Connecting the PRP to an Ethernet Network
Figure 3-9 Flash Memory Card Slot Opening
Ensure that a console terminal is connected to the RP console port and turned on,
or that you have a remote login to the router from another device through a Telnet
session.
Connecting the PRP to an Ethernet Network
The PRP includes two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, each using an 8-pin RJ-45
receptacle for either IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T (10 Mbps) or IEEE 802.3u
100BASE-TX (100 Mbps) connections. The transmission speed of the Ethernet
ports is auto-sensing by default and is user configurable.
To connect cables to the PRP Ethernet interfaces (ports labeled ETH0 and ETH1),
attach the Category 5 UTP cable directly to a RJ-45 receptacle on the PRP.
Note The Ethernet interfaces on the PRP are end-station devices, not repeaters;
therefore, you must connect an Ethernet interface to a repeater or hub.
RJ-45 cables are not available from Cisco Systems, but are available from outside
commercial cable vendors.
