Configure IGRP routing? [yes]:

Your IGRP autonomous system number [1]: 15

Configure RIP routing? [no]:

Configure IPX? [no]: yes

Configure XNS? [no]:

Configure Apollo? [no]:

Step 10

Save your settings to NVRAM. (See the “Save the Running Configuration to NVRAM” section on page 34.) Save the
configuration settings that you created in the router using the configuration mode and the setup facility. If you fail to
do this, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.

Configuration Information for the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2

If the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 and an I/O controller are both installed in the same system, the console and auxiliary ports on the
I/O controller are used and the console and auxiliary ports on the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 are disabled by Cisco IOS.

Note

Both the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 and the I/O controller console ports are available from the ROM monitor (ROMmon),
however, the console port on the NPE-G1or NPE-G2 will be disabled once the system has completed loading the Cisco
IOS image.

If the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 is used without an I/O controller, the console and auxiliary ports on the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 are used.

Configure an Auxiliary Port to Receive Console Port Messages for the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2

If you choose to have console port messages routed to the auxiliary port, use the Cisco IOS command terminal monitor on the
auxiliary port on which you desire to receive console messages.

Router# terminal monitor

Configure the Native Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces on the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2

The NPE-G1or NPE-G2 reports both the RJ-45 and GBIC interface ports as GigabitEthernet 0/1, GigabitEthernet 0/2, and
GigabitEthernet 0/3. Before configuring either port type, you must first use the media-type interface command to select the
media type, either the GBIC (gbic) for NPe-G1, SFP (sfp) for NPE-G2, or RJ-45 (rj45) port.

Note

The Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 do not support the Inter-Switch Link (ISL) VLAN
encapsulation protocol. We recommend that you use the IEEE 802.1Q VLAN encapsulation protocol as an alternative.
Where an application requires the use of ISL, this can be provided by the Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet port adapters
or I/O controllers.

Note

The RJ-45 port is the default media.

Change the Media Type of the Native Gigabit Ethernet SFP, GBIC, or RJ-45 Ports

To be able to use a particular media port for the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 or I/O Controller GE/E, use Cisco IOS to select the media
type. This is done by using the media-type interface command:

media-type { sfp | gbic | rj45 }

Example:

interface GigabitEthernet 0/1

media-type rj45
