Hello to all, 877 have just brought a shindy but I have problems to form the fastethernet, on having tried to form an ip address it(he,she) appears:

IP addresses may not be configured on L2 links.

Since I can solve it? I have tried to use the SDM but it(he,she) does not assign me ip for DHCP. Thank you very much

Hi,

Only the Ethernet WAN interface can have an IP directly assigned. The LAN interfaces need to be assigned to a VLAN, which has the IP address.

Have a look at the following and post again if you still have trouble.

and this link has a complete sample config:

Hello Andrew, I continue with the same mistake, not because it(he,she) does not warn me: (
