Summary The Integrated Services Router (ISR) is a good choice
for small to medium businesses and ISP-managed customers.
ISRs can be initially configured using SDM or the router IOS CLI.
When using the CLI, “show” commands verify configuration elements.
An installation plan can minimize disruption to a network when new devices are being added.
Documentation is necessary, both when configuring and when installing network devices.
Switches are assigned IP addresses by configuring them on the management interface, VLAN 1.
