7705 SAR system configuration process

The following table lists the tasks that are required to navigate the Command Line Interface (CLI), configure basic router and system parameters, perform operational functions with directory and file management, and configure boot option parameters.

Each chapter in this book is presented in an overall logical configuration flow. Each section describes a software area and provides CLI syntax and command usage to configure parameters for a functional area.
