2-2

Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide

Maintaining Safety with Electricity

Warning Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power

cord on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.

Warning Do not touch the power supply when the power cord is connected. For systems

with a power switch, line voltages are present within the power supply even when the power switch is OFF and the power cord is connected. For systems without a power switch, line voltages are present within the power supply when the power cord is connected.

Warning Incorrect connection of thisor connected equipment to a general purpose outlet

could result in a hazardous situation.

Warning This equipment is to be installed and maintained by service personnel only as

deﬁned by AS/NZS 3260 Clause 1.2.14.3 Service Personnel.

Warning Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power

source.

• Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist ﬂoors, ungrounded

power extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds.

• Locate the emergency power off switch for the room in which you are working. Then,

if an electrical accident occurs, you can act quickly to turn OFF the power.

• Power OFF the router and unplug the power cord before doing the following:

— Installing or removing a chassis — Working near power supplies

• Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.

• Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit. Always check.

Preparing to Install the Router 2-3

General Site Requirements

If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:

• Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.

• Turn OFF power to the system.

• If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the condition of

the victim and then call for help.

• Determine if the victim needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then

take appropriate action.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic components are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures.

Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing and replacing components. Ensure that the 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 safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to ground. To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must be used effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.

Caution For safety,periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which

should be between 1 to 10 megohms (Mohm).

General Site Requirements

This section describes the requirements your site must meet for safe installation and operation of your system. Ensure that your site is properly prepared before beginning installation.

2-4

Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide

Site Environment

The router can be placed on a desktop or mounted in a rack or on a wall. The location of the chassis and the layout of your equipment rack or wiring room are extremely important for proper system operation. Placing equipment too close together, inadequate ventilation, and inaccessible panels can make system maintenance difﬁcult or cause system malfunctions and shutdowns.

When planning your site layout and equipment locations, remember the precautions described in the next section, “Preventive Site Conﬁguration.” If you are experiencing shutdowns or unusually high errors with your existing equipment, these precautions might help you isolate the cause of failures and prevent future problems.

Preventive Site Conﬁguration

The followingprecautions will help you plan an acceptable operating environmentfor your router and help you avoid environmentally-caused equipment failures:

• Ensure that the room in which you operate your system has adequate air circulation.

Electrical equipment generates heat. Ambient air temperature might not be able to cool equipment to acceptable operating temperatures without adequate circulation.

Site Environment

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

Electrostatic Discharge Damage” section on page 2-4 to avoid damage to equipment. Damage from static discharge can cause immediate or intermittent equipment failure.

• Ensure that the chassis cover is secure. The chassis is designed to allow cooling air to

ﬂow effectively inside it. An open chassis allows air leaks, which might interrupt and redirect the ﬂow of cooling air from internal components.

Conﬁguring Equipment Racks

The following information will help you plan an acceptable equipment rack conﬁguration:\

• Enclosed racks must have adequate ventilation. Ensure that the rack is not overly

congested because each unit generates heat. An enclosed rack should have louvered sides and a fan to provide cooling air.

Preparing to Install the Router 2-5

General Site Requirements

• When mounting a chassis in an open rack, ensure that the rack frame does not block the

intake or the exhaust ports. If the chassis is installed on slides, check the position of the chassis when it is seated all the way into the rack.

• In an enclosed rack with a ventilation fan in the top, excessive heat generated by

equipment near the bottom of the rack can be drawn upward and into the intake ports of the equipment above it in the rack. Ensure that you provide adequate ventilation for equipment at the bottom of the rack.

• Bafﬂes can help to isolate exhaust air from intake air, which also helps to draw cooling

air throughthechassis.The best placement of the bafﬂes depends on the airﬂow patterns in the rack, which can be found by experimenting with different arrangements.

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.

Warning The device is designed to work with TN power systems.

2-6

Warning The telecommunications lines must be disconnected 1) before unplugging the

main power connector and /or 2) while the housing is open.

The router power supply includes the following features:

• Autoselects either 110V or 220V operation.

• Allunits include a 6-foot (1.8-meter) electrical power cord. (A label near the powercord

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

Warning This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent)

protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).

Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide

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.

Networkconnection considerations are provided forseveral types ofnetwork interfaces and are discussed in the following sections:

• Ethernet Connections on page 2-7

• Token Ring Connections on page 2-12

• Serial Connections on page 2-14

• ISDN BRI Connections on page 2-22

• 56K/Switched-56-kbps DSU/CSU Connections on page 2-23

Warning The Ethernet 10BaseT,TokenRing, console, and auxiliary ports contain safety

extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. Avoid connecting SELV circuits to TNV circuits.

Ethernet Connections

The IEEE has established Ethernet as standard IEEE 802.3. The most common Ethernet implementations are as follows:

Preparing to Connect to a Network

• 100BaseT—2-pair Category 5 or unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) straight-through RJ-45

cable.

• 10Base2—Ethernet on thin coaxial cable, also known as thin Ethernet. The maximum

segment distance is 607 feet (186 meters).

• 10Base5—Ethernetonthick coaxial cable, also known as thick Ethernet. The maximum

segment distance is 1,640 feet (500 meters).

• 10BaseT—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 do not meet.

The Ethernet interfaces available for the Cisco 2610, Cisco 2611, and Cisco 2612 routers operate at speeds up to 10 Mbps. The Ethernet interfaces available for the Cisco 2620 and Cisco 2621 routers operate at speeds up to 100 Mbps.

The IEEE has established Token Ring as standard IEEE 802.5. Speciﬁcations indicate a maximum segment distance of 328 feet (100 meters) for UTP cabling.

Note To ensure agency compliance with FCC Class B electromagnetic emissions

requirements (EMI), make sure that you use the shielded RJ-45 Token Ring cable when connecting your router to your Token Ring network.

Token Ring can operate at two different ring speeds: 4 and 16 Mbps. All devices on the Token Ring must use the same operating speed.

Use the provided Token Ring cable to connect the router to a switch. Refer to the section “Token Ring Port Pinouts” in the online document Cisco Modular Access Router Cabling Speciﬁcations for the Token Ring port pinouts. This document is on the Documentation CD-ROM that accompanied your router package, and on Cisco Connection Online.

Preparing to Install the Router 2-13

Preparing to Connect to a Network

Serial Connections

Serial connections are provided by WANinterface cards and network modules. The WAN interface cards can be installed in either slot of the 2-slot chassis; the network module can be installed in the Cisco 2600 series single network module slot. For more information on WAN interface cards, see the publication Cisco WAN Interface Cards Hardware

Installation Guide. Formore information on network modules, see the publication Network ModulesHardwareInstallation Guide. Both of these publications accompanied your router

package. 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), you are connecting to the synchronous serial interface

• Type of connector, male or female, required to connect to the device

• Signaling standard required by the device

Conﬁguring Serial Connections

The serial ports on the asynchronous/synchronous serial network modules and the serial WAN interface card use DB-60 connectors. (See Figure 2-8 through Figure 2-12, and Figure 2-13.) Serial ports can be conﬁgured as DTE or DCE, depending on the serial cable used.

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 that accompanied the device should indicate whether it is a DTE or DCE device. (Some devices have a jumper to select either DTE or DCE mode.) If you cannot determine the device type in the documentation, see Table 2-1 to help you select the proper device type.

2-14

Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide

Table 2-1 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 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 WAN interface card. The other end of the serial transition cable is available with a connector appropriate for the standard you specify.

Serial Connections

Terminal PC

Modem CSU/DSU Multiplexer

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.

Note All serial ports conﬁgured as DTE require external clocking from a CSU/DSU or

other DCE device.

Preparing to Install the Router 2-15

Preparing to Connect to a Network

Although manufacturing your own serial cables is not recommended (because of the small size of the pins on the DB-60 serial connector), cable pinouts are provided in the online document Cisco Modular Access Router Cabling Speciﬁcations on the Documentation CD-ROM that accompanied your router, and on Cisco Connection Online.

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 signiﬁcantly degrades or is completely lost.

Note Only the serial WAN interface card supports bit rates above 128 kbps.

Table 2-2 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 Mbps, but 4 Mbps is commonly used.

2-16

Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide

EIA/TIA-449, X.21, V.35, EIA-530 Distance

Balanced drivers allow EIA/TIA-449 signals to travel greater distances than EIA/TIA-232 signals. The recommended distance limits for EIA/TIA-449 shown in Table 2-2 are also valid for V.35, X.21, and EIA-530. Typically, EIA/TIA-449 and EIA-530 can support 2-Mbps rates, and V.35 can support 4-Mbps rates.

Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Module Baud Rates

The following baud-rate limitations apply to the slow-speed serial interfaces found in the asynchronous/synchronous serial modules:

• Asynchronous interface—Maximum baud rate is 115.2 kbps.

• Synchronous interface—Maximum baud rate is 128-kbps full duplex.

EIA/TIA-232 Connections

EIA/TIA-232 supports unbalanced circuits at signal speeds up to 64 kbps. The networkend of the adapter cable is a standard 25-pin D-shell connector known as a DB-25. (See Figure 2-8.) The router console and auxiliary ports also use EIA/TIA-232 connections; however, the serial module ports support synchronous connections, and the console and auxiliary ports support asynchronous connections.

Serial Connections

Figure 2-8 EIA/TIA-232 Adapter Cable Connectors, Network End

EIA/TIA-449 Connections

EIA/TIA-449, which supports balanced (EIA/TIA-422) and unbalanced (EIA/TIA-423) transmissions, is a faster version of EIA/TIA-232 (up to 2 Mbps) that provides more functions and supports transmissions over greater distances.

DCE

H1343a

Preparing to Install the Router 2-17

Preparing to Connect to a Network

The EIA/TIA-449 standard was intended to replace the EIA/TIA-232 standard, but it was not widely adopted primarily because of the large installed base of DB-25 hardware and because of the larger size 37-pin EIA/TIA-449 connectors, which limited the number of connections possible (fewer than with the smaller, 25-pin EIA/TIA-232 connector).

The network end of the EIA/TIA-449 adapter cable provides a standard 37-pin D-shell connector.(See Figure 2-9.) EIA/TIA-449 cables are available as either DTE (DB-37 plug) or DCE (DB-37 receptacle).

Figure 2-9 EIA/TIA-449 Adapter Cable Connectors, Network End

DTE

V.35 Connections

The V.35 interface is recommended for speeds up to 48 kbps, although it is often used successfully at 4 Mbps.

The network end of the V.35 adapter cable provides a standard 34-pin Winchester-type connector. (See Figure 2-10.) V.35 cables are available with a standard V.35 plug or receptacle in either DTE or DCE mode.

X.21 Connections

The X.21 interface uses a 15-pin connection for balanced circuits and is commonly used in the United Kingdom to connect public data networks. X.21 relocates some of the logic functions to the DTE and DCE interfaces and, as a result, requires fewer circuits and a smaller connector than EIA/TIA-232.

The network end of the X.21 adapter cable is a standard DB-15 connector. (See Figure 2-11.) X.21 cables are available as either DTE (DB-15 plug) or DCE (DB-15 receptacle).

EIA-530 Connections

EIA-530, which supports balanced transmission, provides the increased functionality, speed, and distance of EIA/TIA-449 on the smaller DB-25 connector used for EIA/TIA-232, instead of the 37-pin connectors used for EIA/TIA-449. Like EIA/TIA-449, EIA-530refers to the electrical speciﬁcations of EIA/TIA-422 andEIA/TIA-423. Although the speciﬁcation recommends a maximum speed of 2 Mbps, EIA-530 is used successfully at 4 Mbps or faster over short distances.

The EIA-530 adapter cable is available in DTE mode only. The network end of the EIA-530 adapter cable is a standard DB-25 plug commonly used for EIA/TIA-232 connections. Figure 2-12 shows the DB-25 connector at the network end of the adapter cable.

ISDN BRI Connections

The BRI WAN interface cards provide Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Basic Rate Interface (BRI) connections. The BRI modules and BRI WAN interface cards are availablewith either anS/T interface that requires an externalNetwork Terminator1 (NT1), or a U interface that has a built-in NT1.

You can install the BRI modules into any available slot in the chassis.

Warning Network hazardous voltages are present in the BRI cable. If you detach the

BRI cable, detach the end away from the router ﬁrst to avoid possible electric shock. Networkhazardous voltages also are present on the system card in the area of the BRI port (RJ-45 connector), regardless of when power is turned OFF.

Warning The ISDN connection is regarded as a source of voltage that should be

inaccessible to user contact. Do not attempt to tamper with or open any public telephone operator (PTO)-provided equipment or connection hardware. Any hardwired connection (other than by a nonremovable, connect-one-time-only plug) must be made only by PTO staff or suitably trained engineers.

2-22

Use a BRI cable (not included) to connect the BRI WANinterface card directly to an ISDN. Table 2-3 lists the speciﬁcations for ISDN BRI cables. Also, refer to the online document Cisco Modular Access Router Cabling Speciﬁcations for pinouts.

Wiring the DC Power Supply

If you ordered a router with a DC power supply,follow the directions in this section to wire the terminal block.

Warning Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is

removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is OFF, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position.

Warning The illustration shows the DC power supply terminal block. The proper wiring

sequence is ground to ground, positive to positive (line to L), and negative to negative (neutral to N). Note that the ground wire should always be connected ﬁrst and disconnected last.

Warning When stranded wiring is required, use approved wiring terminations, such as

closed-loop or spade-type with upturned lugs. These terminations should be the appropriate size for the wires and should clamp both the insulation and conductor.

Wiring the DC Power Supply

Caution Do not overtorque the terminal block captive thumbscrew or terminal block

contact screws. The recommended torque is 8.2 ± 0.4 inch-lb.

Warning After wiring the DC power supply, remove the tape from the circuit breaker

switch handle and reinstate power by moving the handle of the circuit breaker to the ON position.

Warning Secure all power cabling when installing this unit to avoid disturbing

ﬁeld-wiring connections.

Installing the Router 3-17

Connecting the Console Terminal and Modem

Your router includes asynchronous serial console and auxiliary ports. These ports provide administrative access to your router either locally (with a console terminal) or remotely (with a modem).

Identifying a Rollover Cable

Use a rollover cable to connect to the asynchronous serial console and auxiliary ports. You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the two modular ends of the cable. Holding the cables side-by-side, with the tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should be the same color as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug. (See Figure 3-14.) If your cable came from Cisco Systems, pin 1 will be white on one connector, and pin 8 will be white on the other (a rollover cable reverses pins 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5).

Connecting to the Console Port

Take the following steps to connect a terminal (an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software) to the console port on the router:

Step 1 Connect the terminal using the thin, ﬂat, RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable (looks

like a telephone cable) and an RJ-45-to-DB-9 or RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter (labeled TERMINAL) included with the router. (See Figure 3-15.)

Step 2 Conﬁgure your terminal or PC terminal emulation software for 9600 baud,

8 data bits, no parity, and 2 stop bits.

For information on console port pinouts, see the online document Cisco Modular Access Router Cabling Speciﬁcations on the Documentation CD-ROM that accompanied your router package, and on Cisco Connection Online.

APPENDIX

Maintaining the Router

This appendix contains selected maintenance procedures you might need to perform on a Cisco 2600 series router as your internetworking needs change.

This appendix includes the following sections:

• Upgrading DRAM on page B-2

• Opening the Chassis on page B-3

• Replacing the System-Code SIMM on page B-8

• Closing the Chassis on page B-11

Additional maintenance procedures are available on the Documentation CD-ROM that shipped with the router.

To see translated versionsof warnings in this appendix, see the RegulatoryCompliance and Safety Information document that accompanied your router.

Caution Before opening the chassis, be sure that you have discharged all static

electricity from your body and the power is OFF. Before performing any procedures described in this appendix, review the “Safety Recommendations” section on page 2-1.

Warning Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power

cord on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.

Maintaining the Router B-1

Upgrading DRAM

This section describes how to upgrade dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) on the system card. You might need to upgrade DRAM for the following reasons:

• You have upgraded to a new Cisco IOS software feature set or release.

• You are using very large routing tables or many protocols (for example, when the router

is set up as part of both a large external network and your internal network).

To see how much memory is currently installed in the router, enter the show version command. Near the middle of the resulting output, a message similar to the following appears:

Cisco 2610(MPC860) processor (revision 0x200) with 28672K/4096K bytes of memory.

This line shows how much memory is installed (in this example, 28672K/4096K). The ﬁrst number represents primary memory and the second number represents shared memory.

Cisco 2600 DRAM

Cisco 2600 series routers contain two 100-pin dual in-line memory module (DIMM) sockets (or banks) for DRAM, numbered 0 and 1. (See Figure B-3.) Each socket can be ﬁlled with a 100-pin DRAM DIMM. You can use the memory-size iomem software command to conﬁgure DRAM as a mixture of shared memory, which is used for data transmitted or receivedby network modules and WAN interface cards, and primary or main memory,which is reserved for the CPU. For further information about this command, see the Cisco IOS conﬁguration guides and command references.

Troubleshooting the Router

This appendix contains information about isolating problems with the router and includes the following sections:

• Isolating Problems on page A-1

• Reading the LEDs on page A-3

For information about obtaining technical support, see the “Obtaining Service and Support” on page ix .

Isolating Problems

The key to problem solving in this system is to try to isolate the problem to a speciﬁc subsystem. By comparing what the system is doing to what it should be doing, the task of isolating and solving the problem is greatly simpliﬁed.

APPENDIX

When problem solving, consider the following subsystems:

• Power and cooling systems—Power supply, power cable, and fan

• Ports, cables, and connections—Ports on the rear panel of the router and the cables that

connect to them

Troubleshooting the Router A-1

Isolating Problems

Troubleshooting the Power and Cooling Systems

Check the following items to help isolate the problem:

• When the power switch is in the ON position (|) and the power LED is on, make sure

the fan is operating. If not, check the fan.

• If the router shuts down after being on a short time, check the environmental conditions.

The router might be overheating, resulting in a thermal-induced shutdown. Ensure that the chassis intake and exhaust vents are clear.Review the “General Site Requirements” section on page 2-4. The operating temperature for the router is 32 to 104° F(0to40°C).

• If the router fails to boot, but the power LED is on, check the power supply.

• If the router constantly or intermittently reboots, there might be a problem with either

the processor or the software,or a DRAM single in-line memory module (SIMM) might be installed incorrectly.

Troubleshooting the Ports, Cables, and Connections

Check the following items to help isolate the problem:

• If the router fails to recognize a port, check the cable connection.

A-2

• When the power switch is in the ON position (|), make sure the power LED is on. If not,

check the power source and power cable.

• If thesystemboots, but the console screen is frozen, verify that the console is conﬁgured

for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 2 stop bits.

APPENDIX

Using the ROM Monitor

Thisappendix describes using the ROM monitor (also called the bootstrap program), which is the ﬁrmware that runs when you power on or restart a Cisco 2600 series router. During normal operation, the ROMmonitor helps to initialize the processor hardware and boot the operating system software. You can also use the ROM monitor to:

• Help you isolate or rule out hardware problems encountered when installing your router.

• Recover your router’s Cisco IOS image if the image becomes corrupted.

This appendix contains the following sections:

• Entering the ROM Monitor Mode on page C-1

• ROM Monitor Commands on page C-3

• ROM Monitor Syntax Conventions on page C-4

• Command Descriptions on page C-4

• Procedures for Recovering Boot and System Images on page C-9

Entering the ROM Monitor Mode

To use the ROM monitor, you must have access to the console port. See the Cisco 2600 Series Cabling and Setup quick start guide for information on connecting the console cable.

Using the ROM Monitor C-1

Entering the ROM Monitor Mode

To enter the ROM monitor mode, do the following:

Table C-1 Entering ROM Monitor Mode Step Command or Action Purpose

1 2600> reload 2

Press the while the system is starting up

Break key during the first 60 seconds

Restart the router. Forces the router to stop booting and

enter the ROM monitor mode.

Verifying that You Are in ROM Monitor Mode

To verify that you are in the ROM monitor mode, check that the prompt displayed on your screen is the ROM monitor mode prompt:

rommon # >

The # is the line number and increases incrementally at each prompt.

Tips

From the Cisco IOS software, you can conﬁgure the router to automatically enter the ROM monitor mode the next time the router boots by setting virtual conﬁguration register bits 3, 2, 1, and 0 to zero. From the console, enter the following conﬁguration command:

configuration-register 0x0

The new conﬁguration register value, 0x0, is effective after the router is rebooted with the reload command. The router remains in the ROM monitor and does not boot the operating system.

As long as the conﬁguration register value remains 0x0, you must manually boot the operating system from the console. Refer to the boot command in the “Command Descriptions” section on page C-4.

C-2

Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide

ROM Monitor Commands

Enter ? or help at the ROM monitor mode prompt to display a list of available commands. For example:

rommon 1 > ? alias set and display aliases command boot boot up an external process break set/show/clear the breakpoint confreg configuration register utility cont continue executing a downloaded image context display the context of a loaded image cookie display contents of cookie PROM in hex dev list the device table dir list files in the file system dis display instruction stream dnld serial download a program module frame print out a selected stack frame help monitor builtin command help history monitor command history meminfo main memory information repeat repeat a monitor command reset system reset set display the monitor variables stack produce a stack trace sync write monitor environment to NVRAM sysret print out info from last system return tftpdnld tftp image download unalias unset an alias unset unset a monitor variable xmodem x/ymodem image download rommon 2 >

ROM Monitor Commands

Note You can abort any command by pressing the Break key at the console.

Using the ROM Monitor C-3

ROM Monitor Syntax Conventions

The ROM monitor syntax in this appendix uses the following conventions:

• Square brackets [ ] denote an optional element. In the following example, the element

abc is not required, but you can specify it if you choose: command [abc]

• If a minus option is followed by a colon (for example, [-s:]) you must provide an

argument for the option.

• Aterm in italics means that you must ﬁll in the appropriate information. In the following

example, you replace the term in italics with the interface type you are using:

command type interface

Command Descriptions

This section lists some useful ROM monitor commands. Refer to the Cisco IOS conﬁguration guides and command references for more information on ROM monitor commands.

• boot or b—Boot an image.

C-4

—bboots the ﬁrst image in Flash memory. —bﬂash:[name] boots the Cisco IOS software from the Flash memory. —bﬁlename tftpserver boots from the specified file over the network from the

speciﬁed Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server. For example:

boot c2600-i-mz 172.15.19.11

Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide

Command Descriptions

—bﬁlename boots from the boothelper image because it does not recognize the

device ID. This form of the command is used to netboot the image named ﬁlename. Cisco 2600 series routers do not have a dedicated boothelper image ([rx]boot) as

used by some other Cisco routers. WithCisco 2600 series routers, the ﬁrst image in Flash memory is invoked as the default boothelper image anytime the ROM monitor does not recognize the device ID in the boot command.

You can override the default boothelper image setting by setting the BOOTLDR monitor environment variable to point to another image. Any system image can be used for this purpose.

Options to the boot command are -x, load image but do not execute, and -v, verbose. Use the Cisco IOS commands show version and show hardware to display the source

of the currently running image.

• dir device:[partition:]—List the ﬁles on the named device. For example:

rommon 8 > dir flash:

File size Checksum File name

Debugging Commands

Most debugging commands are functional only when Cisco IOS software has crashed or is aborted. If you enter a debugging command and Cisco IOS crash information is not available, the following error message appears:

“xxx: kernel context state is invalid, can not proceed.”

• stack or k—Produce a stack trace.

• context—Display processor context.

• frame—Display an individual stack frame.

• sysret—Display return information from the last booted system image. This

information includes the reason for terminating the image, a stack dump of up to eight frames, and, if an exception is involved, the address where the exception occurred. For example:

rommon 8 > sysret System Return Info: count: 19, reason: a SegV exception pc:0x802b1040, error address: 0x802b1040 Stack Trace: FP: 0x80908398, PC: 0x802b102c FP: 0x809083b0, PC: 0x802b0b88 FP: 0x809083d8, PC: 0x8017039c FP: 0x809083e8, PC: 0x8016f764

Conﬁguration Register Commands

Thevirtualconﬁguration register resides in NVRAM. Youcan displayormodify the virtual conﬁguration register from either the ROM monitor or the operating system software.

To change the virtual conﬁguration register from the ROM monitor, enter confreg by itself for menu mode, or enter the new value of the register in hexadecimal.

• confreg[hexnum]—Change the virtual conﬁguration register to thevalue speciﬁed. The

value is always interpreted as hexadecimal. Entering confreg without an argument displays the contents of the virtual conﬁguration register and prompts you to alter the contents by describing the meaning of each bit.

Using the ROM Monitor C-7

Command Descriptions

In either case, the new virtual conﬁguration register value is written into NVRAM, but is not effective until you reset or power-cycle the router.

The following display shows an example of the confreg command:

rommon 7 > confreg

Procedures for Recovering Boot and System Images

If your Cisco 2600 series router experiences difﬁculties and no longer contains a valid Cisco IOS software image in Flash memory, you can recover the Cisco IOS image using one of the following ROM monitor commands:

• xmodem—Use this if the computer attached to your console has a terminal emulator

that has Xmodem capability.

• tftpdnld—Use this if you have a TFTP server directly connected to the Ethernet 0 port

or Token Ring 0 port.

Using the xmodem Command

The xmodem command establishes a connection between a console and the router console portfor disaster recovery if both the boot andsystem images are erased from Flash memory.

xmodem [ﬁlename]—Establishes an Xmodem connection between the console and the router. The optional parameter ﬁlename speciﬁes the source ﬁle containing the Cisco IOS image.

Other options include the following:

• c—Use cyclic redundancy check (CRC-16)

• y—Use Ymodem transfer protocol

• r—Copy the image to dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) for launch

• x—Do not launch image on completion of download

Using the ROM Monitor C-9

Procedures for Recovering Boot and System Images

Using the tftpdnld Command

The tftpdnld command downloads a Cisco IOS software image from a remote server accessible from an Ethernet or TokenRing network interface on a Cisco 2600 series router. The tftpdnldcommand downloadsthe Cisco IOS software image into Flash memory using TFTP.

The following software restrictions apply when using the tftpdnld command:

• Ethernet platform—Only accepts and sends Ethernet V2.0 data packets.

• Token Ring platform—Only accepts and sends Token Ring frames with IEEE802.3

SNAP frames. Does not support any frames with routing information ﬁelds (RIFs), limiting all use of the tftpdnld command to a TFTP serveron the local ring. If the TFTP server resides off the local ring, you must establish a path to the server through a router or transparent bridge from the local ring.

tftpdnld [-h] [-r]—Begins the TFTP copy procedure. Options include the following:

• h—Displays the tftpdnld command help screen.

• r—Loadsthe Cisco IOS software image only to DRAM and launches theimage without

writing the image into Flash memory.

C-10

The tftpdnld command requires that you specify certain variables when you issue the command. The syntax for specifying the variables is:

VARIABLE_NAME=value

The variables that you must specify include the following:

• IP_ADDRESS—IP address for the router you are using.

• IP_SUBNET_MASK—Subnet mask for the router you are using.

• DEFAULT_GATEWAY—Default gateway for the router you are using.

• TFTP_SERVER—IP address of the server from which you want to downloadthe image

ﬁle.

• TFTP_FILE—Name of the ﬁle that you want to download.

Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide

Using the tftpdnld Command

The following tftpdnld command variables are optional:

• TFTP_VERBOSE—Print setting. The default is 1.

— 0=quiet—After you enter the tftpdnld command, the prompt

Do you wish to continue? y/n:

is the only information that displays until the command completes successfully or fails.

— 1=progress—Displays the state of the required tftpdnld command variables. Also

displays progress characters to indicate successful and lost packet transmissions.

— 2=verbose—Displays all progress print setting messages, along with error

information. The information provided by this print setting may be useful when debugging interface link and conﬁguration problems that may prevent connecting to the TFTP server.

• TFTP_RETRY_COUNT—Number of times from 1 to 65535 that the ROM monitor

will retry ARP and ACK. The default is 7.

• TFTP_TIMEOUT—Overall timeout of the download operation in seconds. The range

is from 1 to 65535 seconds. The default is 7200 seconds.

• TFTP_CHECKSUM—Performs a checksum test on the image. 0=checksum off,

1=checksum on. The default is 1.

• FE_SPEED_MODE—Sets the Fast Ethernet speed and duplex mode. 0=10 Mbps

half-duplex mode, 1=10 Mbps full-duplex mode, 2=100 Mbps half-duplex mode, 3=100 Mbps full-duplex mode, 4=auto-negotiation. The default is 4.

Note Specify the FE_SPEED_MODE variable only for routers with a Fast Ethernet

network interface.

Using the ROM Monitor C-11

Procedures for Recovering Boot and System Images

• TR_SPEED_MODE—Sets the Token Ring speed and duplex mode. 0=4 Mbps

half-duplex mode, 1=4 Mbps full-duplex mode, 2=16 Mbps half-duplex mode, 3=16 Mbps full-duplex mode. The default is 2.

Note Specify the TR_SPEED_MODE variable only for routers with a Token Ring

network interface; or for routers with both an Ethernet and a Token Ring port, those routers that are set to use the Token Ring port with the tftpdnld command.

• TR_1E1R_PORT—Sets the port to be used with the tftpdnld command. 0=Use

Ethernet port, 1=Use Token Ring port. The default is 0.

Note Specify the TR_1E1R_PORT variable only for those routers with both an

Ethernet and a Token Ring port.

After you specify the variables, you must reenter the tftpdnld command. For example:

rommon 1 > IP_ADDRESS=172.15.19.11 rommon 2 > IP_SUBNET_MASK=255.255.255.0 rommon 3 > DEFAULT_GATEWAY=172.16.19.1 rommon 4 > TFTP_SERVER=172.15.20.10 rommon 5 > TFTP_FILE=/tftpboot/c2600-i-mz rommon 6 > tftpdnld

C-12

IP_ADDRESS=172.15.19.11 IP_SUBNET_MASK=255.255.255.0 DEFAULT_GATEWAY=172.16.19.1 TFTP_SERVER=172.15.20.10 TFTP_FILE=/tftpboot/2600-i-mz

Invoke this command for disaster recovery only. WARNING: all existing data in all partitions on flash will be lost! Do you wish to continue? y/n: [n]:

Entery to begin downloadingthe Cisco IOS software image. When the process is complete, the ROM monitor mode prompt appears on your screen.
