Task 2. Configuring Basic Cisco IOS Software
Apply a basic-running configuration to the NAS:
• Configuring the Host Name, Enable Secret Password, and Time Stamps, page 2-22
• Configuring Local AAA Security, page 2-23
• Setting Up a Log In Banner, page 2-24
• Configuring Basic IP, page 2-25
Tips Periodically save the configuration by using the copy running-config startup-config
command.
Configuring the Host Name, Enable Secret Password, and Time Stamps
Assign a host name to the NAS, specify an enable secret password, and turn on time stamps:
• A host name allows you to distinguish between different network devices.
• A secret enable password allows you to prevent unauthorized configuration changes.
• Encrypted passwords in the configuration file add greater security to the NAS.
• Time stamps help you trace debug output for testing connections. Not knowing exactly when an
event occurs prevents you from tracing debug output for testing conditions.
Step 1 Enter the following commands in global configuration mode:
hostname 5800-NAS
enable secret
yourpassword
service password-encryption
service timestamps debug datetime msec
service timestamps log datetime msec
Note Do not use the enable password command.
Step 2 Log in with the enable secret password. The show privilege command shows the current security
privilege level.
5800-NAS# disable
5800-NAS> enable
Password:
5800-NAS# show privilege
Current privilege level is 15
5800-NAS#
