HELL BID SC
The first time that you boot up a Cisco router without a startup-configuration (for example, after a “write erase” and a “reload”), there are a list of commands that should be executed for a basic configuration of the router.
Remembering this list of commands is made easier by the acronym “HELL BID SC”:
- hostname
- enable secret
- line con 0
- line vty 0 4
- banner motd
- interfaces and descriptions
- show running-config
- copy run start

Pretty cool! I can use that to polish my configuring skills. As someone who does not configure routers (or switches) on a regular basis, I sometimes find myself staring at the prompt when I start a device, trying to figure out what to configure first. But once I get started and warmed up, I seem to get in a roll quite immediately. Having this in mind will get me configuring right away.
