Router interface description table
This table helps network engineers to quickly identify the routing direction of each interface in a
complex network environment.
Router R1 (HQ)
Interface FastEthernet0/0
Interface FastEthernet0/1
Interface Serial0/1/0
Router R2 (Branch-A)
Interface FastEthernet0/0
Interface FastEthernet0/1
Interface Serial0/1/0
Router>enable
Router#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
//configure router hostname
Router(config)#hostname RouterHQ
//configure interface FastEthernet0/0
RouterHQ(config)#int F0/0

After you have successfully configured the two router interfaces, the connection between the interfaces
are established and shown in green colour.
Finally, we save the running configuration to NVRAM so the routers can load the configuration
automatically next time when power on.
