Configuring a Cisco 7200 VXR Router
Performing a Basic Configuration Using AutoInstall
The AutoInstall process is designed to configure the Cisco 7200 VXR router automatically after
connection to your WAN. For AutoInstall to work properly, a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) host on your network must be preconfigured to provide the required configuration
files. The TCP/IP host may exist anywhere on the network as long as the following two conditions are
maintained:
1.
2.
This functionality is coordinated by your system administrator at the site where the TCP/IP host is
located. You should not use AutoInstall unless the required files are available on the TCP/IP host. Refer
to the publications Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide and Configuration Fundamentals
Command Reference for information about how AutoInstall works.
Complete the following steps to prepare your Cisco 7200 VXR router for the AutoInstall process:
Attach the appropriate synchronous serial cable to synchronous serial interface 0 on the router.
Step 1
Turn the power switch on each power supply to the on (|) position. (This action turns on AC power to the
Step 2
router.)
After powering off the router, wait at least 30 seconds before powering it on again.
Note
The router loads the operating system image from Flash memory. If the remote end of the WAN
connection is connected and properly configured, the AutoInstall process begins.
Once the AutoInstall process is completed, use the copy running-config startup-config command to
write the configuration data to the router's nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM). Perform the
following step to complete this task.
At the # prompt, enter the following command:
Step 3
Hostname# copy running-config startup-config
Completing Step 3 saves the configuration settings that the AutoInstall process created to NVRAM. If
Note
you fail to do this, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.
Performing a Basic Configuration 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 WAN cable is not connected, the router boots from
Flash memory and goes automatically into the setup facility.
You can run the setup facility any time you are at the enable prompt (#) by entering the setup command.

The host must be on the remote side of the router synchronous serial connection to the WAN.
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) broadcasts to and from the router and the TCP/IP host are enabled.
