Configuring the Router Using Cisco Router and Security Device Manager
Cisco Router and Security Device Manager (SDM) is a web-based configuration tool that allows you to configure LAN and
WAN interfaces, routing, Network Address Translation (NAT), firewalls, VPNs, and other features on your router. If SDM is
installed on your router, configure the router by following the instructions in the
Cisco Router and Security Device Manager
(SDM) Quick Start Guide
. If this document was not shipped with your router, you can obtain the SDM software and instructions
for installing it on your router from the following location:
http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/sdm
To obtain the SDM release notes and other SDM documentation, go to the following URL
and click the
Technical
Documentation
link.

Connecting a PC to the Router Console Port
This step is optional; it is required only if you want to use the Cisco IOS CLI instead of SDM to configure or troubleshoot the
router. To use Cisco IOS, you must connect the router to a terminal or to a PC with terminal emulation software. Terminal
emulation software should be configured with the following settings:
•
9600 baud
•
8 data bits
•
No parity bits
•
1 stop bit
The
Cisco 1800 Series Integrated Services Routers (Fixed) Software Configuration Guide
describes how to configure the router
by using Cisco IOS software.
