  • Config-if# encapsulation PPP – or HDLC, LAPD

DDR – 4 Steps to setting up ISDN with DDR Configure switch type

1. Config# isdn switch-type basic-5ess – can be done at interface config

2. Configure static routes
Config# ip route 123.4.35.0 255.255.255.0 192.3.5.5 – sends traffic destined for 123.4.35.0 to 192.3.5.5
Config# ip route 192.3.5.5 255.255.255.255 bri0 – specifies how to get to network 192.3.5.5 (through bri0)

3. Configure Interface
Config-if# ip address 192.3.5.5 255.255.255.0
Config-if# no shutdown
Config-if# encapsulation ppp
Config-if# dialer-group 1 – applies dialer-list to this interface
Config-if# dialer map ip 192.3.5.6 name Lab-b 5551212
connect to lab-b at 5551212 with ip 192.3.5.6 if there is interesting traffic
can also use “dialer string 5551212″ instead if there is only one router to connect to

4. Specify interesting traffic
Config# dialer-list 1 ip permit any
-or-
Config# dialer-list 1 ip list 101 – use the access-list 101 as the dialer list

5. Other Options
Config-if# hold-queue 75 – queue 75 packets before dialing
Config-if# dialer load-threshold 125 either
-load needed before second line is brought up
-”125″ is any number 1-255, where % load is x/255 (ie 125/255 is about 50%)
-can check by in, out, or either

Config-if# dialer idle-timeout 180
-determines how long to stay idle before terminating the session
-default is 120

FRAME RELAY SETUP:

  • Config# interface serial 0
  • Config-if# encapsulation frame-relay – cisco by default, can change to ietf
  • Config-if# frame-relay lmi-type cisco – cisco by default, also ansi, q933a
  • Config-if# bandwidth 56
  • Config-if# interface serial 0.100 point-to-point – subinterface
  • Config-if# ip address 122.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

    -can add BROADCAST and/or IETF at the end
  • Config-if# interface serial 1.100 multipoint
  • Config-if# no inverse-arp – turns IARP off; good to do
  • Config-if# frame-relay map ip 122.1.1.2 48 ietf broadcast
    -maps an IP to a dlci (48 in this case)
    -required if IARP is turned off
    -ietf and broadcast are optional

  • Config# mac-address-table restricted static aaab.000f.ffef e0/2 e0/3
    -port 3 can only send data out port 2 with that mac
    -very restrictive security

VLANS:

  • Config# vlan 10 name FINANCE
  • Config# interface Ethernet 0/3
  • Config-if# vlan-membership static 10TRUNK LINKS:
  • Config-if# trunk on – also, off | auto | desirable | nonegotiate
  • Config-if# no trunk-vlan 2
    -removes vlan 2 from the trunk port
    -by default, all vlans are set on a trunk port

    CONFIGURING VTP:

  • Config# delete vtp – should be done prior to adding to a network
  • Config# vtp server – the default is server, also client and transparent
  • Config# vtp domain Camp – name doesn’t matter, just so all switches use the same
  • Config# vtp password 1234 – limited security
  • Config# vtp pruning enable – limits vtp broadcasts to only switches affected
  • Config# vtp pruning disableFLASH UPGRADE:
  • Config# copy tftp://192.168.5.5/configname.ios opcode – “opcode” for ios upgrade, “nvram” for startup config
