Catalyst 4224 Access Gateway Switch Software Configuration Guide

When you start a Catalyst 4224, it automatically detects the voice network
modules and VICs that have been installed. The first time you use a
Catalyst 4224, you need to configure each voice port that you want to enable. If
you replace a card after you configure each port, the gateway will recognize the
new hardware component and use the previous configuration settings.
If you replace a module that was already configured, the gateway recognizes it and
brings up the interface in the existing configuration.
To configure the Catalyst 4224 to boot in a new configuration, perform the
following steps:
Step 1 Connect a terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software to the console
port on the Catalyst 4224. Refer to the Catalyst 4224 Access Gateway Switch
Hardware Installation Guide for instructions.
Step 2 Power on the Catalyst 4224. If the current configuration is no longer valid, you
see the following prompt within about one minute:
Would you like to enter the initial dialog? [yes/no]:
Step 3 Enter no. You now enter the normal operating mode of the gateway.
Note If the current configuration is valid, you automatically enter normal
operating mode.
Step 4 After a few seconds, you see the user EXEC prompt (c4224>). Enter enable and
the password to enter privileged EXEC mode, as follows:
c4224> enable
Password: <password>
c4224# enable
Configuration changes can be made only in privileged EXEC mode. When you
enter privileged EXEC mode, the prompt changes to the host name followed by a
pound sign (#), such as
c4224#.
Step 5 Enter the commands required to configure the VICs installed in the Catalyst 4224.
Step 6 When you finish configuring the voice interfaces, return to global configuration
mode using the exit command and return to enable mode by pressing Ctrl-Z.
