Preface

Cisco 800 Fast Step software simplifies the setup and monitoring of Cisco routers. It runs on Microsoft

Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows NT 4.0 personal computer systems. The

Cisco Fast Step software CD-ROM is included with the router. It is also available on Cisco Connection

Online at http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/faststep.

The product consists of two applications:

Setup, a wizard-based application that leads the end user step-by-step through the router

•

configuration process, providing initial configuration, testing, and troubleshooting.

Monitor, a graphical user interface for the router, providing on-going status reports, alarms, and

•

troubleshooting.

This document provides instructions for customizing the Setup application. The Monitor application

cannot be customized and is not discussed further in this document.

You, as a service provider, can develop Cisco 800 Fast Step configuration (CFG) and Cisco 800 Fast

Step IOS template (TPL) files to control the behavior of the Cisco 800 Fast Step Setup application. In

addition, you can build your own, custom, installation disk set or CD-ROM.

The major sections of this publication are as follows:

Chapter 1, "Introduction to Design," describes the end-user processes and the CFG and TPL files.

Chapter 2, "CFG File Development," describes the process and some of the features of CFG file

development.

Chapter 3, "Template File Development," describes the process and features of TPL file development.

Chapter 4, "Custom Software Installation," describes features, such as the process for developing a

custom installation disk or CD-ROM, Belle Systems support, and so forth.

Appendix A, "Additional Flags and Parameters," describes CFG flags that are not documented in other

chapters of this document.
