== Device Configuration ==

Now you have six inter connected devices. All those devices have no confurations in them and you have to configure them. 

=== Remote Access ===

When you are working in the Virtualbox interface you can't copy and paste commands in to to that interface. You might have experienced this already. What you can do is you can remote log in to your campuslan VM.

'''Windows'''
 - Download and run ​Putty
 - type your campuslan VM's IP address in the hostname text box. set the port as 22
 - Click open and You will ask the username and Password of your vm. Provide them and You will be able to remote login to your linux machine 

'''Mac'''

 - Open a terminal
 - Type ssh learn@<Your campuslan VM's IP address>
 - Give password and you will have a remote login to your linux machine 

=== Log in to the the devices ===

In dynagen topology script you have to give a name to each device and there is a feature to assign a port to the console port of a particular device. Following are the device name and the console port number of your network setup.

||= Device Name =||= Console Port Number =||
||!AccessRt||2100||
||!CampusCore||2200||
||FacACore||2300||
||FacBCore||2400||
||FacASw||2500||
||FacBSw||2600||

You can use this port to log in to the device's console port. Use the following code
{{{
telnet localhost <console port number>
}}}
Now you have log in to your device. You can start configuring the device.

=== Initial Configurations ===
Before configure the devices for the network setup. Let's configure some initial settings in the router. If your router is boot up when you logged in you will be prompted to the following line.
{{{
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]:
}}}
Type '''no''' (Might have to press the '''Enter''' key again) to go to the user mode of the router. Prompt will look as following.
{{{
Router>
}}}
In the user mode of the router give the command '''enable''' to go the privileged mode. Prompt will change to following
{{{
Router#
}}}
To add configurations you have to go configuration mode. Type '''config terminal'''. Note the prompt change.
{{{
Router(config)#
}}}

You can now start making configurations.
 - First thing you have to add is the hostname of the device. Hostname is the device's identification. In this Lab device name is the same as host name. (Eg. CampusCore switch's hostname is CampusCore). Use the following command
{{{
hostname <device name>
}}}
You will see your prompt change from Router to the hostname you add.
 - Then let's give a enable secret. Which is a password you set when you go to the privileged mode from the user mode. We will use the '''class password''' as the enable secret
{{{
enable secret <class password>
}}}
 - Next you can add a banner to your device. This will display every time you log in to the device
{{{
banner motd @ Unauthorized Access is Prohibited! @
}}}
 - Then lets's configure the line console which are the console port settings
    * Go to line console config mode
{{{
line console 0
}}}
    * Enable login authentication. Make sure not to save or exit the router after this command without executing the next command. 
{{{
login
}}}
    * Set the password
{{{
password <class password>
}}}
 - Finally let's enable ssh (version 2) in the device. Type '''exit''' to go back to previous mode (config mode) from line console config mode
    *  Configure a domain name. Use '''learn.ac.lk''' for this lab.
{{{
ip domain name learn.ac.lk
}}}
