Warning This equipment must be installed and maintained by service personnel as defined by AS/NZS 3260. Incorrectly connecting this equipment to a general-purpose outlet could be hazardous. The telecommunications lines must be disconnected 1) before unplugging the main power connector or 2) while the housing is open, or both. Statement 1043


Installation Methods

For stability and ease of use, the Cisco uBR10012 router chassis should be mounted in an equipment rack. The chassis can be mounted in a 19-inch (standard) equipment rack (either the 4-post equipment rack or the telco-type equipment rack) or in a 23-inch rack.


Note For 23-inch racks, optional mounting brackets must be ordered from third-party vendors.



Caution The Cisco uBR10012 router chassis should always be secured in the equipment rack for normal use and operations.

The rack-mount kit that is shipped with the Cisco uBR10012 router includes four mounting brackets for mounting the chassis in a standard 19-inch wide equipment rack (4-post equipment rack or telco-type). One set of mounting brackets is sufficient to properly secure the router chassis, but an additional set can also be ordered for mounting the chassis from the front and the back.


Note Although installing the chassis in a rack-mount is preferred for permanent installations, you can mount the router in an alternate location, such as on an equipment shelf or on a tabletop for testing or diagnostic purposes.


Preparing the Cisco uBR10012 Router for Rack-Mounting

The Cisco uBR10012 router chassis can be installed in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or telco rack, either front or rear mounted, and either flush or offset from the rack.

This section describes the following guidelines and steps that must be followed before rack-mounting the Cisco uBR10012 router:

General Rack Installation Guidelines

Removing the Power Modules, Fan Assembly, and Line Cards

Attaching the Mounting Brackets

Installing the Cable Management Brackets (Optional)


Caution Before performing any of the steps in this section, be certain you have read and understood the guidelines given in Chapter 2, "Preparing for Installation."

General Rack Installation Guidelines

When planning your rack installation, consider the following guidelines:

The Cisco uBR10012 router chassis requires a minimum of 18 rack units (31.5 in. or 80 cm) of vertical rack space. Measure the proposed rack location before mounting the chassis in the rack.

Before using a particular rack, check for obstructions (such as a power strip) that could impair rack-mount installation. If a power strip does impair a rack-mount installation, remove the power strip before installing the chassis, and then replace it after the chassis is installed.

Allow sufficient clearance around the rack for maintenance. If the rack is mobile, you can push it back near a wall or cabinet for normal operation and pull it out for maintenance (installing or moving line cards, connecting cables, or replacing or upgrading components). Otherwise, allow 19 in. (48.3 cm) of clearance to remove FRUs.

Maintain a minimum clearance of 3 in. (7.62 cm) on the front and back of the chassis for the cooling air inlet and exhaust ports, respectively. Avoid placing the chassis in an overly congested rack or directly next to another equipment rack; otherwise, the heated exhaust air from other equipment can enter the inlet air vents and cause an overtemperature condition inside the router.


Caution To prevent chassis overheating, never install a Cisco uBR10012 router in an enclosed rack or room that is not properly ventilated or air conditioned.

If also installing the optional AC-input power shelf, allow at last two rack units below the Cisco uBR10012 chassis for the power shelf installation. Install the AC-input power shelf after you have installed the Cisco uBR10012 chassis to avoid the possibility of accidentally crushing the power shelf during the router's installation.

Cisco recommends installing an optional equipment shelf in the rack for the Cisco uBR10012 chassis because it simplifies installation, but this is not required.

Always install heavier equipment in the lower half of a rack to maintain a low center of gravity to prevent the rack from falling over. However, if you are also installing an AC-power shelf, leave enough space for the power shelf plus 2 rack units (RUs) underneath the Cisco uBR10012 chassis.

Ensure that cables from other equipment already installed in the rack do not impair access to the cards, or require you to disconnect cables unnecessarily to perform equipment maintenance or upgrades.

Install rack stabilizers (if available) before you mount the chassis.

Provide an adequate chassis ground (earth) connection for your router chassis.

In addition to the preceding guidelines, review the precautions for avoiding excessive temperature conditions in the "Temperature and Humidity Requirements" section on page 2-6.

Removing the Power Modules, Fan Assembly, and Line Cards

The Cisco uBR10012 router is shipped with all ordered components already installed in the chassis. When fully configured, the Cisco uBR10012 chassis weighs approximately 230 lbs (104.3 kg).


Caution You must use a hydraulic lift or forklift to move a fully populated chassis.

If you have to move a fully populated chassis and you do not have a hydraulic lift or forklift available, you must first remove the following components from the chassis:

AC or DC power entry modules (PEMs)

Fan assembly module

Cable interface line cards

Network uplink line cards, Slot splitter, and half-height Gigabit Ethernet line cards

In a fully loaded chassis, these components weigh approximately 170 lbs (77.11 kg), removing the components allows the chassis to be moved ssfely using two people. Reinstall the components after the chassis has been moved and installed. Use the following procedures to remove these components.

Removing the Front Cover


Caution Remove all power from the unit and turn off the power at the source before proceeding.


Step 1 Remove the front cover by lifting it up slightly and then pulling it toward you (Figure 3-1), and carefully set it aside.

Figure 3-1 Removing the Cisco uBR10012 Chassis Front Cover

Figure 3-5 Removing the AC PEM


Removing the Fan Assembly


Step 1 Loosen the captive screws on each side of the fan assembly module (Figure 3-6).

Step 2 Use two hands to pull the module out of the chassis.


Caution The fan assembly module weighs approximately 30 lbs (13.61 kg). Use one hand to pull the fan assembly module using its handle and position the other hand underneath the module to support it, so that it does not suddenly swing down when it clears the chassis.

Step 3 Set the fan assembly module aside.

Figure 3-6 Removing the Fan Assembly Module


Removing the Cable Interface Line Cards and Uplink Cards


Step 1 To remove the cable interface and network uplink line cards, move to the rear of the chassis.

Step 2 Unscrew the top and bottom captive screws (Figure 3-7).

Step 3 Simultaneously pivot both ejector levers away from each other to disengage the line card from the backplane (Figure 3-8).

Step 4 Slide the line card out of the slot (see Figure 3-8).

Step 5 Place the card on an antistatic surface or in an antistatic bag.

Step 6 Repeat Step 2 through Step 5 to remove the other cable interface line cards and the network uplink cards.


Caution If you are using the Cisco uBR-MC28C or Cisco uBR-MC16xx line cards, do not attempt to separate or remove the line cards from the Cisco uBR10-LCP2 adapter card while they are installed in the Cisco uBR10012 chassis. The line cards and adapter cards must be removed from the chassis as a complete unit before they can be separated.

Step 3 Loosen the top and bottom captive screws until they disengage and spring away from the face plate (Figure 3-9).

Step 4 Simultaneously pivot both ejector levers away from each other to disengage the line card from the backplane (Figure 3-10).

Step 5 Slide the line card out of the slot splitter and place it on an antistatic surface or in an antistatic bag.

Step 6 If you are not installing a replacement line card, install a blank faceplate in the slot.

Figure 3-10 Opening the Ejector Levers


Caution Do not operate the system unless all slots contain a line card or a blank faceplate. Always install a full-slot blank faceplate into an empty slot. Half-height blank faceplates do not have air dams, and the empty slot will rob cooling air from the other slots. A slot splitter with one half-height line card and one blank faceplate is allowed.


Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
Statement 1029



Removing the Slot Splitter

Use the following procedure to remove a slot splitter from the chassis:


Step 1 Attach an antistatic wrist strap to your wrist and to the ESD socket on the chassis, or to a bare metal surface on the chassis or frame).

Step 2 Remove any line cards from the splitter according to the "Removing a Half-Height Gigabit Ethernet Line Card" section.

The slot splitter does not have ejector levers to disengage cards from the backplane, so you must remove any line cards before you remove the splitter.

Step 3 Loosen the top and bottom captive screws on the slot splitter (Figure 3-11).

Figure 3-11 Captive Screw Locations

Step 4 Slide the splitter out of the slot (Figure 3-12).

Step 5 If you are not installing a replacement splitter or a line card, install a full-slot blank faceplate in the slot.

Figure 3-12 Removing the Slot Splitter


Attaching the Mounting Brackets

The Cisco uBR10012 router is shipped with four mounting brackets that can be attached to either the front or rear of the chassis, depending on your mounting preferences. The brackets can be mounted either flush with the edge of the chassis or set back to allow the chassis to be offset mounted in the rack.

Figure 3-13 shows the mounting brackets shipped with the Cisco uBR10012 chassis for use with a standard 19-inch equipment or telco rack:

Figure 3-13 Mounting Brackets for the Cisco uBR10012 Router


Note The four mounting brackets shipped with the Cisco uBR10012 router are for a standard 19-inch equipment rack or telco rack. Optional mounting brackets are orderable separately from third-party vendors to install the chassis in a 23-inch rack.


Use the following procedure to attach the mounting brackets to the chassis.


Step 1 Determine whether you will be mounting the chassis with the front or rear facing forwards.

Step 2 Determine whether you will flush-mount or offset-mount the chassis. Typically, flush-mounting is used for most equipment racks except for telco racks that require offset-mounting. If either style can be used, choose the one that is most convenient for your site.

Step 3 Attach two mounting brackets to each side of the chassis in the appropriate locations. The large mounting bracket is attached to the top of the chassis, and the smaller bracket is attached to the bottom of the chassis.

Attach the brackets as shown in the following figures, using the screws that are supplied with the brackets:

Figure 3-14 shows how to attach the brackets to flush-mount the chassis with the front forwards.

Figure 3-15 shows how to attach the brackets to flush-mount the chassis with the rear forwards.

Note You must use three screws to install each large bracket and two screws to install each small bracket.



To install the optional cable management brackets, proceed to the next section. Otherwise, proceed to the "Mounting the Chassis in the Rack" section for instructions on mounting the Cisco uBR10012 chassis in the equipment or telco rack.

Installing the Cable Management Brackets (Optional)

The Cisco uBR10012 router is shipped with two cable-management brackets that are installed on the rear of the router's chassis to route the cables connected to the cable interface line cards.

Figure 3-17 shows the rear of the Cisco uBR10012 chassis with the two cable-management brackets installed.

Figure 3-17 Installing the Optional Cable Management Brackets

Use the following procedure to install the optional cable-management brackets on the rear of the Cisco uBR10012 chassis:


Step 1 Position the first mounting bracket immediately above the cable interface line card installation slots. Make sure that the portion of the bracket with the slots is above the mounting holes, so that the bracket will not interfere with the insertion and removal of the line cards. See Figure 3-17.)

Step 2 Align the mounting holes on the far left and far right on the bracket first, so that the center mounting hole will be aligned properly.

Step 3 Use the three screws that are provided in the accessory kit to attach the bracket to the chassis.

Step 4 Attach the bottom cabl- management bracket in a similar manner, making sure that the slot edge of the bracket is pointing down. See Figure 3-17.


Note Make sure that the slot edge on the bracket is pointed downward, otherwise the bracket interferes with the insertion and removal of the cable interface line cards.


Step 5 Insert cable ties through the slots on the top and bottom of the brackets and use the cable ties as needed to secure the cables for the line card interfaces along the top and bottom of the chassis.


Mounting the Chassis in the Rack

With the fan assembly, PEMs, and line cards removed from the chassis and the mounting brackets installed on the chassis, the Cisco uBR10012 chassis is ready for installation in a 19-inch equipment rack or telco rack. Use the following procedure to install the chassis.

Warning


To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:

This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

Connecting the Alarm Indicators

Use the following procedure to connect an alarm indicator to the chassis:


Step 1 Obtain sufficient wire for the desired connections. You will need two wires for each set of relays, or six separate wires to connect all three relay contacts. Use the gauge of wire required by the audible or visual alarm indicator equipment you are using (14 AWG maximum gauge).


Warning Use copper conductors only. Statement 1025



Caution The alarm contacts on the Cisco uBR10012 router are only relays and do not provide any power from the unit. These relays are rated for 60 VDC, 1 A maximum—ensure that the connected alarm equipment does not exceed these voltage and current ratings.

Step 2 Strip approximately 0.31 in. (8 mm) of insulation off the ends of the alarm indicator wire (see Figure 3-24).

Figure 3-24 Stripping Insulation

Step 3 Connect one set of alarm indicator wires to the alarm terminal block as follows (see Figure 3-25):

a. Connect one lead to the common (COM) terminal.

b. If you are wiring the router in with other equipment for the alarm indicators, wire the other lead to the normally closed (NC) terminal.

c. If you are wiring the router in parallel with other equipment for the alarm indicators, wire the other lead to the normally open (NO) terminal.


Caution Figure 3-25 shows the wiring configuration for NO alarm relays. The wiring configuration for NC alarm relays is similar but uses the NC contacts.

Step 4 Repeat step 3 for the remaining alarm indicators.

Step 5 Secure the power cabling to the chassis by feeding a tie wrap through the square slot on the left front side of the chassis (next to the alarm indicator terminal block) and binding the wires.

Figure 3-25 Alarm Terminal Block Connections

Step 6 Go to the next section, Connecting the Console Port and Auxiliary Port, to continue the installation.

Reinstalling the Fan Assembly Module


Step 1 Using two hands, pick up the fan assembly module.


Caution The fan assembly module weighs approximately 30 lbs (13.61 kg)

Step 2 Align the module with the slot in the chassis.

Step 3 Push the fan module back firmly into the chassis, making sure that the module securely connects to the backplane. See Figure 3-26.

Step 4 Tighten the captive screws on each side of the fan assembly module.

Figure 3-26 Replacing the Fan Assembly


Reinstalling the DC Power Entry Modules


Step 1 Position the first DC PEM in the power bay and push it forward, verifying that it goes all the way in and makes a secure connection with the backplane. See Figure 3-27.

Step 2 Tighten the captive screws to secure the DC PEM.

Step 3 Repeat these steps to replace the second DC PEM.


Note If you are installing an AC PEM see Reinstalling the AC Power Entry Modules.


Figure 3-27 Installing a DC PEM


Reinstalling the AC Power Entry Modules

If you are replacing DC PEMs with AC PEMS or replacing a redundant AC PEM, see Removing and Replacing DC Power Entry Modules, page 5-8 and Removing and Replacing AC PEM Modules, page 5-20.


Note Each of two power bays in the Cisco uBR10012 chassis is above a DC terminal block that is used to provide power only when you are using the DC PEM modules. Do not use these DC terminal blocks when you are using the AC PEMs. If you have previously used this Cisco uBR10012 router with DC PEMs, first verify that these DC terminal blocks are not currently connected before proceeding with the installation or replacement of the AC PEMs.



Step 1 Verify that the power switch on the replacement AC PEM is in the standby position (Figure 3-28).

Figure 3-28 AC PEM Standby Position and AC Plug Location

Step 2 Position the AC PEM in the power bay and push it forward, verifying that it goes all the way in and makes a secure connection with the backplane (Figure 3-29).

Step 3 Use the screwdriver to tighten the captive screws to secure the unit to the chassis.

Step 4 Plug the AC-input power cable into the power receptacle on the front panel of the AC PEM. See Figure 3-28.

Step 5 Route the power cable up the front of the AC PEM and clip it into the two plastic retaining clips attached to the surface of the PEM. Route the power cable out through the right side, so that it will fit through the notch on the right side of the front bezel cover (Figure 3-30).

Step 6 Plug the other end of the AC-input power cable into a 200-240 VAC power outlet. For fully redundant operation, each AC PEM should use separate power sources, or you should be using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The FAULT LED on the AC PEM should be yellow to indicate that the AC PEM is receiving power from the power source but is not yet supplying power to the Cisco uBR10012 chassis.

Step 7 Push up the power switch on the AC PEM to the ON (|) position. See Figure 3-28.


Note When you turn on the power switch on the AC PEM, the Fault LED should go off and the POWER LED should come on (green).


Figure 3-29 Replacing the AC PEM

Step 8 If you are installing the front bezel cover,

a. Slide the front bezel cover onto the four corner posts of the chassis.

b. Push down, so that the posts are seated in the grooves above the cover holes.

c. Route the AC power cables through the notch on the right side of the cover.

Figure 3-30 Routing the AC Cables


Reinstalling the Line Cards and Uplink Cards

After the chassis has been firmly attached to the rack, reinstall the cards in the chassis (also see Removing and Replacing a Cable Interface Line Card, page 5-59 for details).


Caution The Cisco uBR10012 router supports only the Cisco uBR10-LCP2-MC28C cable interface line card or Cisco uBR10-LCP2-MC16x cable interface line card bundles. Do not install the Cisco uBR10-LCP2 adapter card in the Cisco uBR10012 chassis without either the Cisco MC16x or the Cisco MC28C installed in the adapter card.

Also, do not attempt to remove the Cisco MC28C card or the Cisco MC16x card from their carriers (adapter cards) while the they are installed in the chassis. See the "Removing and Replacing a Cable Interface Line Card" section on page 5-59 for information on this procedure.


Step 1 Grasp the faceplate of the first line card with one hand and place your other hand under the card carrier (to support the weight of the card) and position the card in front of the appropriate card cage slot.

Step 2 Carefully align the upper and lower edges of the line card with the upper and lower guides in the chassis, and slide the cable interface line card into the slot until you can feel it begin to seat in the backplane connectors (Figure 3-31).

Step 3 Simultaneously pivot both ejector levers toward each other (until they are parallel to the faceplate) to firmly seat the card in the backplane (Figure 3-32).

Step 4 Finger tighten the captive screws to secure the card in the chassis.


Caution Do not tighten the captive screws until after you insert all the additional cards. Tightening the captive screws before all the line cards are installed, can cause the installation slot for the last line card to be restricted and make it difficult to install the card.

Step 5 Repeat Step 1through Step 4 for each cable interface line card and network uplink card.

Step 6 After all the line cards and network uplink cards are inserted, tighten the captive screws. (Torque 5 to 7 in-lbs.)


Tip Tighten line card 1, then tighten line card 8, tighten line card 2 then line card 7. Alternate back and forth between the line cards until all of them are secure in the chassis.



Tip These screws prevent accidental removal and provide proper grounding for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding.

Installing the Slot Splitter and Half-Height Gigabit Ethernet Line Card

This section describes how to install the line card in the Cisco uBR10012 router. This section includes the following tasks:

Installing the Slot Splitter

Installing the Half-Height Gigabit Ethernet Line Card


Caution You must use slot 3 or slot 4 when installing the slot splitter and HHGE line card in the Cisco uBR10012 router, using slot 1 or slot 2 will cause the router to shut down those slots.


Caution Do not install two half-height blank faceplates into the same slot in the slot splitter. Instead, install a full-slot blank faceplate into the slot. The half-height blank faceplates do not have air dams, and the empty slot will rob cooling air from the other slots. A slot splitter with one half-height line card and one blank faceplate is allowed.


Caution Do not install a line card into the slot splitter before installing the splitter into the chassis. The slot splitter does not have ejector levers that allow you to seat the line card in the backplane.

Installing the Slot Splitter

You must install the half-height line card into a slot that contains a slot splitter, which can hold two half-height line cards. If both slots of the slot splitter are not used, then you must install a blank faceplate in the empty slot.

Follow these steps to install a slot splitter into slot 3 or slot 4 (Figure 3-33) of the Cisco uBR10012 chassis.


Step 1 Attach an antistatic wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket on the chassis, or to a bare metal surface on the chassis or frame.

Step 2 Grasp the front of the slot splitter with one hand and place your other hand under the splitter. Position the splitter in front of the card cage slot.

Step 3 Carefully align the upper and lower edges of the slot splitter with the upper and lower guides in the chassis, and slide the splitter into the slot until the front is flush with the chassis.


Note The slot splitter shown in Figure 3-34 has one open slot (top) and one slot with a slot cover (bottom)


Secure the slot splitter to the chassis by tightening the top and bottom captive screws (Figure 3-35).

Figure 3-33 HHGE Line Card Locations

Figure 3-34 Inserting the Slot Splitter

Figure 3-35 Captive Screw Locations


Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
Statement 1029



Installing the Half-Height Gigabit Ethernet Line Card

Use the following procedure to install a HHGE line card into an installed slot splitter. See the "Installing the Slot Splitter" section to install the slot splitter.

If you are replacing a line card, see the "Removing a Half-Height Gigabit Ethernet Line Card" section before you begin this procedure.


Step 1 Attach an antistatic wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket on the chassis, or to a bare metal surface on the chassis or frame.

Figure 3-36 Inserting the Line Card

Step 2 Grasp the faceplate of the line card with one hand and place your other hand under the card carrier (to support the weight of the card). Position the card in front of the slot splitter.

Step 3 Carefully align the upper and lower edges of the line card with the upper and lower guides in the slot splitter, and slide the line card about half-way into the splitter.

Step 4 Be sure the ejectors are in the open position (as shown) and continue to push the line card into the splitter until you can feel it begin to seat in the backplane connectors.

Step 5 Verify that the captive screws are properly aligned with the captive screw holes in the splitter. If the captive screws are not properly aligned, the card will not seat properly in the backplane.

Step 6 Simultaneously pivot both ejector levers toward each other (until they are parallel to the faceplate) to firmly seat the card in the backplane (Figure 3-37).

The line card cycles through its power-on self-test. The FAIL LED lights during portions of the POST (Power-On Self Test), but remains off after POST on a properly working line card. If the FAIL LED remains on, go to the "Troubleshooting the HHGE Installation" section on page 4-13.

Figure 3-37 Closing the Ejector Levers

Figure 3-38 Captive Screw Locations

Step 7 Secure the line card in the slot splitter by tightening the top and bottom captive screws (Figure 3-38).


Caution To ensure that there is adequate space for additional line cards, always tighten the captive screws on each newly installed line card before you insert any additional line cards. These screws prevent accidental removal and provide proper grounding for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding.


Connecting the Console Port and Auxiliary Port

The PRE module on the Cisco uBR10012 router has two asynchronous serial (EIA/TIA-232) RJ-45 ports that provide connections for a console (an ASCII terminal or PC running terminal emulation software) and modem for remote access.

Recommended Tools and Supplies

The Cisco uBR10012 router arrives with a console and auxiliary cable kit, which contains the cable and adapters you need for the most common connections to these devices.

Table 3-6 lists the tools and supplies that you need to connect the Console and auxiliary ports.

Comments

RJ-45 to RJ-45 crossover cable

RJ-45-to-DB-25 male DCE adapter

labeled MODEM

ESD-preventive wrist strap



Note A crossover cable reverses pin connections from one end to the other. In other words, it connects pin 1 (at one end) to pin 8 (at the other end), pin 2 to pin 7, pin 3 to pin 6, and so on. You can identify a crossover cable by comparing the two modular ends of the cable. Hold the cable ends in your hand, side-by-side, with the tabs at the back. Ensure that the wire connected to the outside (left) pin of the left plug (pin 1) is the same color as the wire connected to the outside (right) pin of the right plug (pin 8).

Also see "How to Identify an RJ-45 Crossover Cable" section on page B-5.


Use the following procedures to connect to the console and auxiliary ports on a PRE module.


Note For more information about the console port and auxiliary port connectors, see the "Console and Auxiliary Port Cables and Pinouts" section on page B-2.


Connecting to the Console Port

The console port provides local administrative access to the router and its command-line interface (CLI).


Note Each PRE module must have a console port connection (typically to a terminal server) when running a redundant configuration in the chassis.



Step 1 Connect one end of the RJ-45 crossover cable to the serial RJ-45 port (labelled CONSOLE) on the PRE module (Figure 3-39).

Figure 3-39 Console Port Connection on the PRE Module

Step 2 Run the other end of the crossover cable through the square hole at the left front side of the chassis, and connect it to the RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter (see Figure 3-40):

Figure 3-40 Connecting an RJ-45-to-DB-9 Console Cable Adapter

Step 3 Connect the adapter to the appropriate serial port on the PC or terminal to complete the console port cable connection.

Step 4 Power on the PC or terminal.

Step 5 Configure the PC terminal emulation software or the terminal for the following default settings:

9600 baud

8 data bits

No parity generation or checking

1 stop bit

No flow control

Step 6 If also connecting a modem to the auxiliary port, go to the next section, "Connecting to the Auxiliary Port." Otherwise, go to the "Connecting Network Management Cables" section to continue the installation.


Connecting to the Auxiliary Port

The auxiliary port provides a connection for a modem to allow remote access to the router and its command-line interface (CLI).


Step 1 Connect one end of the RJ-45 crossover cable to the serial RJ-45 port (labelled AUX) on the PRE module (Figure 3-41).

Figure 3-41 Auxiliary Port Connection on the PRE Module

Step 2 Run the other end of the crossover cable through the square hole at the left front side of the chassis, and connect it to the RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter.

Step 3 Connect the adapter to the serial port on the modem to complete the auxiliary port cable connection.

Step 4 Power on the modem.

Step 5 Make sure that the modem and auxiliary port on the router are configured for the same transmission speed (38.4 Kbps and 56 Kbps are typical). Configure the modem for auto-answer and for hardware flow control using the Data Carrier Detect (DCD) and Data Terminal Ready (DTR) signals.

Step 6 Go to the "Connecting Network Management Cables" section to continue the installation.


Connecting Network Management Cables

The Cisco uBR10012 router has connections to both the internal Ethernet management network and the external data network. The internal Ethernet management network connections are made through an Ethernet port on the front panel of the PRE module.These connections are described in the Ethernet Network Management Cable Connections.

Keep the following guidelines in mind when connecting external cables to the Cisco uBR10012 router:

To reduce the chance of interference, avoid crossing power lines with any interface cables.

Verify all cabling limitations (particularly distance) before powering on the system.

Ethernet Network Management Cable Connections

The PRE module provides an Ethernet port to a LAN for a 10Base-T or 100Base-T connection for network management. Use the following procedures to connect the Cisco uBR10012 router to an Ethernet network.


Note Each PRE module must have an Ethernet port connection (typically to the same Ethernet hub) if you are running a redundant configuration in the chassis. However, only the active PRE module has an active Ethernet connection to the network.


Connecting to a 10Base-T Ethernet Network

To make a 10Base-T Ethernet LAN connection, you need the following additional equipment (not included):

An Ethernet hub (such as a Cisco Micro Hub)

An Ethernet cable that meets the following specifications:

RJ-45 (male) to RJ-45 (male) straight-through cable

100-ohm category 3, 4, or 5, no longer than 328 feet (100 meters)

You can identify a straight-through Ethernet cable either by using a cable tester or by making a visual inspection. To make a visual inspection, hold the two ends of a cable side by side, with the tab for each at the back.

The wire connected to the left-most pin (pin 1) on one connector should be the same color as the wire connected to the left-most pin on the other connector.

The same rule applies to pins 2 through 8 on each connector. The color of the wire attached to a pin on one connector should match the color of the wire attached to the corresponding pin on the other connector.

Follow these steps to connect the PRE to a 10Base-T Ethernet LAN.


Step 1 Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port on the primary PRE, labeled Ethernet (see Figure 3-42).

Step 2 Run the other end of the Ethernet cable through the square hole at the left front side of the chassis, and connect this end of the cable to any unoccupied port on the Ethernet hub.


Tip When power is applied to the chassis, check the LNK (Link) LED on the PRE faceplate port next to the Ethernet port. This LED lights (green) if the PRE is correctly connected to the 10Base-T Ethernet LAN.


Figure 3-42 Connecting 10Base-T to an Ethernet Port


Connecting to a 100Base-T Ethernet Network

To make a 100Base-T Ethernet LAN connection, you need the following additional equipment (not included):

An Ethernet hub (such as a Cisco Micro Hub)

An Ethernet UTP cable that meets the following specifications:

RJ-45 (male) to RJ-45 (male) straight-through cable.

100-ohm category 5 cable not longer than 328 feet (100 meters).

You can identify a straight-through Ethernet cable either by using a cable tester or by making a visual inspection. To make a visual inspection, hold the two ends of a cable side by side, with the tab for each at the back.

The wire connected to the left-most pin (pin 1) on one connector should be the same color as the wire connected to the left-most pin on the other connector.

The same rule applies to pins 2 through 8 on each connector. The color of the wire attached to a pin on one connector should match the color of the wire attached to the corresponding pin on the other connector.


Caution If the Cisco uBR10012 router is used in an environment in which lightning-induced transients are likely to couple to the signal lines, use of shielded interconnection cables for the 100Base-T ports is highly recommended. In addition, use of shielded interconnection cables for the 100Base-T ports is required to meet Telcordia (formerly Bellcore) GR1089 CORE Section 4.5.9 and ETSI Section 5.2.2.2 (intrabuilding lightning surge).

The RJ-45 port on the PRE is configurable for 100-Mbps full-duplex or half-duplex operation (half-duplex is the default) and supports IEEE 802.3, Ethernet, and IEEE 802.3u interfaces compliant with 100Base-T specifications.

Follow these steps to connect the PRE to a 100Base-T Ethernet LAN.


Step 1 Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port on the primary PRE, labeled Ethernet (Figure 3-43).

Step 2 Run the cable up and through the cable management bracket and connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to any unoccupied port on the Ethernet hub.


Tip When power is applied to the chassis, check the LNK (Link) LED on the PRE faceplate port next to the Ethernet port. This LED lights (green) if the PRE is correctly connected to the 100Base-T Ethernet LAN.

Note If you have completed all cable connections, go to the "Replacing the Front Cover" section to continue the installation. If you are using Gigabit Ethernet line cards, go to "Connecting a Single-Port Gigabit Ethernet Line Card" section.


Connecting a Single-Port Gigabit Ethernet Line Card

The single-port Gigabit Ethernet (GE) line card provides a trunk uplink running at 1 Gbps in full duplex mode to devices such as content servers and Web caches. The port uses a Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) that supports Gigabit Ethernet rates on a variety of Gigabit Ethernet interface types (SX, LX/LH, ZX). For a list of qualified GBICs and cable lengths, see Table 1-20.

Use the following procedure to install a GBIC and then connect a fiber cable to the GBIC.


Note If a GBIC is already installed in the GE line card, begin this procedure at Step 2.



Step 1 Review the warnings at the start of the network uplink section.

Step 2 Insert the GBIC into the GE line card port until the tabs lock into place (Figure 3-44).

Figure 3-44 Inserting the GBIC


Note The GBIC is "keyed" and can only be fully inserted one way. If you can only insert the GBIC one quarter of the way into the port, remove it, turn it over, and reinsert it into the port.


Step 3 Remove the protective plug from the GBIC by pulling it off.


Caution Make sure your fiber optic connectors are clean and debris free. Refer to Inspection and Cleaning Procedures for Fiber-Optic Connections at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk482/tk876/technologies_white_paper09186a0080254eba.shtml

Step 4 Attach the fiber optic cable to the GBIC port (Figure 3-45).

Figure 3-45 Connecting the Cable to the GBIC Port

Step 5 Run the cable through the cable bracket on the bottom of the line card and then out to the left or right of the chassis (Figure 3-46).

Figure 3-46 Gigabit Ethernet Cable Management

Step 6 If you have completed all cable connections, go to the next section, "Replacing the Front Cover" to continue the installation.


Replacing the Front Cover

Use the following procedure to replace the front cover on the chassis:


Step 1 Slide the cover onto the four corner posts of the chassis and then push down so that the posts are seated in the grooves above the cover holes (Figure 3-47).

Figure 3-47 Attaching the Cover to the Chassis

Step 2 Continue with the "Powering On the System" section to continue the installation.


Powering On the System

After all of the interfaces and other cables are connected, perform a visual check of all connections and then check that:

The ejector levers on each line card are in the locked position.

All top and bottom line card captive screws are tight.

All network interface cables are connected.

The console terminal is turned on.

A PC media card is installed in the PRE module.

You are now ready to power on the system for the first time using the following procedure:


Step 1 Verify that each DC PEM is turned off.

Step 2 Turn on power at the power supply that is supply the DC power for the chassis.


Note If using the 2400W AC-input power shelf, this step requires plugging the three AC power cords into the back of the unit and into the outlets providing the AC power source. The AC OK and DC OK LEDs on the AC-input power shelf should both light, indicating that both AC-input and DC-output power is present.


Step 3 After turning on the DC power source, verify that the Fault LED on each DC PEM lights (yellow), which indicates that the DC PEM is receiving power from the DC power source but is not yet supplying power to the chassis (because its power switch is off).

If the Fault LED does not light, turn off the DC power source and verify that the wiring from the DC power source to the two terminal blocks underneath each DC PEM is correct, as described in the "Connecting DC Power to the Cisco uBR10012 Router" section.


Tip If the Miswire LED lights on either PEM, it indicates that the two wires from the DC source (-48/-60 VDC and RTN) were reversed when connected. Turn off the DC power source and reverse the two wires so that the -48/-60 VDC lead is connected to the bottom terminal and the RTN lead is connected to the top terminal (see Figure 3-22).


Step 4 At the front of the chassis, turn the power switches on each DC PEM to the ON ( | ) position (Figure 3-48).

Figure 3-48 Cisco uBR10012 Router DC PEM Power Switches (On Position)

Step 5 Verify that all LEDs are lighting properly:

a. The Power LED on each DC PEM should light (green), indicating that DC power is being received and is being delivered to the chassis.

If the other LEDs on the PEM (Miswire or Fault) light (yellow), see the "Removing the DC Power Entry Modules" section or "Removing the AC Power Entry Module" section.

b. Listen to the fans as power is applied. When you first apply power to the chassis, the fans in the fan assembly module initially operate at high speed, but if all four fans are operating correctly, and if the temperature of the chassis is in the nominal operating range, the fans will slow down to their normal operating speed.

c. The OK LED on the fan assembly module should light (green), indicating that all fans in the blower are operating properly. You should be able to feel air being taken in at the bottom front of the chassis and being blown out at the top rear of the chassis (see Figure 2-1 on page 2-6).

If either the Single Fan Failure or Multiple Fan Failure LED lights (yellow), see the "Removing the Fan Assembly" section.

d. The Fail LED on each PRE module should light (yellow) briefly during the power-on sequence but then should turn off.

If the Fail LED does not turn off on either PRE, verify that the ejector levers are fully closed and that the captive screws have been tightened. If necessary, remove the PRE from the chassis and reinsert it or replace it (see the "Removing and Replacing the PRE Module" section on page 5-28).

When the power-on sequence is complete, the PRE begins to initialize the line cards. Continue with the next section, "Configuring the Cisco uBR10012 Router at Startup," to configure the line cards.


Configuring the Cisco uBR10012 Router at Startup

This section explains how to create a basic running configuration for your Cisco uBR10012  router using the Cisco uBR10012 router setup facility or the IOS command line interface (CLI). For information on modifying the configuration after you create it, refer to:

Basic Configuration Using the Setup Facility

The first time you power on a Cisco uBR10012 router, the setup facility starts. You can also initiate the facility by running the setup command in privileged EXEC mode. This facility helps you enhance a default configuration that already exists on the Cisco uBR10012 router. The setup facility uses a question and answer sequence called the System Configuration Dialog to walk you through configuring the router.

You do not have to configure the interfaces immediately; however, you cannot enable the interfaces or connect them to any networks until you have configured them.


Tip Basic configuration setup is often used as a quick way to achieve network connectivity, allowing you to retrieve a configuration file from a TFTP server.


System Configuration Dialog

Use the System Configuration Dialog to help you perform a basic configuration. Proceed through the dialog by answering questions and then pressing the Enter key. In most cases, you can get additional information by entering a question mark (?). Throughout the dialog, default values are shown in square brackets [ ].


Tip If you have experience using Cisco routers, consider configuring the router by using the procedure described in the "Basic Configuration in Global Configuration Mode" section.


To cancel the configuration dialog, press Ctrl-C, or you can let the dialog help you perform one of two configuration types:

Basic configuration setup configures only enough connectivity for management of the system.

Extended setup asks you to configure each interface and is not appropriate for configuring the Cisco uBR10012 router. For more information, see the Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

You can run the setup facility any time you are at the enable prompt (#) by entering the command setup.

Configuring the System Using System Configuration Dialog

Use the following procedure to perform a basic configuration using the System Configuration Dialog:


Step 1 The dialog starts by asking if you want to continue with the configuration dialog. Enter Yes. To return to the enable prompt, enter No.

--- System Configuration Dialog ---
Continue with configuration dialog? [yes/no]: yes

Step 2 Enter Yes to perform a basic management setup. Enter No to perform an extended configuration setup.

Would you like to enter basic management setup? [yes/no]: yes

Step 3 Specify a hostname. The hostname becomes part of the IOS prompt.

Enter host name [Router]: my-router


Step 4 Specify a secret password. It appears in encrypted form in the configuration file.

Enter enable secret: my_secret

Step 5 Specify the enable password. It is used if you did not assign a secret one.

Enter enable password: my_password

Step 6 Specify the password to use for telnet sessions.

Enter virtual terminal password: my_vt

Step 7 At the configure system management prompt, enter No.

Configure System Management? [yes/no]: no

Step 8 If you want to access the router using SNMP, enter Yes at the prompt:

Configure SNMP Network Management? [yes]: yes

Step 9 Specify an SNMP community string.

Community string [public]: public


Setting Up the Interface

After you respond to the SNMP questions, the setup script lists the interfaces. The following table lists typical interfaces found on a Cisco uBR10012 router.

Interface

Interfaces that are not okay (OK? = NO) do not have a valid configuration.


Step 1 To achieve network connectivity, enter the interface for the FastEthernet interface.

Enter interface name used to connect to the management network from the above interface 
summary: FastEthernet0/0/0

Step 2 Accept the default value for the type of connector. RJ-45 is the only connector that can be used on the Cisco uBR10012 router Ethernet port.

Configuring interface FastEthernet0/0/0:
Use the 100 Base-TX (RJ-45) connector? [yes]: yes

Step 3 Configure both the Cisco uBR10012 router and the remote device to use the same mode.

Operate in full-duplex mode? [no]: no

Step 4 You must enter the IP address to achieve network connectivity.

Configure IP on this interface? [yes]: yes

Step 5 Specify the IP address.

IP address for this interface: 172.27.48.209

Step 6 Enter the subnet mask for the IP address.

Subnet mask for this interface [255.255.0.0]: 255.255.0.0

The system displays the information you entered as well as several default commands, such as the no shutdown command.

For example:

The following configuration command script was created:
hostname c10012
enable secret 5 $$1$uror$EFU0hKOBQXhk975qKFZlL0
enable password <xxx>
line vty 0 4
password <xxx>
no snmp-server
!
no ip routing
!
interface FastEthernet0/0/0
no shutdown
media-type 100BaseX
half-duplex
ip address 172.27.48.209 255.255.0.0
!
end

Step 7 The setup script concludes by giving you the choice to exit without saving, start the setup script, or save the configuration file:

[0] Go to the IOS command prompt without saving this config.
[1] Return back to the setup without saving this config.
[2] Save this configuration to nvram and exit.

Enter your selection [2]:

Step 8 After you complete the configuration dialog, enter global configuration mode and enable ip routing by entering the ip routing command:

router(config)#ip routing

Basic Configuration in Global Configuration Mode

The following command sequence allows you to perform a configuration similar to that generated by the setup command.

Router>configure terminal
Router(config) #hostname c10012
Router(config) #enable secret <my_router>
Router(config) #enable password <my_rtr>
Router(config) #snmp-server community public
Router(config) #ip routing
Router(config) #interface FastEthernet0/0/0
Router(config-if) #no shutdown
Router(config-if) #media-type 100BaseX
Router(config-if) #half-duplex
Router(config-if) #ip address 192 255.255.0.0
Router #copy running-config startup-config

You can now configure the line cards. For specific information on system and interface configuration, refer to the Cisco uBR10012Universal Broadband Router Software Configuration Guide at the following URL:

Formatting PC Media Cards

The PC media card that shipped with your PRE contains the default Cisco IOS image for booting your router. This section explains how to format a PC media card, modify its contents, or resolve a problem with the card.


Caution The formatting procedure erases all information on the PC media card.


Note The Cisco uBR10012 router uses PC media cards that are a minimum of 64 MB in size.


Flash memory ATA disks and Flash memory cards use similar commands. The primary syntax change is that disk0: or disk1: refers to Flash memory ATA disks while slot0: or slot1: refers to Flash memory cards.

Use the following procedure to format a Flash memory disk:


Step 1 Ensure there is a PC media card in slot 0 or slot 1 of the PRE.

Step 2 Enter the format diskn: command at the privileged EXEC mode prompt to format the card.

The following example shows the display after you enter the format disk0: command:

Router# format disk0: 
All sectors will be erased, proceed? [confirm] 
Enter volume id (up to 30 characters): MyNewdisk 
Formatting sector 1 
Format device slot0 completed 
Router#

The PC media card is ready for use.
