Open the wrapper out of the router, you need to base the router configuration, including time, access password, IP address, etc., after the initial configuration, we can telnet to manage and configure the router. But this first configuration needs to be done through the port of the console on the router. How do we connect to the router when we initially configure it? See, because the router's console line connected to the PC is RS232 commonly known as the 9-pin serial port (female) interface, and now the notebook is basically not equipped with this interface, so we have to be equipped with a USB to RS232 (male) of the conversion module or a line (buy it by itself, and need to install the driver).

When the console line is connected, the router is power-up and the HyperTerminal program is used to connect to the router on the computer. Because Microsoft does not integrate HyperTerminal this program after the XP operating system, therefore we need to use the third party program, for example Securecr,putty and so on. Here I take putty as an example, after starting putty, select the parameters, and then connect the router.

After the connection is successful, you will see the iOS (Internetwork Operating System) information in the console after the router has been post. When the router completes the self-test and extracts iOS to run in memory, it will be prompted to enter setup mode. The router will use some problems to guide you through the basic configuration of the router, such as router name, login password and so on. However, we will generally press CTRL + C to exit Setup mode to enter the command line mode for router configuration.
