CISCO 1811 Initial Config

[echang15]

greetings,

Cisco IOS noob here (though I have some xp with a PIX501)
the 1811 is a 2 WAN router with built in 8 port switch (but a show ver simply shows it as a 10 fastethernet). I currently have a T1 ethernet coming from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx hooked up to FE0, and a DSL from yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy to FE1. (failover only, which is a different question altogether) The question is, how do I get past this step, and get this to work?

Current Config (at least the highlights)

interface FastEthernet0
ip address my.dsl.ip.addy 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
ip virtual-reassembly
no ip route-cache
shutdown
duplex auto
speed auto

interface FastEthernet1
ip address my.t1.ip.addy 255.255.255.224
no ip route-cache
speed auto
half-duplex



I havent connected any machines to the router yet, and im using the console cable to IOS, although SDM is looking better and better by the moment..

Since my PIX501 had dns/dhcp servers integrated, will I have to move DNS/DHCP to a dedicated server?

Thanks a bunch!

Addendum:

I turned on the switches (FE 2-9) and defaulted them to VLAN1, and set VLAN1's static IP of 192.168.0.1. Is this the right thing to do to setup our internal network?

thanks.
