Quick Cisco IOS Reference

As a general word of caution, if you have no experience with Cisco or other CLI based router admin (such as linux and red hat derivatives), I would not recommend diving in unless you have a lot of spare time on your hands in the event that you accidentally delete all routing tables or cause other serious problems!

Even in a professional business environment, due to some differences between IOS and hardware versions and the need to reboot for some settings to take effect, it’s always a good idea to perform changes after hours when critical business operations will not be interrupted by internet or service downtime.
