Cisco 871w - Need help in reconfiguring... Not a Cisco Master...

[mmx]

Ok,

My 871w went down and lost all of the flash memory.
I got it Consoled, and transferred the latest .bin file into the flash.

However, I need to install the SDM, and also need to know how to Console a DHCP function, so I can configure using the SDM no console.

Cisco experts how can I do that? I've already downloaded the SDM, but not sure why I can't install it, once installed I want to be DHCP so I can use the SDM GUI.

Really appreciate it.

I would think that it is easier to just configure an ip address on an ethernet interface through the console of your router, put your PC in the same subnet and then fire up SDM to do the rest of your config. No need to do a config for DHCP through the console, you can use SDM to do that for you

This is how you configure an ip address on an interface

>enable
#conf t
#interface fastethernet 0/0
#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
#no shut
#end
#wr memory

put your PC in the same subnet (ex 192.168.1.10 subnet 255.255.255.0), connect your PC with an ethernet cable to the ethernet interface of the router and start setup of SDM. Follow the install steps of the GUI

Last time I used SDM, I had to set the web auth parameters as well.

This will walk you through the entire SDM setup procedure.

Sorry but I still can't do it.

I have the .bin file in flash.

I can get to the prompt and type enable.
But from then it goes no where.

Could someone send me a step-by step? The site didnot help?
I can also re-run a setup if needed?
