Changing the WAN IP address on a Cisco 17xx

[ggiusti]

Could someone help me out with reconfiguring my WAN IP (ISP's edge router) address on my Cisco 1721? My ISP is changing the IP on their edge router.

I have little knowledge of configurating this box, but all the help you could give me would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,

The config from the other post is correct BUT don't forget to write to memory after config change i.e. write memory or (short hand) wr m
