router

Use this command to enter router mode for the global or specified VRF router.

Syntax

router [name]

Parameters

name (Optional) Specifies the name of a user-defined VRF. The default value is global.

Defaults

If no name is specified, this command enters router mode for the global router.

Mode

System configuration command mode.

Usage

This command can be used, but is not required, when configuring the global router. Entering the configure command from system configuration command mode places you in router configuration command mode for the global router.

Once in router command mode, use the configure command to enter router configuration command mode for this VRF router context.

The prompt for any VRF router name longer than 8 characters will only display the last 8 characters proceeded by an asterisk character (*).

Example

This example shows how to enter router configuration mode for the nat1 VRF router:

System(rw)->router nat1
System(rw-nat1)->configure
System(rw-nat1-config)->
