Cisco technology is built around the
Cisco Internetwork Operating System (IOS), which is the software
that controls the routing and switching functions of
internetworking devices. A solid understanding of the IOS is
essential for a network administrator. This module will present an
introduction to the fundamentals of the IOS and will provide
practice in examining the features of the IOS. All network
configuration tasks, from the most basic to the most complex,
require a strong foundation in the basics of router configuration.
This module will provide the tools and techniques for basic router
configuration that will be used throughout this course. Students completing this module should be able to:
- Describe the purpose of the IOS
- Describe the basic operation of
the IOS
- Identify various IOS features
- Identify the methods to
establish a command-line interface (CLI) session with the router
- Move between the user command
executive (EXEC) and privileged EXEC modes
- Establish a HyperTerminal
session on a router
