Summary of Cisco Field Manual: Router Configuration (Networking Technology)

Cisco Field Manual: Router Configuration is the ultimate command reference that shows readers how to configure routers and switches with Cisco IOS software. Complete with shaded tab sections for different IOS software feature families for easy reference. Each section provides a succinct background of the group, configuration information and example components. With information on the most recent IOS releases as well as on previous releases in simple to read tables, Cisco Field Manual: Router Configuration is designed to be an invaluable workplace tool.

• Presents the common elements of complex configurations for Cisco routers, switches, and firewalls in an intuitive, easy-to-reference format.
• Each feature includes concise background information, configuration notes, port numbers, and examples.
• Describes actual configuration commands and options in the order they should be used.
• Saves time spent searching for pertinent information in the Cisco IOS documentation.
• Useful as a hands-on command reference in the field or as a part of any candidate¿s Cisco Career Certifications preparation.

For the purpose of exploring a typical example of this book's coverage, suppose you want to provide Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) services with your Cisco router. This book, in a three-page spread that combines explicit command listings with explanatory text and background information, tells you exactly what to do at the IOS command line. Where you have a choice to make, such as whether you want to specify a Domain Name Service (DNS) server in your DHCP broadcast, it's clear what your options are and how to implement all possible choices. After the step-by-step procedure that covers all typical cases, there's a complete example--in the form of a complete input and output listing from the IOS command line--that shows the configuration process from start to finish. --David Wall

Topics covered: Assuming very little about the background of the reader, this book explains how to make Cisco Systems routers do what most people need them to do. Bridging, virtual LANs (VLANs), Quality of Service (QoS), access lists and other aspects of security, and routing-protocol tweaks are all covered here.
