Downloading the Saved Configuration from the TFTP Server and Configuring the I/O Controller’s Fast Ethernet Port

Step 2 At the rear of the router, place the power switch on the power supply in the ON (|)

position. Repeat this step if a second power supply is installed in the router. The green

OK LED on the power supply turns on.

Step 3 Listen for the fans; you should immediately hear them operating.

Step 4 During the boot process, observe the system’s LEDs. The LEDs on most of the port

adapters and Cisco uBR7200 series cable modem cards go on and off in irregular

sequence. Some may go on, go out, and go on again for a short time. On the I/O controller,

the IO power OK LED comes on immediately.

Step 5 Observe the initialization process. When the system boot is complete (a few seconds), the

network processing engine begins to initialize the port adapters, Cisco uBR7200 series

cable modem cards, and the I/O controller. During this initialization, the LEDs on each

port adapter behave differently (most ﬂash on and off). The enabled LED on each port

adapter and Cisco uBR7200 series cable modem card goes on when initialization is

completed, and the console screen displays a script and system banner similar to the

following:

Downloading the Saved Conﬁguration from the TFTP Server and Conﬁguring

the I/O Controller’s Fast Ethernet Port

After you install a new I/O controller in the router and verify a successful router boot, you must

retrieve the router’s conﬁguration from the TFTP server and copy it to NVRAM. Use the copy tftp

running-conﬁg command to copy the saved conﬁguration from the TFTP ﬁle server. The system

prompts you for a host name and address, the name of the conﬁguration ﬁle stored on the host, and

conﬁrmation to reboot using the remote ﬁle.

If you replaced an I/O controller without the Fast Ethernet port with an I/O controller with the Fast

Ethernet port, you will most likely want to conﬁgure the new interface after retrieving the router’s

conﬁguration from the TFTP server and copying it to NVRAM.

Before retrieving the router’s conﬁguration ﬁle from the TFTP ﬁle server, check the following:

• A console terminal is connected to the console port on the I/O controller, or a Telnet session is

established to the router

• The router is connected to a network supporting a ﬁle server (remote host)

• The remote host supports the TFTP application

• You have the name or address of the remote host
