Background / Scenario
Cisco Configuration
Professional (CCP) is a PC-based application that provides GUI-based device
management for Integrated Services Routers (ISRs). It simplifies the configuration
of routing, firewall, VPN, WAN, LAN, and other settings through menus and easy-to-use
wizards.
In this lab, you will configure the
router settings using the configuration from the previous lab in this chapter. Layer
3 connectivity must be established between the PC running CCP (PC-A) and R1 before
CCP can establish a connection. In addition, HTTP access and authentication
must be configured on R1.
You will download and install CCP on the PC
and then use it to monitor R1’s interface status, configure an interface, set
the date and time, add a user to the local database, and edit vty settings. You
will also use some of the utilities included in CCP.
Note: Router configurations performed using CCP generate IOS CLI
commands. CCP can be very useful for configuring more complex router features because
it does not require specific knowledge of the Cisco IOS command syntax.
Note: The routers used with CCNA hands-on labs
are Cisco 1941 Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(4)M3
(universalk9 image). The switches used are Cisco Catalyst 2960s with Cisco IOS Release
15.0(2) (lanbasek9 image). Other routers, switches, and Cisco IOS versions can
be used. Depending on the model and Cisco IOS version, the commands available
and output produced might vary from what is shown in the labs. Refer to the
Router Interface Summary Table at the end of this lab for the correct interface
identifiers.
Note: Make sure that the router and switch have been erased and have no
startup configurations. If you are unsure, contact your instructor.

Note: To find out how the router is configured, look at the interfaces
to identify the type of router and how many interfaces the router has. There
is no way to effectively list all the combinations of configurations for each
router class. This table includes identifiers for the possible combinations
of Ethernet and Serial interfaces in the device. The table does not include
any other type of interface, even though a specific router may contain one.
An example of this might be an ISDN BRI interface. The string in parenthesis
is the legal abbreviation that can be used in Cisco IOS commands to represent
the interface.
