C1111-8P DayZero setup not successful

[pro100bear]

Hi,

First time Cisco user. Have a question about C1111-8P. I would like to use this router just like a regular router with no any additional license. DHCP, DNS, and NAT. That is basically it.
I am trying to run DayZero setup, but it never finishes successfully. It did not work on both 16 and 17 versions.
Currently I am trying this set this up on my internal network, so when I do factory reset it automatically gets 10.0.1.175 on WAN port and I can login. But after this DayZero setup, the router is not reachable from LAN and WAN. DHCP is also not working after this setup.

Though I was able to make it work via console, I would really like to figure out why DayZero setup is not working as expected. With my knowledges it would be the best way to use this router.

It looks like it should be a very simple process, but something goes wrong ... Would appreciate any help.
Thank you.

Hello,

I cannot really tell from the screenshots what configuration sequence you used. Did you set up a DHCP pool and username/password first as shown in the document below ?

Hi,

That is right. I did everything as in this manual. But something goes wrong... It is not getting an IP address on WAN port for some reasons.

[pro100bear]

In console I can see this line:

AUTOINSTALL: script execution not successful for Gi0/0/1.

Can it mean something?

One of the screens I stuck with. With these settings, WAN is not getting IP address

Since you have mentioned you have access to the console (you looking to work day zero-config) so reset the device to the factory.

Capture the Logs in the console and post them here from the boot to till it fails.

is your ISP router or NTU give GHCP on the Lan ? or PPPoE ? (can you show us the bit you worked on command line manually configured working config).

Thank you!

Just copy everything? No need to run a special command?

We have Verizon fios. But currently I am trying everything on the local network. C1111's WAN connected to my local network and should get IP from my current router. It looks like the problem with the C1111's firmware

When you configured manually, have you tried configuring IP manually, DHCP works with Local Router?

[pro100bear]

Good question. I belied I tried that, but I don't remember what happened. I did not like this idea because I would be able to set static IP on WAN with my ISP.

Sure most of the ISP does DHCP on PPPoE or any delivery, Make sure your Local router delivers DHCP and is Working?

Until we know this was worked and confirmed, the day zero will not going to work, since that is the basic information provided from WAN side to reach internet,

Hello

What re you trying to accomplish, please elaborate?

[pro100bear]

Hi,

I would like to use this router a regular home business router. No licenses and nothing special.

But I would like to set it up through the DayZero installer.

Thank you.

Hello,

have you tried enabling PPPoE Connection and Authentication ? Your ISP might require that...

[pro100bear]

We have Verizon fios. No PPPoE.

Thank you.

Hello,

odd. Sounds like you have tried everything. The only thing I could think of is trying to set GigabitEthernet0/0/0 up (as opposed to 0/0/1), and/or toggle the WAN Type options.

Does either port get an IP address from the ISP when you configure the ports through the CLI ?

interface GigabitEthernet0/0/1

ip address dhcp

?
