SAVE ROUTER CONFIGURATION INTO NVRAM
Always
remember to save running configuration into nvram , this is because
right now you are working in Ram and if you forgot to save
configuration ,
then you have to work it again .
So better is use this command –
Router#copy running-config startup-config
Destination filename [startup-config]?
Building configuration...
[OK]
Router#

PING
- Once you network is ready , now check its ping or not .
- If it ping , it means that pc can communicate with the network devices.
