Actually you don't waste any time and actually in the long run you will definitely save time. You can write them once on a note pad and then paste them into each router. The one that kills me is going into router config, there is not a shortcut/tab for router so a alias config ro router ospf, copied into each box is gold. ro 5 gets you there, ospf process 5 and I think you are going to have to enter an ospf routing process numerous times rr router rip ri router igrp re router eigrp rb router bgp dpp debug ip packet dpr debug ip route dpc debug ip icmp sir sh ip route - my fav cir clear ip route * the list goes on. ok another one for us in the fat finger club, you know how many times I have typed sh fran map and got churped at by the IOS. Now one alias exec sfm sh fram m pasted into every router gets it done sfp - show fram pvc there is a comprehensive list of alias' is the archives if you are into it I would check it out for ideas. On the subject of notepad, another technique that I have found really useful for learning the IOS. By reading an objective and instead of satisfy the objective using the console and the tab and ? keys. I like to write the config in notepad and then paste it in. Give it a try, example would be bring up a atm connection between RouterA and RouterB bring up an ISDN connection between RouterB and RouterC add a loopback on each router ip all interfaces turn of cdp enable an OSPF process on each router Simple things like this take on a new meaning when it is just you and the notepad. The fun really starts when you get errors and have to think them through. Then fix them in notepad and rerun the config. When you get it done error free it is a good feeling. Don ps I would like to do the lab in notepad and three key aliases exclusivley, but I think I set my sights too high on that one.
