RE: Speed Tip
Hi Folks, For the sake of completeness, please take the following command into account also: no logging console Since during configuration of Layer 2/Layer 3 protocols, the absence of the above command can slow one down considerably.

RE: Speed Tip
Because all routers are connected to the Communication Server through their console port, and by default, logging to console is on. So, for instance, when one configures the frame-relay pvc's on the router interfaces, all dlci state changes show on the command line while one may be in the process of typing-in commands. Similarly, any interface state changes are reflected on the command line. This may cause some distractions and may prevent one from gaining some vital time advantage. It was for this reason that I had recommended that the command "no logging console" should be typed in initially to avoid any unnecessary distractions when setting up various tasks. However, it may make more sense to return to the default status (i.e logging console), if one is lucky enough to sail through to the troubleshooting part.

Re: Speed Tip
I was thinking about this earlier. A thought I had was to also make up a list of all the router interfaces and their corresponding IP addresses, and put them in a list like so: ip host r1s0 10.1.1.4 ip host r2eo 172.16.1.1 ip host r5t0 172.16.2.1 ip host r6fe1 192.168.6.1 r1=router1 r2=router2 etc s=serial e= ethernet t=token-ringfe=fast-ethernet etc Once you have compiled a list of all the interfaces and their IP addresses according to your addressing scheme, paste them into each router. You can then ping quickly and accurately, anywhere you want by typing 'ping r1s0' for example, and not having to cross reference a table every time you need to lookup an IP address. To make it intuitive, I would also use the numbering on the octal cables to correspond too. ie: cable 1 goes to router1 and so on. Hitting '2' at the terminal server will put you at router2's prompt etc. How's that for a tip?
