2. Router Configuration Fundamentals Basic Configuration Procedure In general the configuration steps are as follows Before configuring a Router you will need specific detailed networking requirements They include networking purpose the role of the Router in the network the division of subnets the type of the WAN and transmission medium and the network security policy and reliability Based on the above requirements draw a clear and detailed networking diagram 3 Configure the WAN interface of the Router First configure the physical operating parameters such as synchronous asynchronous serial interface baud rate and synchronous clock of the interface according to the transmission medium of the WAN For the dial up interface you need to configure DCC parameters Second configure the link layer protocol encapsulated on the interface and the related operating parameters according to the type of the WAN Configure the IP addresses or IPX network number of all the interfaces of the Router according to the division of the subnets Configure the routes If it is necessary to enable the dynamic routing protocol configure the related operating parameters of the protocol If there is any special security requirement perform the security configuration for the Router If there is any special reliability requirement perform the reliability configuration for the Router Command Line Interface Command line interface Sl
