When the router completes the restart sequence, it can communicate with the
Configuration Program.
After Initial Configuration
Important: After the router is configured and operational,
always back up the
active configuration file. Keeping this file enables you to re-establish the
router on the network if the active configuration becomes corrupted.
You can back up the active configuration file by retrieving it and storing it in
the workstation.
Full Configuration
The initial configuration procedure you have just performed will enable you to
access the router over the network if you configured an IP address for it.
The configuration provided by QCONFIG depends upon many default values for
parameters, some of which may not be appropriate to your installation. You may
need to modify the configuration that you have created using QCONFIG to
customize the router to work on your network. You can do this using either of
these methods:
¹
Configuration Program
The Configuration Program is the
recommended configuration method for
these reasons:
1
It can enable you to keep a number of copies of configuration files on a
server for uploading to the appropriate routers.
2
It does not alter any configuration parameters dynamically. This feature
helps you control changes to the router configurations.
3
It performs more input validation and cross-checking of the configuration
parameters than the other methods.
¹
Command line interface (OPCON)
The command line interface causes certain parameters to be altered
dynamically. The binary files that are created are saved on the hard disk of the
router, not in the workstation. This characteristic makes it more difficult to
manage the configuration of the router. However, the command line interface
can be used to monitor the operations of the router, whereas the Configuration
Program cannot.
