provides you with a high-level view of the configuration and guides
you through the configuration change process.
Additionally, if you are not familiar with the command parser, the
setup command facility is a particularly valuable tool because it asks
you the questions required to make configuration changes.
Note: If you use setup to modify a configuration because you
have added or modified the hardware, be sure to verify the
physical connections using the
show version
command. Also, verify the logical port assignments using
the
show running-config command to ensure that
you configure the proper port. Refer to your platform's
hardware publications for details on physical and logical
port assignments.
To enter the setup command facility, type this command in privileged
EXEC mode:
setup
When you enter the setup command facility after first-time startup, an
interactive dialog called the System Configuration Dialog appears on
the system console screen. The System Configuration Dialog guides
you through the configuration process. It prompts you first for global
parameters and then for interface parameters. The values shown in
brackets next to each prompt are the default values last set using either
the setup command facility or the
configure command.
Note: The prompts and the order in which they appear on the
screen vary depending on the platform and the interfaces
installed in the device.
You must run through the entire System Configuration Dialog until
you find the item you intend to change. To accept default settings fo
items you do not want to change, press .
To return to the privileged EXEC prompt without making changes and
without running through the entire System Configuration Dialog,
press .
The facility also provides help text for each prompt. To access help
text, press the question mark (?) key at a prompt.
When you complete your changes, the setup command facility shows
you the configuration command script created during the setup ses-
sion. It also asks you if you want to use this configuration. If you an-
swer Yes, the configuration is saved to NVRAM. If you answer No,
the configuration is not saved and the process begins again. There is
no default for this prompt; you must answer either Yes or No.
