Viewing the system status in Cisco is done using commands entered into the console. This also applies to those cases when you need to know the state of the computer boot at a certain moment.
Necessary
- - computer;
- - keyboard.
Instructions
Step 1
In order to find out the workload in Cisco or provide system management functions, use the input of the commands specially designed for this purpose. If you want to see how much the computer's RAM is loaded in Cisco, use the “Router # show proc mem” command, which is entered, of course, without quotes. You will see statistics, which will divide the RAM into two parts: the “Free” part will show you the free available resources, and the “Used” part - the part of the RAM occupied by certain programs. Below will be provided more detailed information regarding the use of this resource.
Step 2
If you need to view the processor load in Cisco, follow the analogy with determining the RAM load. Enter the command “Router # show proc cpu sort”, after which you will also see a table showing the load of this resource on your computer.
Step 3
Use other commands in Cisco to perform specific actions. For example, “write erase Reload” returns the router settings to those they had upon purchase, “Router # show version” displays information about the firmware version of the equipment you are using, “sh run” shows what configuration your device has, while information is viewed by pressing the space bar. The “Debug” command puts you in the system debug mode, “conf t” - in the configuration mode.
Step 4
Learn the basics of working with Cisco based on the commands entered into the console. Once you master them, you can quickly navigate iOS. There are a lot of commands, but it will be enough for you to learn only the most basic ones, after which you should form a certain image about the operation of this system.
