System Specifications

For more information on the weight, power consumption, environmental specifications, and other details, see Cisco 8010 Series Router Data Sheet.

RJ45 Connectors

The RJ45 connector connects Category 3, Category 5, Category 5e, Category 6, or Category 6A foil twisted-pair or unshielded twisted-pair cable from the external network to the following module interface connectors:

  • Router chassis

    • CONSOLE port

    • MGMT ETH port


Caution


To comply with GR-1089 intrabuilding, lightning immunity requirements, you must use a foil twisted-pair (FTP) cable that is properly grounded at both ends.

The following figure shows the RJ45 connector.

To set the description of the alarm:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios(config)# environment alarm-contact contact-number description description 

To set the severity of the alarm:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios(config)# environment alarm-contact contact-number severity [critical | major | minor]  [

To set the trigger for the alarm:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios(config)# environment alarm-contact contact-number trigger [open | closed] 

Note


You can configure up to four external alarms.


The contact-number is the pin number of the connected alarm port, that is Alarm input 1 to Alarm input 4.

The description string can be up to 80 alphanumeric characters in length and is included in any generated system messages.

For severity , enter any one of: critical, major, or minor.

Description and severity are both mandatory values.

Use the show alarms command in admin mode to view the alarm details. Use the show logging command to view the displays the state of syslog error and event logging.

An SNMP trap is sent for every external alarm that is raised or cleared on the system.
