Cisco 800 series router configuration for beginners
I have this problem too 2 Votes
I have just bought my first non-domestic router, a CISCO 887VA-K9 which needs basic configuration to get it working. I have a
copy of the configuration guide (334 pages) and CP Express user's guide (94 pages) and have spent an hour reading but either
they are missing something or my brain is too small to figure out step 1. Would some kind soul please just give me a clue how to
get started. Perhaps from where to download a CP Express installation kit for Windows.

Is the only way via a terminal emulator connected via a serial port ? Is there a graphical interface I can use ? Are there any basic
tutorials for beginners ? This is probably the only non-domestic routrer I shall work on so I don't want to invest in a full training
course. I just need enough to plug in the ISP credentials and set up DHCP.

Contact your DSL provider and ask for a copy of their configuration. All ISPs support Cisco routers so
there's a significant chance the ISP have recommended configuration settings that you can use.

Oh please. I am well aware of what to enter in terms of the ISP credentials and settings having set up
scores of domestic routers. My problem is in how to run the application (presumably CPE) that
allows me to enter the details. I need an installation program to run or an IP address to point my
browser at.

Hi,

Is this a new device or a used one ? if it's new I reckon it must have dhcp service enabled and if
you connect a PC with
a terminal like Putty and choose telnet and enter the IP of the router you should access the CLI
and start entering commands. to find out the address of the router it should be in the guides
you've got otherwise do ipconfig to see the IP your PC got and then ping the broadcast address
and you should have a reply from the router.

Regards.

Alain

Thanks for tha Alain. This is a new device. I have not tried to connect with a terminal server as
I thought there must be an easier way. I suspect DHCP is not enabled as I have connected it
to a Windows PC with Ethernet and IPCONFIG does not yield any IP addrress. I have not seen

Hi,
ok then use the console cable provided( the blue one) and connect to PC either to COM
port if you've got serial port or with a USB-serial converter to USB port.fire up hyperterminal
or putty( raw connection) with following settings:

Bits per second : 9600
Data bits : 8
Parity : none
Stop bits : 1
Flow control : none
if you're asked for username/password try cisco/cisco
type show run and paste output here

Regards.

Alain

Thanks again. I have hooked up the the blue cable to the COM1 port of a PC on which
Putty is installed. All settings mentioned above were set but when I hit the 'open' button
my only reward was a beep. No error message or other indication what the issue is.
In case others come here later, I had to set the connection type to serial in the session
settings.

Now I have been able to get CLI access to the router. At least I can now work through
the extensive documentation but I am really in over my head here. I was hoping for a
nice GUI that let me put in the basic credentials, just like domestic routers.

Hi Eugene,
open your browser and type the ip address that you have configured below your
FastEthernet interface:

enable
conf t
int fa0/1
ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
no sh
end
wr
!
conf t
ip http server
ip http authentication local
user admin password mypassw0rd
end
wr
!



open internet explorer or firefox and on the address bar type:

http://1.1.1.1

Hope you enjoy this GUI

Now, I have been able to use the Putty to enter the CLI interface of my router. After
running the initial configuration setup, what is the next step?

I have gone through that process (although i was made to understand that
cisco 887 has dhcp activated by default), connected a computer to the router's
FE interface but was unable to obtain an IP. how can I complete the
configuration of the router from a web browser since my computer was unable
to obtain an Ip address from my new router.

Can you post dhcp configuration on your router?
Also attach configuration of port where you connected PC, if that port is L2
port then attach configuration of respective VLAN interface.

Hi Dubem

Yes, I saw that some routers was delivered with default configuration
where DHCP server was configured, but as I can see your
configuration is absolutely clear.

So here is step-by-step how to configure DHCP server on cisco
router.
http://www.firewall.cx/cisco-technical-knowledgebase/cisco-
routers/812-cisco-router-dhcp-config.html

Do not forget to configure IP address on interfaces of your router to
allow DHCP to provide IP addreses to hosts on that segment.

Thanks grana.

I was able to configure DHCP and LAN computers can receive
IP. However, I have been unable to access the internet.
The internet cable is plugged into the FE WAN (4) port while the
LAN is connected to FE LAN 0.

I used SETUP on console to assign 192.168.0.1 Ip to the router
but i cannot still access the router through the web browser.
The SMNP did not configure successfully because I was
required to use SNMPV3.

Please help me with support that can get me connected to the
internet and allow me continue the router's configuration through
a web browser.

You did not configure NAT, that is reason why your local LAN

I noticed that you have no routing configured, just RIP. I do not
think that you run RIP with your ISP, probably you were just
testing some configuration.
Remove RIP and configure static default route toward
internet.

no router rip
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Fa4 41.203.YY.XX
- IP address 41.203.YY.XX should be IP which ISP assigned
to interface toward your router, your next-hop.

If you are really struggling with the command line you could
try SDM (
http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?
mdfid=281795035&softwareid=283768243&release=2.5&rel
ind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest ). SDM is a GUI
based tool for managing routers - It is a bit more user friendly
than the HTTP interface. It is a retired product these days
though - it is fine for basic stuff though.

Thaks guys, I went on vacation and resumed a couple of

What steps should I take to configure the wireless features
on my Cisco 881 router. Please help. I appreciate your
support so far.
Thanks
27-May-2013 16:49 (in response to Dubemeneh)
If you have been handed a Cisco router with a router port, a
lan switch and an access point all in one, I have to agree with
mfurnival and suggest to use Cisco SDM software if this
is your first experiance with Cisco. If you still want to use the
CLI, then you can use the example below.

* I don't see any radio interfaces in the configurations above.
Are you sure the model you ordered came with integrated
antennas?

! Create an SSID and broadcast:
dot11 ssid MY_SSID
vlan 1
authentication open
authentication key-management wpa
guest-mode
wpa-psk ascii MY_PASSWORD

! Configure the physical interface, assuming you have a
Dot11Radio0 interface
interface Dot11Radio0
no shutdown
no ip address
encryption vlan 1 mode ciphers tkip
ssid MY_SSID

! Configure a subinterface
interface Dot11Radio0.1
encapsulation dot1Q 1 native
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 subscriber-loop-control
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled
bridge-group 1 block-unknown-source
no bridge-group 1 source-learning
no bridge-group 1 unicast-flooding

! Configure a BVI, where x.x.x.x x.x.x.x is your LAN gateway IP
address and subnet mask
interface BVI1
ip address x.x.x.x x.x.x.x
ip nat inside
ip virtual-reassembly

Thanks Danel and Mfurnival. I tried using the SDM and see
what I got:

THIS IS AN UNSUPPORTED ROUTER. SDM WILL BE
CLOSED AS A RESULT.

I visited cisco's website and found out that my router is not
listed to use SDM. My router is 800 series.
I also need to configure Port forwarding on this router and it
will be nice if i can use a web-based tool to manage my
router.
The router could not also be managed using the IP address
when it is typed on the browser's address. It only prompts for
username and password once I enter them, a blank page
displays on the browser.

If you know of any other web-based or GUI tool please help
me with information.

Hi Emma,

Check the Network properties of each computer on your LAN,
and ensure that Obtain an IP address automatically is
selected. Also ensure that Obtain DNS server address
automatically is selected.

Thanks you all to your timely response. i got the problem
solved. the problem was not from my LAN, every devices in
the LAN got appropritate IP from DHCP and can ping my
WAN interface IP, only that NAT was not function properly
even though i was correctly configured; but this device has a
unique statment which needed to be add to my nat
inforamtion before nat would ever work well and that is
"reversal" i arrive at that by using ? at the end of every
command i entered to the router for me to see more useful
commands availlable. as a matter of fact the moment i add
that, the problem solved every one can connect to the
internet. the command "reversal" at the end of NAT overload
statement permint NAT in - NAT out on my WAN interface.
