Methods for Configuring the ATM Switch Router
The ATM switch router defaults to a working configuration suitable for most networks. However, you

Note
If your Telnet station or SNMP network management workstation is on a different network from the
switch, you must add a static routing table entry to the routing table. See

Terminal Line Configuration (Catalyst 8540 MSR)
The Catalyst 8540 MSR has a console terminal line that might require configuration. For line
configuration, you must first set up the line for the terminal or the asynchronous device attached to it.
For a complete description of configuration tasks and commands used to set up your terminal line and
settings, refer to the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide and Dial Solutions
Configuration Guide.

You can connect a modem to the console port. The following settings on the modem are required:
•
Enable auto answer mode
•
Suppress result codes
You can configure your modem by setting the DIP switches on the modem or by connecting the modem
to terminal equipment. Refer to the user manual provided with your modem for the correct configuration
information.

information.
Note
Because there are no hardware flow control signals available on the console port, the console port
terminal characteristics should match the modem settings.

Terminal Line Configuration (Catalyst 8510 MSR and LightStream 1010)
The ATM switch has two types of terminal lines: a console line and an auxiliary line. For line
configuration, you must first set up the lines for the terminals or other asynchronous devices attached to
them. For a complete description of configuration tasks and commands used to set up your lines,
modems, and terminal settings, refer to the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide and Dial
Solutions Configuration Guide.

Configuration Prerequisites
Consider the following information you might need before you configure your ATM switch router:
•
If you want to configure a BOOTP server to inform the switch of its Ethernet IP address and mask,
you need the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the Ethernet port.
you need the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the Ethernet port.
•
If you want to configure a new ATM address for the switch (an autoconfigured ATM address is
assigned by Cisco), you need an ATM address assigned by your system administrator.

•
If you are not using BOOTP, you need an IP address and a netmask address.
