2 Overview
This document describes the steps for installing your Cisco 1711 or Cisco 1712 Security Access router.
The Cisco 1711 Security Access router is a fixed configuration router that includes a 1-port analog modem card (WIC-1-AM)
that is installed in the WAN interface card (WIC) slot 1. The Cisco 1711 Security Access router alsoincludes an integrated4-port
10/100-Mbps Ethernet switch in WIC slot 0, an onboard Fast Ethernet port external interface, and a Virtual Private Network
(VPN) module in the router’s internal slot. The analog modem WIC and the switch port WIC are not field replaceable.
The Cisco 1712 Security Access router is a fixedconfigurationrouter that includes a 1-port Integrated Services Digital Network
Basic Rate Interface (ISDN-BRI) S/T interface card (WIC-1B-S/T) that is installed in the WAN interface card (WIC) slot 1. The
Cisco 1712 Security Access router also includes an integrated 4-port 10/100-Mbps Ethernet switch in WIC slot 0, an onboard
Fast Ethernet port external interface, and a virtual private network (VPN) module in the router’s internal slot. The ISDN WIC
and the switch port WIC are not field replaceable.
The Cisco 1711 and Cisco 1712 Security Access routers provide secure Internet connectivity and dial backup using the analog
modem port (on the Cisco 1711) or the ISDN port (on the Cisco 1712) in the event that your primary connection fails. The
switch ports and the onboard 10/100-Mbps Ethernet port enable you to configure a demilitarized zone (DMZ) using virtual
local area networks (VLANs) and Cisco IOS firewall features.
Additional documentation can be found on Cisco.com.
Product Serial Number Location
The serial number label for Cisco 1711 and Cisco 1712 routers is located on the rear of the chassis, to the right of the On/Off
switch.
3 Unpacking the Box
When you unpack the box containing your Cisco 1711 or Cisco 1712 Security Access router, you should find the following
items:
• One Cisco 1711 or Cisco 1712 Security Access router
• One blue RJ-45-to-DB-9 console cable
• One DB-9-to-DB-25 adapter
• One black power supply
• One black power supply cord

Items You Need to Provide
Depending on your network environment, you may need to provide some of the following items so that you can install the
router:
3
• Straight-through Ethernet cables (RJ-45-to-RJ-45) to connect the router to a broadband (xDSL or cable) modem and to a
hub or switch
• Straight-through or crossover cables to connect WICs to the appropriate WAN services (the integrated switch ports operate
in auto-detect mode)
• Ethernet hub or switch to connect the router to the local network, or an xDSL or cable modem to connect the router to the
service provider
• Server or other computer with a network interface card (NIC) or other networked device (such as a hub or a switch) to
connect to the integrated 4-port 10/100-Mbps Ethernet switch
• (Cisco 1712 only) External Network Termination (NT-1), if needed, to connect the WIC to WAN services. (Some ISDN
service providers require an external NT-1 device to connect an ISDN S/T port to the ISDN line.)
