Interface Numbering

Each individual interface (port) on a Cisco 1841 router is identified by a number. A Cisco 1841 router contains the following wide-area network (WAN) and local-area network (LAN) interface types:

• Two onboard Fast Ethernet LAN interfaces

• Two slots in which you can install WICs, VWICs (data only), and HWICs.

Interface Numbering

The numbering format for the slots is interface-type 0/slot-number/interface-number. Tabl e 2-6 summarizes the interface numbering.

line async 0/1/0

1. The interfaces listed are examples only; other possible interface types are not listed.

2. VWICs are data-only in a Cisco 1841 router.

Note On the Cisco 1841 router, the numbering format for configuring an async interface is 0/slot/port. To

configure the line associated with an async interface, simply use the interface number to specify the async line. For example, line 0/0/0 specifies the line associated with interface serial 0/0/0 on a WIC-2A/S in slot 0. Similarly, line 0/1/1 specifies the line associated with interface async 0/1/1 on a WIC-2AM in slot 1.

Interface Numbering on the 1861 Integrated Services Router

Each interface (port) on a Cisco 1861 ISR is identified by a number. The Cisco 1861 router contains the following WANLAN interface types:

• One onboard Fast Ethernet LAN interface (FastEthernet0/0)

• One onboard Ethernet switch

• One fixed VIC slot with 4 FXS ports

• One fixed VIC slot with 4 FXO or 2 BRI ports

• One modular HWIC/WIC/VWIC slot

The numbering format for the slots is interface-type 0/slot-number/port-number. Tabl e 2-7 summarizes the interface numbering.

Modular HWIC Slot HWIC/WIC/VWIC 0/3/0 to 0/3/x, where x

interface serial 0/0/0 depends on the card-type.

1. The interfaces listed are examples only; other possible interface types are not listed.

Note On the Cisco 1861 ISR, the numbering format for configuring an asynchronous, or async, interface is

0/slot/port. To configure the line associated with an async interface, simply use the interface number to specify the async line. For example, line 0/0/0 specifies the line associated with interface serial 0/0/0 on a WIC-2A/S in slot 0. Similarly, line 0/1/1 specifies the line associated with interface async 0/1/1 on a WIC-2AM in slot 1.

Note If you have specified the use of a private line automatic ringdown (PLAR) off-premises extension (OPX)

connection mode for an FXO voice port (with loop resistance less than 8000 Ohm), you must ensure that the soft-offhook option is enabled on the port.

This option allows a stepped offhook resistance during seizure, which avoids overloading the circuit during offhook in the event that ringing voltage is present on the circuit at the same time as the trunk seizure. The stepped offhook resistance is initially set to 800 Ohms, then adjusts to 50 Ohms when ringing voltage is not present.

To enable the soft-offhook command on the port, and to access the connection command with plar opx syntax, see Cisco Command Lookup Tool.

Chapter 3 Preinstallation Requirements and Planning for Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular)

• Never open the enclosure of the router’s internal power supply.

• If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:

–

Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.

–

Turn off power to the device.

–

If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the victim’s condition and then call for help.

–

Determine whether the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take appropriate action.

In addition, use the following guidelines when working with any equipment that is disconnected from a power source, but is still connected to telephone wiring or other network cabling:

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for it.

• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line is disconnected at

the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

General Site Requirements

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD can occur if electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can cause complete or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replacing modules:

• Ensure that the router chassis is electrically connected to earth ground.

• Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to

an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to channel unwanted ESD voltages safely to ground. To guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively.

• If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching a metal part of the chassis.

Caution For the safety of your equipment, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. It should

be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohm).

General Site Requirements

This section describes the requirements that your site must meet for safe installation and operation of your router. Ensure that the site is properly prepared before beginning installation. If you are experiencing shutdowns or unusually high errors with your existing equipment, this section can also help you isolate the cause of failures and prevent future problems.

Power Supply Considerations

Check the power at your site to ensure that you are receiving “clean” power (free of spikes and noise). Install a power conditioner if necessary.

OL-5876-03

Installation Checklist

Chapter 3 Preinstallation Requirements and Planning for Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular)

Warning

The device is designed for connection to TN and IT power systems.

The AC power supply includes the following features:

• Autoselects either 110 V or 220 V operation.

• All units include a 6-foot (1.8-meter) electrical power cord. (A label near the power cord indicates

the correct voltage, frequency, current draw, and power dissipation for the unit.)

Site Environment

The location of your router is an extremely important consideration for proper operation. Equipment placed too close together-, or with inadequate ventilation-, or with inaccessible panels, can cause malfunctions and shutdowns, and can also make maintenance difficult. Plan for access to both front and back panels of the router.

When planning your site layout and equipment locations, remember the precautions described in the

“Site Configuration” section on page 3-4 to help avoid equipment failures and reduce the possibility of

environmentally caused shutdowns. If you are currently experiencing shutdowns or an unusually high number of errors with your existing equipment, these precautions may help you isolate the cause of the failures and prevent future problems.

Site Configuration

Statement 1007

The following precautions will help you plan an acceptable operating environment for your router and will help you avoid environmentally caused equipment failures:

• Make sure that the room where your router operates has adequate circulation. Electrical equipment

generates heat. Without adequate circulation, ambient air temperature may not cool equipment to acceptable operating temperatures.

• Always follow the ESD-prevention procedures described in the “Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

Damage” section on page 3-3 to avoid damage to equipment. Damage from static discharge can

cause immediate or intermittent equipment failure.

• Make sure that the chassis cover and module back panels are secure. All empty interface card slots

must have filler panels installed. The chassis is designed to allow cooling air to flow within it, through specially designed cooling slots. A chassis with uncovered openings creates air leaks, which may interrupt and reduce the flow of air across internal components.

Installation Checklist

The sample installation checklist lists items and procedures for installing a new router. Make a copy of this checklist, and mark each item when you complete it. Include a copy of the checklist for each router in your Site Log (described in the

“Site Log” section on page 3-5).

Cable Information and Specifications for Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular)

This chapter gives cable information and specifications for the console port, auxiliary port, and network ports on your Cisco 1800 series integrated services router (modular). It contains the following sections:

• Console and Auxiliary Port Considerations, page 5-1

• Preparing to Connect to a Network, page 5-2

For cable connection procedures, see “Cable Connection Procedures for Cisco 1800 Series Routers

(Modular)”.

Console and Auxiliary Port Considerations

The router includes an asynchronous serial console port and an auxiliary port. The console and auxiliary ports provide access to the router either locally using a console terminal connected to the console port, or remotely, using a modem connected to the auxiliary port. This section provides important cabling information to consider before connecting the router to a console terminal or modem.

The main difference between the console and auxiliary ports is that the auxiliary port supports flow control, whereas the console port does not. Flow control paces the transmission of data between a sending device and a receiving device. Flow control ensures that the receiving device can absorb the data sent to it before the sending device sends more. When the buffers on the receiving device are full, a message is sent to the sending device to suspend transmission until the data in the buffers has been processed. Because the auxiliary port supports flow control, it is ideally suited for use with the high-speed transmissions of a modem. Console terminals send data at slower speeds than modems; therefore, the console port is ideally suited for use with console terminals.

Console Port Connections

The router has an EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous serial console port (RJ-45). Depending on the cable and the adapter used, this port will appear as a data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communications equipment (DCE) device at the end of the cable.

For connection to a PC running terminal emulation software, your router is provided with an RJ-45-to-DB-9 cable.

To connect the router to an ASCII terminal, use the RJ-45-to-DB-9 cable and a DB-9-to-DB-25 adapter (provided).

OL-5876-03

Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular) Hardware Installation Guide

5-1

Preparing to Connect to a Network

The default parameters for the console port are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit. The console port does not support mode control.

For cable and port pinouts, see Cisco Modular Access Router Cable Specifications.

Auxiliary Port Connections

The router has an EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous serial auxiliary port (RJ-45) that supports flow control. Depending on the cable and the adapter used, this port will appear as a DTE or DCE device at the end of the cable.

For connection to a modem, your router is provided with an RJ-45-to-DB-9 cable and a DB-9-to-DB-25 adapter.

For detailed information about connecting devices to the auxiliary port, see the “Connecting to the

Auxiliary Port” section on page 6-4 of the “Cable Connection Procedures for Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular)” chapter.

For cable and port pinouts, see the Cisco Modular Access Router Cable Specifications document.

Chapter 5 Cable Information and Specifications for Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular)

Preparing to Connect to a Network

When setting up your router, consider distance limitations and potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) as defined by the applicable local and international regulations.

The following sections describe network connection considerations for several types of network interfaces:

• Ethernet Connections, page 5-2

• Serial Connections, page 5-3

• ISDN BRI Connections, page 5-5

• CSU/DSU Connections, page 5-5

Ethernet Connections

Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.

Statement 1030

The IEEE has established Ethernet as standard IEEE 802.3. The Cisco 1800 series Ethernet implementations are as follows:

• 100BASE-T—2-pair Category 5 or unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) straight-through RJ-45 cable.

The maximum segment distance is 328

• 10BASE-T—Ethernet on UTP cable. The maximum segment distance is 328 feet (100 meters). UTP

cables look like the wiring used for ordinary telephones; however, UTP cables meet certain electrical standards that telephone cables might not meet.

See Cisco Modular Access Router Cable Specifications for information about Ethernet cables, connectors, and pinouts.

Serial Connections

Serial connections are provided by serial WAN interface cards (WICs). For more information on WICs, see

Installing Cisco Interface Cards in Cisco Access Routers.

Before you connect a device to a serial port, you need to know the following:

• Type of device—data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communications equipment (DCE)—that

you are connecting to the synchronous serial interface

• Type of connector—male or female—that is required for connecting to the device

• Signaling standard that is required by the device

Configuring Serial Connections

The serial ports on the serial WICs use DB-60 connectors. Serial ports can be configured as DTEs or DCEs, depending on the serial cable used.

Preparing to Connect to a Network

Serial DTE or DCE Devices

A device that communicates over a synchronous serial interface is either a DTE or DCE device. A DCE device provides a clock signal that paces the communications between the device and the router. A DTE device does not provide a clock signal. DTE devices usually connect to DCE devices. The documentation for the device should indicate whether it is a DTE or DCE device. (Some devices have a jumper that allows you to select either DTE mode or DCE mode.)

Ta b l e 5-1 Typical DTE and DCE Devices

Device Type Gender Typical Devices

DTE Male

DCE Female

1. If pins protrude from the base of the connector, the connector is male.

2. If the connector has holes to accept pins, the connector is female.

Signaling Standards Supported

The synchronous serial ports available for the router support the following signaling standards: EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-449, V.35, X.21, and EIA-530. You can order a Cisco DB-60 shielded serial transition cable that has the appropriate connector for the standard you specify. The documentation for the device that you want to connect should indicate the standard used for that device. The router end of the shielded serial transition cable has a DB-60 connector, which connects to the DB-60 port on a serial WIC. The other end of the serial transition cable is available with a connector appropriate for the standard that you specify.

Table 5-1 lists typical DTE and DCE devices.

• PC

• Modem

• CSU/DSU

• Multiplexer

OL-5876-03

Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular) Hardware Installation Guide

Preparing to Connect to a Network

The synchronous serial port can be configured as DTE or DCE, depending on the attached cable (except EIA-530, which is DTE only). To order a shielded cable, contact customer service. See the

Documentation and Submitting a Service Request” section on page 1-15.

Note All serial ports configured as DTE require external clocking from a channel service unit/data service unit

(CSU/DSU) or other DCE device.

Although we do not recommend manufacturing your own serial cables (because of the small size of the pins on the DB-60 serial connector), cable pinouts are provided in

Specifications.

Distance Limitations

Serial signals can travel a limited distance at any given bit rate; generally, the slower the data rate, the greater the distance. All serial signals are subject to distance limits, beyond which a signal is significantly degraded or completely lost.

Table 5-2 lists the recommended maximum speeds and distances for each serial interface type; however,

you might get good results at speeds and distances greater than those listed, if you understand the electrical problems that might arise and can compensate for them. For instance, the recommended maximum rate for V.35 is 2

Troubleshooting Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular)

If you encounter problems with your Cisco 1800 series integrated services router (ISR) (modular), the information in this chapter can help you isolate problems in the router or eliminate the router as the source of the problem.

This chapter contains the following sections:

• Problem Solving, page 8-1

• Reading LEDs, page 8-4

• System Messages, page 8-5

• Recovering a Lost Password, page 8-6

• More Troubleshooting Help, page 8-6

Note To troubleshoot interface cards, see Overview of Cisco Interface Cards for Cisco Access Routers.

If you cannot locate the source of the problem, contact a Cisco customer service representative for information on how to proceed. For technical support information, see the

and Submitting a Service Request” section on page 1-15. Before you call, have the following

information ready:

• Chassis type and serial number

• Maintenance agreement or warranty information

• Type of software and version number

• Date you received the router

• Brief description of the problem

• Brief explanation of the steps you have taken to isolate the problem

Problem Solving

The key to problem solving is to isolate the problem to a specific subsystem by comparing what the router is doing to what it should be doing.

The LEDs on the router aid you in determining router performance and operation. The LEDs are described in the

“Obtaining Documentation

“Reading LEDs” section on page 8-4.

Chapter 8 Troubleshooting Cisco 1800 Series Routers (Modular)

Problem Solving

When solving problems, consider the following router subsystems:

• Power and cooling systems—External power source, power cable, router power supply, circuit

breaker, and router fan. Also check for inadequate ventilation or air circulation.

• Interface cards—LEDs on the interface cards help identify a failure.

• Cables—External cables that connect the router to the network.

Troubleshooting the Power and Cooling Systems

Both the system LED and the fans can help you troubleshoot a power problem. Check the following items to help isolate the problem:

Normal Indications

With the power switch on, the normal indications are:

• SYS PWR LED on green and continuous

• Fan operating

Fault Indications

Check the following symptoms to locate or eliminate faults in the power and cooling systems:

• With the power switch on, is the SYS PWR LED on?

–

If the LED is green and continuous, the router is receiving power and is functional.

–

If the LED is off, check the power source and power cable.

• With the power switch on and the SYS PWR LED on and green, does the fan operate?

–

If no, check the fan.

–

If yes, the power system is functioning.

• With the power switch on and the SYS PWR LED off, does the fan operate?

–

If yes, the router is receiving power. The fan is connected directly to the DC outputs of the power supply.

–

If no, check the power source and power cable.

• Does the router shut down after being on a short time?

–

Check for an environmentally induced shutdown. See the next section, “Environmental

Reporting Features, page 8-3.”

–

Check the environmental site requirements in the “General Site Requirements” section on

page 3-3.

–

Check for a power supply failure by inspecting the SYS PWR LED on the front panel. If it is green, the power supply is functional.

• Router partially boots, but LEDs do not go on.

–

Check for a power supply failure by inspecting the SYS PWR LED on the front panel of the router. If the SYS PWR LED is blinking or continuously green, the power supply is functional.
