Installing the Hardware

Follow these steps to install, conﬁgure, and connect your router:

Step 1 Install the router hardware using the procedures described in this chapter. Refer to

the appendix “Regulatory Compliance” if you are installing the router in the

United Kingdom, Europe, or Italy.

Step 2 After installing the hardware, refer to the appropriate software publication to

conﬁgure the router.

Note All Cisco technical documentation is available on UniverCD, Cisco’s online library

of product information. UniverCD is updated monthly, so it is sometimes more up to date

than printed documentation. UniverCD is available both as a single CD-ROM or as an

annual subscription. To order UniverCD, call Customer Service.

Step 3 See the “Preparing for External Connections” section in this chapter for cabling

instructions. If necessary, see the “Reference” chapter for basic troubleshooting,

Flash memory, and cable-pinout information.
