Chapter 1 Overview of the Cisco 4451-X Integrated Services Router

Front Panel Ethernet Ports

There are 4 front panel Ethernet ports. Each port independently supports dual-media types, RJ45 copper or SFPs.

Dual Mode GE/SFP Ports

There are Dual Mode ports available on the Cisco ISR 4451-X that can function as GE or SFP ports.

GE Ports

The GE RJ-45 copper interface ports support 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T.

SFP Ports

The small-form-factor pluggable (SFP) ports support, but are not restricted to 1000BASE-LX/LH, 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-ZX, and Coarse Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (CWDM-8) modules, as well as 100Mbs SFP modules.

The SFP port shares the same physical port as an RJ-45 GE port with the same number. It can only be used for one or the other function at one time. The SFP port supports auto-media-detection, auto-failover and remote fault indication (RFI), as described in the IEEE 802.3ah specification.

Hardware Features

Use the media-type {rj45{auto-failover}} | {sfp{auto-failover}} command to enable the auto-media-detection and auto-failover features. Use the Command Lookup Tool for details about this command.

The SFP port can be configured for the following behaviors:

• Always use the RJ-45 port.

• Always use the SFP port.

• Always use the RJ-45 port but fail over to the SFP port if the RJ-45 port fails. This is the default

configuration.

• Always use the SFP port but fail over to the RJ-45 port if the SFP port fails.

USB Serial Console Port

The Mini-USB type B serial port can be used as an alternative to the RJ45 console port. For Windows operating systems older than Windows 7, you must install a Windows USB device driver before using the USB console port.

Front Panel PoE+ Ports

Two of the four front panel ethernet ports are PoE+ (802.3at) compliant ports. These are ports GE 0/0/0 and GE 0/0/1.

System PoE power supplies do not provide power to the front panel ports.

OL-27644-01

Note The PoE card is always required to provide PoE power to these ports, regardless of what other power

supplies are present in the system. An internal PoE module needs to be ordered separately for this functionality.

Hardware Installation Guide for the Cisco 4451-X Integrated Services Router

Chapter 1 Overview of the Cisco 4451-X Integrated Services Router

Packet Voice Digital Signal Processor Modules

The Packet Voice Digital Signal Processor Modules (PVDM4s) add additional voice capabilities to the Cisco ISR 4451-Xs. The PVDM4 is installed inside the chassis of the router. See the “Installing the

PVDM4 on the Motherboard of the Cisco ISR 4451-X” section on page 6-27 for installation instructions.

Memory

Cisco ISR 4451-X routers contain the following types of memory:

• Control and data plane DIMMs—Stores the running configuration and routing tables and is used for

packet buffering by the network interfaces. Cisco IOS XE software executes from memory. Supported module types are Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs).

Note The DIMMs are interchangeable although the same sizes are not supported in all locations. The

single data plane DIMM must have a 2GB DIMM which is exactly like one of the two DIMMs used for the control plane with 4GB default memory. The control plane uses two DIMMs and they must be exactly the same type and density.

Hardware Features

• Boot/NVRAM—Stores the bootstrap program (ROM monitor), the configuration register, and the

startup configuration.

• Flash memory—Internal bootflash memory. Stores the operating system software image. Each

model supports 1 internal Compact Flash 8GB, 15GB or 32 GB memory card. The compact flash is located behind the fan tray on the router chassis.

Note You must use Cisco-qualified CompactFlash cards. Use of any other cards during normal

network operation can affect system performance.

Power Supplies

Cisco ISR 4451-Xs support a variety of power supply configurations. All power supplies are field-replaceable and externally accessible.

If configured with dual power supplies or a PoE adaptor, the power supplies are hot-swappable. There is an option for a second power supply unit.

Configurations include AC, internal PoE, and PoE boost. Tab le 1- 3 summarizes the power options.

Fans, Ventilation, and Airflow

Chassis Ventilation

An internal fan tray consisting of 4 fans provides chassis cooling. An onboard temperature sensor controls the fan speed. The fans are always on when the router is powered on. Under most conditions, the fans operate at the slowest speed to conserve power and reduce fan noise. The fans operate at the higher speeds when necessary under conditions of higher ambient temperature. To replace a fan tray, see the “Replacing a Fan Tray” section on page 6-34.

Chapter 1 Overview of the Cisco 4451-X Integrated Services Router

• In most cases, the router designates its interfaces using a 3-tuple notation that lists the slot, bay, and

port. The 3-tuple value is zero based. An example of a 3-tuple is 0/1/2. This refers to slot 0, the second bay in slot 0 (the first bay is 0 so the second bay is 1), and the third port in bay 1. See

Table 1 - 4 for more examples.

Table 1-4 Slot, Subslot (Bay) and Port Numbering

3-Tuple Example Slot Bay Port

0/1/2 0 2nd 3rd

0/0/1 0 1st 2nd

1/1/1 1 2nd 2nd

• Slots and bays are numbered from the left to the right, and from the top to the bottom.

• NIMs are designated by the number of the first slot that they occupy. A NIM occupies two slots, but

its designation is only the left-most slot number (double-wide cards only).

• The auxiliary (AUX) serial port and console (CON) serial port do not have slot, bay, or port

numbers.

About Slots and Interfaces

• The GE management port is named GE 0. It does not have a slot, bay, or port number.

• The two USB ports are named USB0 and USB1. They do not have slot, bay or port numbers

Note USB0 and USB1 can be used to insert flash drives..

About Slot 0

The following are the main features of Slot 0:

• Slot 0 is the motherboard and not removable. It is reserved for integrated ports and NIMs.

• The front panel GE ports (or native interface ports) always reside in slot 0 and bay 0. There are four

ports, and they are called Gigabitethernet 0/0/0, Gigabitethernet 0/0/1, Gigabitethernet 0/0/2, and Gigabitethernet 0/0/3.

OL-27644-01

• PVDM4s do not have an external slot number. Therefore, the nomenclature for PVDM4s always has

0 in the first tuple. For example, the 3-tuple for an PVDM4 might be 0/4/x.

Hardware Installation Guide for the Cisco 4451-X Integrated Services Router

1-19

Chapter 1 Overview of the Cisco 4451-X Integrated Services Router

About Slot 1 and 2

Slot 1 and slot 2 are NIM slots. All enhanced SM slots start with 1.

Additional Slots

The Cisco ISR 4451-Xs have the following additional slots:

• P0: Field upgradable power supply slot 0

• P1: Field upgradable/replaceable power supply slot 1.

• INT-POE: Internal PoE card slot.

Subslot/Bay Numbering

• Integrated devices, also known as integrated ports or FPGEs, and integrated NIMs reside in a fixed

section of bay 0.

• Main board NIMs bays start at bay 1, since the integrated devices and integrated NIMs take up bay 0.

• The bay numbers for PVDM4s start with the next bay number after the last NIM bay number.

Specifications

• The two modular SATA slots share the same bay as the third NIM slot.

Gigabit Ethernet Management

The Cisco ISR 4451-X provides a Gigabit Ethernet Management port, called GE0. This port is the only 1-tuple port on the system. See the <chapter on Ethernet Management in SW Configuration Guide> for additional information about the Gigabit Ethernet Management port.

About Fixed Interfaces

The router supports fixed interfaces on the motherboard and on service modules. The system treats the onboard interfaces as if they lived on a virtual NIM plugged into bay 0. In this case, the front panel GigabitEthernet ports are considered slot 0 bay 0 (0/0/x). The onboard ports on the service module are slot 1 bay 0 (1/0/x).

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It 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 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 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.

General Precautions

Observe the following general precautions when using and working with your Cisco ISR 4451-X.

• Keep your system components away from radiators and heat sources and do not block cooling vents.

• Do not spill food or liquids on your system components and never operate the product in a wet

environment.

• Do not push any objects into the openings of your system components. Doing so can cause fire or

electric shock by shorting out interior components.

• Position system cables and power supply cables carefully. Route system cables and the power supply

cable and plug so that they cannot be stepped on or tripped over. Be sure that nothing else rests on your system component cables or power cable.

• Do not modify power cables or plugs. Consult a licensed electrician or your power company for site

modifications. Always follow your local and national wiring rules.

• If you turn off your system, wait at least 30 seconds before turning it on again to avoid system

component damage.

Rack Requirements

Some Cisco routers include brackets for use with a 19-inch rack or, if specified in your order, optional larger brackets for use with a 23-inch rack.

The following information can help you plan your equipment rack configuration:

• Allow clearance around the rack for maintenance.

• Allow at least one rack unit of vertical space between routers.

• Enclosed racks must have adequate ventilation. Ensure that the rack is not congested, because each

router generates heat. An enclosed rack should have louvered sides and a fan to provide cooling air. Heat generated by equipment near the bottom of the rack can be drawn upward into the intake ports of the equipment above it.

OL-27644-01

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

exhaust ports. If the chassis is installed on slides, check the position of the chassis when it is seated in the rack.

Chapter 2 Preparing for Router Installation

Router Environmental Requirements

Cisco ISR 4451-Xs can be placed on a desktop or installed in a rack. The location of your router and the layout of your equipment rack or wiring room are extremely important considerations for proper operation. Equipment placed too close together, inadequate ventilation, and inaccessible panels can cause malfunctions and shutdowns, and can make maintenance difficult. Plan for access to both front and rear panels of the router.

When planning your site layout and equipment locations, refer to the “General Site Requirements”

section on page 2-7, section. If you are currently experiencing shutdowns or an unusually high number

of errors with your existing equipment, these precautions and recommendations may help you isolate the cause of failure and prevent future problems.

• Ensure that the room where your router operates has adequate air circulation. Electrical equipment

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

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

Damage” section on page 2-7 to avoid damage to equipment. Damage from static discharge can

cause immediate or intermittent equipment failure.

• Ensure that the chassis cover and module rear panels are secure. All empty network module slots,

interface card slots, and power supply bays 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 permits air leaks, which may interrupt and reduce the flow of air across internal components.

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

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

Router Environmental Requirements

• When equipment installed in a rack (particularly in an enclosed rack) fails, try operating the

equipment by itself, if possible. Power off other equipment in the rack (and in adjacent racks) to allow the router under test a maximum of cooling air and clean power.

Chapter 2 Preparing for Router Installation

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 discusses 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 hardware flow control and 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 speeds slower than modems do; therefore, the console port is ideally suited for use with console terminals.

Console Port Connections

The router has both EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous (RJ-45) and USB 5-pin mini Type B, 2.0 compliant serial console ports. The console ports do not have any hardware flow control. Shielded USB cables with properly terminated shields are recommended.

Network Cabling Specifications

EIA/TIA-232

USB Serial Console

Note Always use shielded USB cables with a properly terminated shield.

Depending on the cable and the adapter used, this port appears as a DTE or DCE device at the end of the cable. Only one port can be used at the same time.

The default parameters for the console port are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. The console port does not support hardware flow control. For detailed information about installing a console terminal, see the “Connecting to a Console Terminal or Modem” section on page 3-14.

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

The USB serial console port connects directly to the USB connector of a PC using a USB Type A to 5-pin mini USB Type-B cable. The USB Console supports full speed (12Mb/s) operation. The console port does not support hardware flow control.

The default parameters for the console port are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit. For detailed information about installing a console terminal, see the “Connecting to a Console Terminal or

Modem” section on page 3-14.

For operation with a Microsoft Windows OS version older than Windows 7, the Cisco Windows USB Console Driver must be installed on any PC connected to the console port. If the driver is not installed, prompts guide you through a simple installation process. For detailed information about installing the Cisco Windows USB Console Driver see “Installing the Cisco Microsoft Windows USB Device Driver”

section on page 3-16.

Chapter 2 Preparing for Router Installation

The Cisco Windows USB Console Driver allows plugging and unplugging the USB cable from the console port without affecting Windows HyperTerminal operations. No special drivers are needed for Mac OS X or Linux.

Only one console port can be active at a time. When a cable is plugged into the USB console port, the RJ-45 port becomes inactive. Conversely, when the USB cable is removed from the USB port, the RJ-45 port becomes active.

Baud rates for the USB console port are 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 bps.

Note 4-pin mini USB Type-B connectors are easily confused with 5-pin mini USB Type-B connectors.

Only the 5-pin mini USB Type-B is supported.

Chapter 4 Initial Configuration

Configuring the Enable and Enable Secret Passwords

To provide an additional layer of security, particularly for passwords that cross the network or are stored on a TFTP server, you can use either the enable password command or enable secret command. Both commands accomplish the same thing—they allow you to establish an encrypted password that users must enter to access privileged EXEC (enable) mode.

We recommend that you use the enable secret command because it uses an improved encryption algorithm. Use the enable password command only if you boot an older image of the Cisco IOS XE software.

For more information, see the “Configuring Passwords and Privileges” chapter in the Cisco IOS Security

Configuration Guide. Also see the Cisco IOS Password Encryption Facts tech note and the Improving Security on Cisco Routers tech note.

Restrictions

If you configure the enable secret command, it takes precedence over the enable password command; the two commands cannot be in effect simultaneously.

Gigabit Ethernet Management Interface Overview

The router provides an Ethernet management port, named GigabitEthernet0.

OL-27644-01

Hardware Installation Guide for the Cisco 4451-X Integrated Services Router

4-9

Chapter 4 Initial Configuration

The purpose of this interface is to allow users to perform management tasks on the router; it is an interface that should not and often cannot forward network traffic but can be used to access the router via Telnet and SSH to perform management tasks on the router. The interface is most useful before a router has begun routing, or in troubleshooting scenarios when other forwarding interfaces are inactive.

The following aspects of the management ethernet interface should be noted:

• The router has one management ethernet interface named GigabitEthernet0.

• IPv4, IPv6, and ARP are the only routed protocols supported for the interface.

• The interface provides a way to access to the router even if forwarding interfaces are not functional,

or the IOS process is down.

• The management ethernet interface is part of its own VRF. See the “Management Ethernet Interface

VRF” section in the Software Configuration Guide for the Cisco 4451-X Integrated Services Routers for more details.

Default Gigabit Ethernet Configuration

By default, a forwarding VRF is configured for the interface with a special group named “Mgmt-intf.” This cannot be changed. This isolates the traffic on the management interface away from the forwarding plane. Otherwise, the interface can be configured like other Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for most functions.

Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router

For example, the default configuration is as follows:

interface GigabitEthernet0 vrf forwarding Mgmt-intf ip address 172.18.77.212 255.255.255.240 negotiation auto

Gigabit Ethernet Port Numbering

The Gigabit Ethernet Management port is always GigabitEthernet0.

The port can be accessed in configuration mode.

Router# config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)#interface gigabitethernet0 Router(config-if)#

Configuring Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces

This sections shows how to assign an IP address and interface description to an Ethernet interface on your router.

Specifying a Default Route or Gateway of Last Resort

This section describes how to specify a default route with IP routing enabled. For alternative methods of specifying a default route, see the Configuring a Gateway of Last Resort Using IP Commands tech note.

The Cisco IOS-XE software uses the gateway (router) of last resort if it does not have a better route for a packet and if the destination is not a connected network. This section describes how to select a network as a default route (a candidate route for computing the gateway of last resort). The way in which routing protocols propagate the default route information varies for each protocol.

Default Routes

Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router

You can configure integrated routing and bridging (IRB) so the router can route and bridge simultaneously. The router will act as an IP host on the network whether routing is enabled or not. To read more about IRB see the following URL on Cisco.com,

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk389/tk815/tk855/tsd_technology_support_sub-protocol_home.html

IP routing is automatically enabled in the Cisco ISO- XE software. When IP routing is configured, the system will use a configured or learned route to forward packets, including a configured default route.

is disabled, refer to the Configuring a Gateway of Last Resort Using IP Commands tech note on Cisco.com.

A router might not be able to determine the routes to all other networks. To provide complete routing capability, the common practice is to use some routers as smart routers and give the remaining routers default routes to the smart router. (Smart routers have routing table information for the entire internetwork.) These default routes can be passed along dynamically, or can be configured into the individual routers.

Most dynamic interior routing protocols include a mechanism for causing a smart router to generate dynamic default information that is then passed along to other routers.

Default Network

If a router has an interface that is directly connected to the specified default network, the dynamic routing protocols running on the router will generate or source a default route. In the case of RIP, the router will advertise the pseudonetwork 0.0.0.0. In the case of IGRP, the network itself is advertised and flagged as an exterior route.

A router that is generating the default for a network also may need a default of its own. One way a router can generate its own default is to specify a static route to the network 0.0.0.0 through the appropriate device.

Gateway of Last Resort

When default information is being passed along through a dynamic routing protocol, no further configuration is required. The system periodically scans its routing table to choose the optimal default network as its default route. In the case of RIP, there is only one choice, network 0.0.0.0. In the case of IGRP, there might be several networks that can be candidates for the system default. The Cisco IOS-XE software uses both administrative distance and metric information to determine the default route (gateway of last resort). The selected default route appears in the gateway of last resort display of the show ip route EXEC command.

If dynamic default information is not being passed to the software, candidates for the default route are specified with the ip default-network global configuration command. In this usage, the ip default-network command takes an unconnected network as an argument. If this network appears in the routing table from any source (dynamic or static), it is flagged as a candidate default route and is a possible choice as the default route.

Chapter 4 Initial Configuration

SUMMARY STEPS

Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router

If the router has no interface on the default network, but does have a route to it, it considers this network as a candidate default path. The route candidates are examined and the best one is chosen, based on administrative distance and metric. The gateway to the best default path becomes the gateway of last resort.

Configuring Virtual Terminal Lines for Remote Console Access

Virtual terminal (vty) lines are used to allow remote access to the router. This section shows you how to configure the virtual terminal lines with a password, so that only authorized users can remotely access the router.

The router has five virtual terminal lines by default. However, you can create additional virtual terminal lines. See the Cisco IOS XE Dial Technologies Configuration Guide at

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/dial/configuration/guide/2_xe/dia_2_xe_book.html.

Line passwords and password encryption is described in the Cisco IOS XE Security Configuration

Guide: Secure Connectivity at the following URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/ios_xe/sec_secure_connectivity/configuration/guide/2_xe/sec_se cure_connectivity_xe_book.html. See the Security with Passwords, Privilege Levels, and Login Usernames for CLI Sessions on Networking Devices section. If you want to secure the vty lines with an

access list, see the Access Control Lists: Overview and Guidelines.
