anchor.diff:  * "exit" -- Go back up one "level" in your configuration. For example if you are configuring a sub-interface and want to return back to the interface level, just type exit.
   * "shut" -- Brings down an interface.
   * "no XXXX" -- Removes or takes away a command. For example, if you type "no shut", then it will bring UP an interface. Likewise, "no ip pim sparse-mode" will REMOVE the "ip pim sparse-mode" from the configuration. 
  +* "switchport access" -- This tells the router to associate a physical interface to a particular vlan.
  +
  +A couple notes on wifi connection:
  +You'll notice there exists an entry "interface Dot11Radio0.10". This means you are creating a sub-interface off the 802.11 wireless interface (that's where the ".10" comes in). The number after the period is for the vlan number for which the subinterface should be part of. You also use this vlan number with your dot1Q encapulation command. See the sample configuration.  
  +"guest mode" means that the SSID is broadcast (you'll pick it up on your access point list on your laptop/phone).

  +To get started, connect to the router through putty, and follow these instructions:
   
   . Execute "write erase" first (to restore factory configuration).
  -* Next, "enable" to go into priviledged mode.
  -* Then, "show running-config" to see what the initial configuration looks like. 
  -* Lastly, "config t" so you can start changing settings (you should see the '#' prompt which means you can now issue commands).
  -
  -Once you are in this mode, type in the commands from the attached configuration file.

negative.code: This allows you to configure the router over a serial protocol. Use putty to connect, and choose Serial for the method. For my setup, it was COM3 and 9600 baud.
  To connect to CME you'll need to have two physical interfaces available on your server. One for public IP traffic, and the other for CME New Release traffic. 
  
  == Step 3: The Big Picture
  A high level overview of how your network topology can look is as follows. You will have two separate networks (VLANs), one for public internet traffic, and the other specifically for CME NR traffic. The Vlan IDs (10 and 20, below) correspond to the sample configuration at the end.
  
  You'll create two VLANs, one for public IP traffic ("Vlan 10"), and the other for CME New Release traffic ("Vlan 20"). For wireless router models, you'll add the wireless connection to be part of Vlan 10.  Assign two of the fast ethernet ports to vlan 10 (FA0 and FA1), and the other two (FA2 and FA3) to Vlan 20. This will allow you to have two physical connections to public IP and two to New Release. You can always attach a networking switch to a vlan 10 port to expand internet access to other devices.  To have the appropriate IPs assigned to each VLAN, you'll create two DHCP pools for which IPs can come. On vlan 10, you can stay with the traditional 192.168.1.x range and on vlan 20, you must use the range that the CME assigns you. 
  
  Note for Wireless users: In order to get wireless working propertly, you'll need to create a both a sub interface and a "bridge group". At a high level, a bridge group allows you to connect the physical interface with the wireless interface into the same group. This is important: you won't assign an IP address range to vlan 10, just tell it to be part of the bridge group and with "no ip address". Then, in the bridge group configuration, you will assign the IP range for which the DHCP pool exits. However, for vlan 20 (because it's not part of a bridge group with a wireless interface), you will assign an ip range that matches what CME tells you. 
  This is evident in the sample configuration. 
  
  == Step 4: Configure Router / "Cisco 101"
  
  To connect to the router, you do not use the Netgear/Linksys approach of pointing your browser to 192.168.1.1. Instead, you need to connect via the serial "rollover" cable.
  
  . Once you connect to the router, there will be a few key commands that you'll use over and over:
  * "write erase" -- This will erase the "running-config" and the "startup-config". These are the file names of the two configuration files on the router.
