Abstract
This chapter starts with 10 hints and tips for Cisco routers configuration. These tips are extracted from real-life experience with routers and daily issues faced by many network administrators. This chapter also introduces 10 ‘show’ commands that are highly used in troubleshooting and maintenance of Cisco routers-based networks. An important procedure is provided to simulate break key sequence. This procedure comes handy in password recovery when the regular ctrl-break key combination is not working. The last chapter is finally concluded with two simplified procedures for recovering lost passwords in Cisco’s 2600 and 2550 routers.
