Changing DHCP:

Router(config)# ip dhcp pool DHCP-POOL 
Router(config-dhcp)# no dns-server 192.168.10.2 83.256.23.424
Router(config-dhcp)# dns-server 192.168.10.2 “another DNS server IP”
Router(config-dhcp)# exit


Adding/changing Interface IP

Configure the Fast Ethernet WAN Interface

This procedure applies only to the Cisco 851 and Cisco 871 router models. Perform these steps to configure the Fast Ethernet interface, beginning in global configuration mode:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1

interface type number
Example:
Router(config)# interface fastethernet 4
Router(config-int)#

Enters the configuration mode for a Fast Ethernet WAN interface on the router.

Step 2

ip address ip-address mask
Example:
Router(config-int)# ip address 192.168.12.2 

255.255.255.0
Router(config-int)#

Sets the IP address and subnet mask for the specified Fast Ethernet interface.

Step 3

no shutdown
Example:
Router(config-int)# no shutdown
Router(config-int)#

Enables the Ethernet interface, changing its state from administratively down to administratively up.

Step 4

exit
Example:
Router(config-int)# exit
Router(config)#

Exits configuration mode for the Fast Ethernet interface and returns to global configuration mode.

Use a TFTP Server to Backup and Restore a Configuration

This is a step-by-step approach to copy a configuration from a router to a TFTP server, and back to another router. Before you proceed with this method, make sure you have a TFTP server on the network to which you have IP connectivity.

  1. At the Router> prompt, issue the enable command, and provide the required password when prompted.The prompt changes to Router#, which indicates that the router is now in privileged mode.
  2. Copy the running configuration file to the TFTP server:
    CE_2#copy running-config tftp:
    Address or name of remote host []? 64.104.207.171
    Destination filename [ce_2-confg]? backup_cfg_for_my_router
    !!
    1030 bytes copied in 2.489 secs (395 bytes/sec)
    CE_2#
  3. Open the configuration file with a text editor. Search for and remove any line that starts with “AAA”.Note: This step is to remove any security commands that can lock you out of the router.
  4. Copy the configuration file from the TFTP server to a new router in privileged (enable) mode which has a basic configuration.
    Router#copy tftp: running-config
    Address or name of remote host []? 64.104.207.171
    Source filename []? backup_cfg_for_my_router
    Destination filename [running-config]?
    Accessing tftp://10.66.64.10/backup_cfg_for_my_router...
    Loading backup_cfg_for_router from 64.104.207.171 (via FastEthernet0/0): !
    [OK - 1030 bytes]
    
    1030 bytes copied in 9.612 secs (107 bytes/sec)
    CE_2#
