Cisco Configuration Professional

Configuring a Cisco Router for CCP

Step 1.

Connect to your router using Telnet, SSH, or through the console.

Enter global configuration mode using this command:

Router(config)#enable

Router(config)#

Step 2.

If HTTP and HTTPS are enabled and configured to use nonstandard port numbers, you can skip this step and use the already configured port number.

Router(config)# ip http server

Router(config)# ip http secure-server

Router(config)# ip http authentication local

Step 3.

Create User with Privilege level 15

Router(config)# username <username> privilege 15 password 0 <password>

Step 4.

Configure SSH and Telnet for local login and privilege level 15

Router(config)# line vty 0 4

Router(config-line)# privilege level 15

Router(config-line)# login local

Router(config-line)# transport input telnet

Router(config-line)# transport input telnet ssh

Router(config-line)# exit

Step 5.

Enable local logging for log monitoring function

Router(config)# logging buffered 51200 warning

Installing CCP

Cisco Configuration Professional is installed directly on to a host machine that will be configuring the network. If you want to install software on the router that is similar there is also Cisco Configuration Express which is installed on the memory of the router.
