Setup Command Facility
Following is an explanation of the slot/port numbering:
• Logical interface numbering for the built-in T1/E1 ports runs from 0/0 through 0/15. Interfaces are
hardwired; therefore, port 0 is always logical interface 0/0, port 1 is always logical interface 0/1, and
so on. Built-in T1/E1 ports are numbered bottom to top, left to right (bottom row numbered
0-2-4-6-8-10-12-14, top row numbered 1-3-5-7-9-11-13-15).
• When the 2 HWIC slots are used to expand the T1/E1 port density to 20 or 24 ports, logical interface
numbering continues from 1/0 through 1/3 and 2/0 through 2/3. Logical interfaces for HWIC0 are
always 1/0 through 1/3 and logical interfaces for HWIC1 are always 2/0 through 2/3. Because the
interfaces are hardwired, HWIC0 port 0 is always logical interface 1/0, HWIC0 port 1 is always
logical interface 1/1, HWIC1 port 0 is always logical interface 2/0, HWIC1 port 1 is always logical
interface 2/1, and so on. Ports are numbered left to right for each HWIC.
• Logical interface numbering for the built-in Ethernet ports runs from 0/0 through 0/5. Because the
interfaces are hard-wired, ports correspond to logical interface numbers. For example, port 0 is
always logical interface 0/0, and port 1 is always logical interface 0/1. SFP ports are numbered left
to right, 0 and 1; 100/1000 Ethernet ports are numbered left to right, 2 through 5.
Setup Command Facility
The setup command facility prompts you for information that is required to start a router functioning
quickly. The facility steps you through a basic configuration, including LAN interfaces.
If you prefer to configure the router manually or to configure a module or interface that is not included
in the setup command facility, go to Chapter 2, “Cisco IOS Software Basics.” to familiarize yourself
with the command-line interface (CLI). Then, go to Chapter 4, “Configuring the Cisco MWR 2941
Router Using the CLI.”
Note Cisco Networking Services (CNS) is a collection of services that can provide remote configuration of
Cisco IOS networking devices and remote execution of some command-line interface (CLI) commands.
CNS allows a Cisco MWR 2941 deployed and powered on in the field to automatically download its
configuration. For more information about CNS, see the “Cisco Networking Services (CNS)” section on
page 1-36.
Before Starting Your Router
Before you power on your router and begin using the setup command facility, follow these steps:
Step 1 Set up the hardware and connect the console and network cables as described in the “Connecting Cables”
section of the Cisco MWR 2941-DC Router Hardware Installation Guide.
Step 2 Configure your PC terminal emulation program for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
