All language subtitles for 7. Cisco IOS

Cisco IOS (originally Internetwork
1

operating system.
2

is a family of software used on most Cisco Systems routers and current Cisco network switches.(Earlier switches ran CatOS.)
3

IOS is a package of routing, switching, internetworking and telecommunications functions integrated
4

into multitasking operating system.
5

And let's take a look to the IOS features.
6

Cisco IOS is located in flash
7

Can be updated
Copied to valotile RAM
Provides software – hardware communication
8

The Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) is the primary user interface used for configuring, monitoring,
9

and maintaining Cisco devices.
CLI can be accessed using ;
10

Console
Telnet
SSH
AUX
11

Every Cisco router or a switch has a console port (also known
12

as the management port) on its back side.
13

As in here Console port is used to connect a computer directly to a router or switch and manage
14

the router or switch since there is no display
15

device for
16

or switch . Normally router
17

Console port
18

is a RJ45 port.
A special type of cable,
19

known as roll over cable is used to connect the Serial/COM port of the computer to the router
20

or switch console port. One end of the cable is RJ49 type and a DB9 to RJ45
21

converter is molded on the other end.
22

And let's go with the telnet, an access method to CLI.
23

Telnet is a protocol that allows you to connect to remote devices over a  network. Using telnet
24

client software on your computer,
25

you can make a connection to a remote device. In most cases,
26

you'll need to log into the remote host, which requires that you have an account on that system. By default,
27

telnet does not encrypt any data sent over the connection including passwords. Because of serious security
28

concerns.
29

it is recommended to use SSH instead of Telnet.SSH, also known as Secure Shell, is a network
30

that provides administrators with a secure way to access a remote networking device. Secure
31

Shell provides strong authentication and secure encrypted data communication between two network
32

devices
33

Because of that it is always preferred over Telnet.
34

Terminal emulation programs are Used for accessing to a device using console port, telnet or SSH.
35

Popular programs are ;
Putty
Secure CRT
Hyper Terminal
36

Here is Putty window, if you want to for example communicate to a device you enter
37

the host name or the IP address of the device and you choose the connection type in here whether its
38

Telnet, SSH ,serial etc.
39

Then you click the open and communicate with device.
40

IOS has four different mod guys and they are ;
User EXEC
Privileged
Global Configuration
specific configuration
41

User EXEC Mode is the first mode a user has access to
42

after logging into the router. The user mode can be identified by the >
43

prompt following the router name.
44

This mode allows the user to execute only the basic commands, such as those that show the system's status.
45

Privileged mode mode allows users to view the system configuration, restart
46

the system, and enter router configuration mode. Privileged mode
47

also allows all the commands
48

that are available in user mode
49

Global Configuration mode mode allows users to modify the running system configuration
50

this mod has various submodes, starting with global configuration mode, and they are known as specific
51

configuration modes.If you want to navigate between defferent IOS modes
52

We have some options, for example if you're in the user exec mode and want to navigate to
53

privilege exec mode we're using the Enable command.
54

If you're in the Enable mode and if you want to switch to the config mod we're using the conf t
55

configure terminal command and we're in the global config
56

And if you want to switch to your specific interface configuration mode for example you type interface
57

and the interfaces name on the config mode basically and you get into the config interface mode. Note :
58

exit command is used for passing to the upper mode always.
59

So let's take a look to the IOS features . IOS provides context sensitive help.
60

Please keep in mind that question mark is your best friend always.
61

All right let's take a look to the screen and let's say that we are trying to type clock set command
62

instead of typing clock
63

If I type for example C L O and k Ios is warning us and saying ask that this is an unknown command
64

for example. for example if you could not remember the commands clock
65

But if you just remind CL if you type C L and put a question mark IOS shows you the commands
66

that you can use in that IOS mode. for example if you type clock the command is right now.
67

it is OK.
68

And if you just hit the enter it again warns you that that is an incomplete command because we're
69

going to use the clock set as you know for example after cloak and you type.
70

The question mark and hit enter it's showing us that what commands more we can use after that command
71

for example it's offering us the set command and giving us some clues what the command is doing rightly.
72

And it's saying that set the time and they for example.
73

So let's go ahead with the context sensitive help
74

And for example we type clock set
75

And the clock for example, then if we had the question mark again, it's also saying us that we can use the
76

day of the month or we can type month.
77

keyword, All right clock set

If you want to encrypt all your passwords in your show run output we have a great command. we can use
125

service password encryption.

This command to encrypt all passwords on the show run out for example in here.
