Chapter 5 Configuring the Router Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router Specifying a Default Route or Gateway of Last Resort This section describes how to specify a default route with IP routing enabled. For alternative methods of specifying a default route, see the Configuring a Gateway of Last Resort Using IP Commands tech note. The Cisco IOS software uses the gateway (router) of last resort if it does not have a better route for a packet and if the destination is not a connected network.
Chapter 5 Configuring the Router Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router Gateway of Last Resort When default information is being passed along through a dynamic routing protocol, no further configuration is required. The system periodically scans its routing table to choose the optimal default network as its default route. In the case of RIP, there is only one choice, network 0.0.0.0. In the case of IGRP, there might be several networks that can be candidates for the system default.
Chapter 5 Configuring the Router Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router Step 4 Command or Action Purpose ip route dest-prefix mask next-hop-ip-address [admin-distance] [permanent] Establishes a static route. Example: Router(config)# ip route 192.168.24.0 255.255.255.0 172.28.99.2 Step 5 ip default-network network-number or ip route dest-prefix mask next-hop-ip-address Selects a network as a candidate route for computing the gateway of last resort. Creates a static route to network 0.
Chapter 5 Configuring the Router Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router Configuring Virtual Terminal Lines for Remote Console Access Virtual terminal (vty) lines are used to allow remote access to the router. This section shows you how to configure the virtual terminal lines with a password, so that only authorized users can remotely access the router. The router has five virtual terminal lines by default.
