Installing a WAN Interface Card in a Cisco 1720 Router or
Cisco 1600 Series Router
This section describes how to install a WAN interface card in a Cisco 1720 router or
Cisco 1600 series router.
To install a WAN interface card in a Cisco 3600 series or Cisco 2600 series router, see the
“Installing a Network Module in a Cisco 3600 Series or Cisco 2600 Series Router” section
on page 2-2, or the “Before Installing a Voice Interface Card” section on page 2-5.
Note The Cisco 1720 router contains two WAN interface card slots, WIC0 and WIC1.
(See Figure 2-6.)
The router first checks slot WIC0 before it checks slot WIC1. A single card installed in
WIC1 could affect your router configuration.
If you are installing a single WAN interface card in the router, install the card in the WIC0
slot.
