This appendix includes the following sections:

Router Configuration Differences Between the Cisco ISR G2 and the Cisco ISR 4000 Series

The examples in the following table provide the key differences between the Cisco ISR G2 configuration and the Cisco ISR 4000 series configuration.

Cisco ISR G2 Configuration

Cisco ISR 4000 Series Configuration


interface GigabitEthernet0/0
 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0

interface ucse 1/0
 ip unnumbered GigabitEthernet0/0
 imc ip address 10.0.0.2 255.0.0.0 default-gateway 10.0.0.1
 imc access-port shared-lom console


interface ucse1/1

ip route 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.255 ucse1/0

interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0
 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0

ucse subslot 1/0
 imc access-port shared-lom console
 imc ip address 10.0.0.2 255.0.0.0 default-gateway 10.0.0.1 

interface ucse1/0/0
 ip unnumbered GigabitEthernet0/0/0
 no negotiation auto
 switchport mode trunk

ip route 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.255 ucse1/0/0

Note the following differences:

  • In the Cisco ISR 4000 series, the interface ucse slot/port command is replaced by the ucse subslot slot/subslot and the interface ucse slot/subslot/port commands.

  • In the Cisco ISR G2, you can use either the dedicated interface or one of the shared local area network on motherboard (shared LOM) interfaces to configure CIMC access.

    In the Cisco ISR 4000 series, you can use either the management interface or one of the NIC interfaces to configure CIMC access. See Configuring Access to the Management Firmware.

    In the above example, the command configures CIMC access using the E-Series Server's internal GE0 NIC interface, where:

    • imc access-port—CIMC access port configuration.

    • ge0E-Series Server's internal GE0 NIC interface.

The command to session into the server has also changed:

  • In the Cisco ISR G2, you use the ucse slot session {imc | host} command to session into the server.

  • In the Cisco ISR 4000 series, you use the hw-module subslot slot/0 session {imc | server} command to session into the server.

Router Configuration Differences Between the E-Series Server and the EHWIC E-Series NCE—Cisco ISR G2

The examples in the following table provide the key differences between the E-Series Server configuration and the EHWIC E-Series NCE configuration.

E-Series Server Configuration

EHWIC E-Series NCE Configuration


interface GigabitEthernet0/0
 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0

interface ucse 1/0
 ip unnumbered GigabitEthernet0/0
 imc ip address 10.0.0.2 255.0.0.0 default-gateway 10.0.0.1
 imc access-port shared-lom console


interface ucse 1/1
 switchport mode trunk

ip route 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.255 ucse 1/0

interface GigabitEthernet0/0
 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0

interface ucse 0/1/0
 ip unnumbered GigabitEthernet0/0
 imc ip address 10.0.0.2 255.0.0.0 default-gateway 10.0.0.1
 imc access-port shared-lom console


interface ucse 0/1/1
 switchport mode trunk

ip route 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.255 ucse 0/3/0

Note the following differences:

  • In the EHWIC E-Series NCE, the interface ucse slot/port command is replaced by the interface ucse 0/subslot/port command.

  • In the EHWIC E-Series NCE, the ip route cimc-ip-address subnet-mask ucse slot/port command is replaced by the ip route cimc-ip-address subnet-mask ucse 0/subslot/port command.

  • In Cisco IOS Release 15.4(3)M, for both the E-Series Servers and NCEs, all ucse slot x commands are replaced by the ucse subslot slot/subslot x command.
