Hello Ramu,

Can you try to figure out the use of 2922 on your own with below details:

The configuration register can be used to change Cisco router behavior in several ways, such as:

How the router boots (into ROM Monitor (ROMmon) or NetBoot).
Options while booting (ignore configuration, disable boot messages).
Console speed (baud rate for a terminal emulation session).
