AutoInstall process created to
NVRAM. If you fail to do this, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.
