1. Attach a rollover cable to the PC’s COM port and then use either the Console port or the Auxiliary port on the router. The Console port is preferred because messages from the router are logged on this line. The second way is to use the Auxiliary port for remote access and can also be used if the Console port is damaged or not responding. The third way to access the CLI is through Telnet. 2. The user EXEC can only use a certain amount of commands and the user EXEC can’t configure anything on the router. The privileged EXEC can use every command and can configure the router anyway that person wants. 3. First it’s the platform in which the image runs on, second is the special features that are supported in the image, and last is where the image runs or whether it’s become a zipped or compressed file. 4. ROMMON is not IOS, so it doesn’t accept IOS commands, and it cannot route IP packets. The ROMMON software is stored in a ROM chip instead of flash, so it should always be available. The other alternative OS is called the boot ROM IOS, or sometimes RX-boot mode. Second is the boot ROM software which is also found in the ROM chip, the only difference is that boot ROM software is an IOS image. Finally the IOS operating environment is when the router has a fully functional set of features and can be configured for normal operations.
