7 Interface Numbering
Each individual interface (port) on a Cisco 2691 router is identified by number as described in the following sections.
WAN and LAN Interface Numbering
The Cisco 2691 router chassis contains the following WAN and LAN interface types:
•Built-in LAN interfaces: Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Token Ring
Note The MTU size for the NM-1GE module cannot be set to support jumbo frames on the Cisco 2691 router.
•Two or three slots in which you can install WAN interface cards (WICs)
•One slot in which you can install a network module
The numbering format is Interface-type Slot-number/Interface-number. Two examples are:
•Ethernet 0/0
•Serial 1/2
The slot number is 0 for all built-in interfaces and 0 for all WIC interfaces; the slot number is 1 for network module interfaces.
Interface (port) numbers begin at 0 for each interface type, and continue from right to left and (if necessary) from bottom to top.
Figure 10 shows a router with:
•A 2-port T1 network module in slot 1 (containing the following ports: T1 1/0 and T1 1/1)
•Two built-in Ethernet 10/100 interfaces—Fast Ethernet 0/0 and Fast Ethernet 0/1
•A WIC in each WIC slot (containing interfaces Serial 0/0 and Serial 0/1 in physical slot W0, interface Serial 0/2 in physical slot W1, and interface BRI 0/0 in physical slot W2)
–If physical slot W0 is empty and physical slot W1 contains a 1-port serial WIC, the interface number in the WIC is numbered Serial 0/0.
–If slot W0 contains a 2-port serial WIC and slot W1 contains a 1-port serial WIC, the interfaces in physical slot W0 are numbered Serial 0/0 and Serial 0/1, and the interface in physical slot W1 is numbered Serial 0/2.
–If slot W0 contains a 2-port serial WIC and slot W1 contains a 1-port BRI WIC, the interfaces in physical slot W0 are numbered Serial 0/0 and Serial 0/1, and the interface in physical slot W1 is numbered BRI 0/0.
Note The slot number for all WIC interfaces is always 0. (The W0 and W1 slot designations are for physical slot identification only.) Interfaces in the WICs are numbered from right to left, starting with 0/0 for each interface type, regardless of which physical slot the WICs are installed in.
Figure 10 Interface Numbering in Cisco 2691 Routers
Voice Interface Numbering
Voice interfaces are numbered as follows:
chassis-slot/voice-module-slot/voice-interface
If a 4-channel voice network module is installed in chassis slot 1, the voice interfaces are:
•1/0/0—Chassis slot 1/Voice module slot 0/Voice interface 0
•1/0/1—Chassis slot 1/Voice module slot 0/Voice interface 1
•1/1/0—Chassis slot 1/Voice module slot 1/Voice interface 0
•1/1/1—Chassis slot 1/Voice module slot 1/Voice interface 1
