Cisco Router Command Quick Reference

Two basic levels of login: Standard Read Mode (prompt looks like router-name>) Enable Mode (Prompt looks like router-name#)

You only ever need to type enough of the command to distinguish from other commands You can always press tab to finish the command you start typing If you are locked up by router output enter: <ctrl><shift><6><x> ? is the universal help command To see what commands are available beyond an initial command enter: Initial command ? (example show ?) To save configuration changes: copy running-config startup-config To save configuration to a TFTP Server enter: copy running-config tftp then follow the prompts Some good show commands to utilize: Show Dial Show IP Route Show IP Protocol Show version To see debug output from a telnet session you must first enter: Terminal monitor To reboot the router enter: reload

Always remember where you are by the router prompt

Since CISCO routers are common place in WAN connectivity, and they offer such extended capabilities we have chosen to address them directly. This topic is not meant to be an introduction to the CISCO IOS but a discussion of packet filter implementation using CISCO IOS. For detailed information on CISCO IOS see appendix A References and Recommended Reading. CISCO routers implement packet filters as Access Control List (ACL) not to be confused with Windows NT ACLs. Basically put you create sets of ACLs and then apply them to the desired router interface as Access Groups. Here is a sample configuration: The first set of access list created describes the connections allowed into the network from the outside.

List 102 access-list 102 permit ip any any #Allow all IP connections access-list 102 permit icmp any any #Allow all ICMP connections access-list 102 permit 47 any any #Allow all General Encapsulation Protocol number 47 for VPNs and PPTP #You dont see it, or need to enter it, but there is always an implicit Deny all Else as the last statement in #each ACL. Once these access list are entered they can be applied to the desired interfaces to provide protection. This is a point of confusion for many people. The best rule to remember the proper assignment of ACLs to router interfaces is OUT means out of the router interface and IN means into the router interface. Keeping this in mind consider the following configuration. A T-1 connection to the Internet, which is connected to the router Serial 0 interface, and the internal network is connected to router Ethernet 0 Interface. To apply the most restrictive ACLs described you could assign access list 101 to Ethernet interface 0 out by Interface ethernet 0 ip access-group 101 out These directives invoke access list 101 directives for all packets leaving the router destine for the network on interface ethernet 0. To apply the least restrictive ACLs described you could assign access list 102 to Ethernet interface 0 in for connections leaving your internal network. Interface ethernet 0 ip access-group 101 in These directives invoke access list 102 directives for all packets entering the router destine for anywhere. Access list can be tricky. Some key points to remember are: Access lists are evaluated from the top down, and once a rule is meet the packet is delt with accordingly. There is always an implicit deny all else at the end of each ACL. It is best to construct and invoke access list from the terminal rather than an telnet session since you could quite easily implement an access list that would terminate your connection. Test your access list completely.
