Safety with Electricity

Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power source.

Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws and regulations.

Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or replace this equipment.

Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.

Follow these guidelines when working on equipment powered by electricity:

Locate the emergency power-OFF switch in the room in which you are working. Then, if an electrical accident occurs, you can quickly shut the power OFF.
Disconnect all power before doing the following:

Installing or removing a chassis
Working near power supplies

Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit. Always check.
Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:

Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.
Turn OFF power to the system.
If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, determine the condition of the victim and then call for help.
Determine if the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take appropriate action.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replacing cards. Ensure that the chassis is electrically connected to earth ground. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to ground. To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.

For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and 10 megohm (Mohm).

Software Requirements

The MICA carrier card requires the following images:

Cisco IOS Release 11.3(2)T or later
Boot Flash image Release 11.2(11)P
Modem code version 2.2.3.0 (56K)

Before physically installing a MICA carrier card in an Cisco AS5200, you must upgrade the boot Flash image in the access server's boot Flash memory as described in the section "Installing a New MICA Carrier Card."

Required Tools and Equipment

To install the MICA modules and carrier cards, you will need the following tools and equipment which are not included:

Blank slot covers for open slots
Medium-size flat-head screwdriver (1/4 in. [0.625 cm])
ESD-preventive wrist strap and mat
Antistatic bag (optional)

MICA Carrier Card Indicators

The LEDs on the front panel of the MICA carrier card (see Figure 1) indicate the current operating condition of the 6-port MICA modules installed on the card. You can observe the LEDs, note any fault condition that the product is encountering, and then contact your system administrator or a customer service representative, if necessary. See the section "Cisco Connection Online," for details. Refer to Table 1 <Xref_Color> for a description of the LEDs.

Figure 1 MICA Carrier Card LEDs

Table 1 MICA Carrier Card LEDs

LED	State	Description
Activity (ACT)¹	Flickering	There is modem call activity on the MICA modules.
	Off	There is no modem call activity on the MICA modules.
Board OK (OK)	One flash	The carrier card is powering up.
	On	The carrier card has passed initial power-up diagnostics tests and is operating normally.
	Off	A fault condition occurred.

1The individual 6-port MICA modules do not include LEDs.

Installing a New MICA Carrier Card

Successful installation of the new MICA modem carrier card requires these steps:

1. Upgrade the Cisco IOS image

2. Upgrade the Boot Flash image

3. Install the MICA carrier card

4. Upgrade modem code (optional)

See the following sections for details.

Upgrade the Cisco IOS Image

If you own a SMARTnet contract, you can obtain the Cisco IOS image at Cisco's Software Center home page at the following URL (this is subject to change without notice):

 
http://www.cisco.com/kobayashi/sw-center   

Upgrade the Boot Flash Image

Before you physically install your new 6-port MICA carrier card, you must upgrade the boot Flash image in the access server boot Flash memory.

Unless you upgrade the image before installing the carrier card, the installation will not be successful. Also, if your access server has only 4 MB of boot Flash, Cisco recommends upgrading to 8 MB of boot Flash as you might not have enough room to upgrade to the new boot Flash image. If you do not upgrade the boot Flash and wish to upload the new image to the 4-MB boot Flash, we recommend copying the contents of your boot Flash to a PC hard disk or network server location, and then erasing the boot Flash when prompted by the system. You can follow the procedures in the sections, "Upgrading Modem Code from the Cisco CCO TFTP Server" and "Upgrading Modem Code from Diskettes," later in this configuration note, to grade the boot Flash image.

Install the MICA Carrier Card

Before installing the card, make sure you have upgraded the Cisco IOS image and the boot Flash image, as described in the sections Upgrade the Cisco IOS Image and Upgrade the Boot Flash Image.

Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.

Before opening the chassis, disconnect the telephone-network cables to avoid contact with telephone-network voltages.

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal use.

Before working on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove jewelry (including rings, necklaces, and watches). Metal objects will heat up when connected to power and ground and can cause serious burns or weld the metal object to the terminals.

For DC-powered units only, note the following warning:

Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is OFF, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position.

To install a new MICA module carrier card (see Figure 2), do the following:

Step 1 Remove the carrier card from the ESD-preventive mat.

Step 2 Slide the carrier card into the slot until it touches the backplane connector.

Step 3 Align the captive screws with their holes, and then seat the carrier card completely.

Step 4 Tighten the two captive screws to secure the carrier card to the chassis.

Figure 2 Carrier Card Installation

Step 5 If the access server is configured with fewer than three cards, ensure proper airflow inside the chassis by installing a blank slot cover is installed over each open slot. Note that you can order blank slot covers from Cisco. The part number is AS52M-BLANK=.

Removing a MICA Carrier Card

The MICA carrier cards are not hot-swappable (that is, you cannot remove or install them when the power to the access server is ON). Be sure to turn OFF the power to the access server before installing or removing carrier cards. Failure to do so can damage the access server.

Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.

Before opening the chassis, disconnect the telephone-network cables to avoid contact with telephone-network voltages.

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal use.

For DC-powered units only, note the following warning:

To remove the MICA carrier card, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap.

Step 2 Power OFF the access server.

Step 3 On the back of the access server, locate the MICA carrier card (see Figure 1).

Step 4 Loosen the two captive screws that secure the carrier card to the chassis until each screw is free of the chassis (see Figure 2).

Step 5 Hold the captive screws and gently pull the carrier card free of the chassis. If the card is hard to remove, insert a flat-head screwdriver vertically into the left and right sides of the board and gently pry the board loose (see Figure 3). Then, hold the captive screws and gently pull out the carrier card.

Step 6 Set the removed carrier card aside on an ESD-preventive mat.

The EMI protective devices on the carrier cards are designed to make the cards fit tightly. When removing the cards, they can release suddenly. Exercise caution when removing cards.

Figure 3 Prying the Carrier Card Loose

Removing a 6-Port MICA Module

To remove the 6-port MICA modules, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Make sure that you have attached an ESD-preventive wrist strap and that the system is powered OFF.

Step 2 On the carrier card, locate the 6-port MICA module you will replace (see Figure 4).

Figure 4 6-Port MICA Carrier Card

Step 3 Orient the module so that the MICA module socket faces away from you.

Step 4 Gently pry the edges of the 6-port MICA module away from the standoffs, as shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5 Prying the 6-Port MICA Module from the Standoffs

Step 5 Push the two socket latches away from the MICA module, as shown in Figure 6.

Figure 6 Releasing the 6-Port MICA Module from the Socket Latch

Step 6 Remove the MICA module from its socket, as shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7 Removing the 6-Port MICA Module

Installing a 6-Port MICA Module

To install a 6-port MICA module:

Step 1 Insert the 6-port MICA module into the socket at a 45\xb0 angle.

Step 2 Seat the 6-port MICA module in the socket and press its edges onto the standoffs, as shown in Figure 8.

Figure 8 Installing the 6-Port MICA Module

Upgrading Modem Code

Modem code is a generic term applied to a modem code file, which is also called portware for MICA modems and firmware for Microcom modems.

With new systems, Cisco loads a Cisco IOS software-compatible version of modem code and copies the version to the installed modem modules. A map of the version(s) of modem code copied to the modem RAM for each modem module is stored in nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM) so that it is retained over power cycles.

Note You do not have to take any action to use the pre-installed version of modem code with new systems.

You can acquire new modem code in several ways:

Cisco periodically releases new modem code versions (with bug fixes or new modem features) that improve your system's overall modem performance.
Cisco also might ship modem code on diskette with spare boards or offer modem code for purchase with spare boards.
Modem code is also available on the Cisco Software Center (URL http://www.cisco.com/kobayashi/sw-center/) for owners of SMARTnet contracts. Note that this url is subject to change without notice.

This section describes how to upgrade modem code on your access server modems by:

1. Understanding the modem code scenarios possible for your access server.

2. Choosing an upgrade strategy.

3. Finding out the modem code version installed on your access server.

4. Upgrading the modem code.

Cisco ships the access server with the latest version of modem code installed in the boot Flash memory and mapped to the modems. If you choose to use the modem code bundled with your installed Cisco IOS software, you could be reverting to a previous version of modem code. Also note that once you map the bundled modem code (using the copy system:/ucode/filename modem or copy ios-bundled modem command) to your modems, each time you upgrade the Cisco IOS software, the new bundled modem code is automatically mapped to your modems. See "Displaying Modem Code Versions," later in this document, for details on displaying mode code versions mapped to modems, installed in boot Flash memory, and bundled with the Cisco IOS software on your access server.

How to Obtain Modem Code

You can obtain modem code in one of two ways:

Bundled in regular Cisco IOS releases. See "Using the Modem Code Bundled with Cisco IOS Software" for details.
Unbundled from Cisco Connection Online (CCO) or supplied on diskette. This can be either a more up-to-date version of modem code released before the next Cisco IOS release (when the modem code will be bundled with the Cisco IOS release), or a special version of modem code shipped with a new board. See "Upgrading Modem Code from the Cisco CCO TFTP Server" and "Upgrading Modem Code from Diskettes" for details.

Important Modem Upgrade Commands

There are several commands you use to upgrade modem code. For examples on using the commands, see "Upgrading Modem Code from the Cisco CCO TFTP Server," "Upgrading Modem Code from Diskettes," and "Using the Modem Code Bundled with Cisco IOS Software," later in this document, for details.

Use the copy tftp flash filename command to copy any version of modem code (no matter how it is obtained) into boot Flash memory. You can store several versions of the modem code in boot Flash memory under different filenames.
Use the copy bootflash modem command to transfer a specified version (filename) of modem code from boot Flash memory to the modem RAM and map that version to the modem modules (slots/ports) specified in response to the modem range query.
Use the copy system:/ucode/filename modem command (or, for Cisco IOS releases earlier than 11.3A or 12.0, the copy ios-bundled command) to transfer the version of modem code bundled with Cisco IOS software release to the modem RAM and map that version to the modem modules (slots/ports) specified in response to the modem range query. To view a list of microcode filenames, use the dir system:/ucode command.

Choosing an Update Strategy

Because of multiple versions of modem code and the way Cisco IOS software processes these versions, Cisco suggests that you choose one of the following two strategies:

Always allow Cisco IOS software to select the version of modem code.
Always control the version of modem code used by the modules, independent of Cisco IOS selections.

To help with the decision, Figure 9 shows a hypothetical release process. Using the modem code bundled with Cisco IOS software is the easier strategy and enables you to take advantage of new modem code whenever you upgrade your Cisco IOS software. Note that you can also control the modem code by reverting to previous versions using the copy command as discussed later.

Figure 9 Release Timeline for Cisco IOS Software and Modem Code

Modem Code Scenarios

Table 2 provides scenarios that can occur when you upgrade Cisco IOS software or modem code.

Table 2 Modem Code Scenarios—Cisco IOS Software or Modem Code Upgrades

No.	Scenario	Update Process
1	You receive a new access server from the Cisco factory.	No action needed. The factory loads and maps a compatible version of modem code.¹
2	You update Cisco IOS software, and decide to use the version of modem code selected by Cisco IOS software.	Update Cisco IOS software. No further action needed—Cisco IOS software automatically downloads either its bundled version or a mapped version from boot Flash memory.²
3	You update Cisco IOS software, and decide not to use the modem code selected by Cisco IOS software.	Update Cisco IOS software. Copy the desired version of modem code file to boot Flash memory, then copy that file to the integrated modems on the 6-port module. See "Copy the Modem Code File from the Local TFTP Server to Modems," later in this document, for details.
4	The modems are running a version of modem code from boot Flash memory that is different than the version bundled with Cisco IOS software. You decide to revert to the bundled version.	Use the Cisco IOS command copy system:/ucode/filename modem (or, for Cisco IOS releases earlier than 11.3A or 12.0, copy ios-bundled modem). Note that once you map the bundled modem code to your modems, each time you upgrade the Cisco IOS software, the new bundled modem code is automatically mapped to your modems. See "Using the Modem Code Bundled with Cisco IOS Software" for details.
5	Cisco releases new modem code, which is a later version than the version currently running on the modems. You decide to use the new Cisco modem code.³	Copy the desired version of modem code file to boot Flash memory, then copy that file to the integrated modems on the 6-port module. See "Copy the Modem Code File from the Local TFTP Server to Modems," later in this document, for details.

1To find out the version of modem in your system, use the show modem mapping command. This command displays the versions bundled with Cisco IOS software (copied into Flash memory) and running on the modems.

2 In part, Cisco IOS software bases this decision on the last copy command issued. For more details about mapping, see Table 4.

3 Cisco might ship this modem code on a diskette packed with the 6-port MICA module.

Figure 10 shows a release timeline and Table 3 explains the resulting versions of Cisco IOS software and modem code.

Figure 10 Release Timeline for Cisco IOS Software and Modem Code

Table 3 Resulting Versions of Cisco IOS Software and Modem Code

Update Event Time	Update Event	Resulting Version of Cisco IOS Software and Modem Code
1	You upgrade Cisco IOS software to Release B. If there is no previous copy command, Cisco IOS software uses the bundled version. If invalid mapping, Cisco IOS software uses the bundled version. If last copy command was copy system:/ucode/filename modem (or, for Cisco IOS releases earlier than 11.3A or 12.0, copy ios-bundled modem), Cisco IOS software uses the bundled version. If last copy command was copy bootflash modem and Modem Code Version 1 was specified, Cisco IOS software copies the modem code from the boot Flash memory to the modems.	Cisco IOS Release B Modem Code Version 2 Cisco IOS Release B Modem Code Version 2 Cisco IOS Release B Modem Code Version 2 Cisco IOS Release B Modem Code Version 1
2	You upgrade Cisco IOS software to Release C. (Cisco IOS software uses mapping from last copy command at Time 1).¹	Cisco IOS Release C Modem Code Version 1
2	You enter the copy system:/ucode/filename modem command (or, for Cisco IOS releases earlier than 11.3A or 12.0, the copy ios-bundled modem command).	Cisco IOS Release C Modem Code Version 3
3	New Modem Code Version 4 is released, you copy the file to boot Flash memory, enter copy bootflash modem, and specify Modem Code Version 4.	Cisco IOS Release C Modem Code Version 4
4	You upgrade Cisco IOS software to Release D.	Cisco IOS Release D Modem Code Version 4
4	You enter the copy system:/ucode/filename modem command (or, for Cisco IOS releases earlier than 11.3A or 12.0, the copy ios-bundled modem command).	Cisco IOS Release D Modem Code Version 3

1This example assumes the last copy command was copy bootflash modem, and Modem Code Version 1 was specified.

Table 4 provides a list of modem code terminology and a description of how the terms are used in the modem code update process.

Table 4 Modem Code Terminology and Commands

Term	Description
Modem Code	Modem code resides in and runs out of modem RAM. Cisco IOS software transfers a version of modem code to modem RAM on each reboot and reload. Boot Flash memory can contain several versions of modem code: a version bundled with Cisco IOS software and multiple versions that resulted from previous copy tftp bootflash commands.
copy system:/ucode/filename modem command (or, for Cisco IOS releases earlier than 11.3A or 12.0, copy ios-bundled command	This command transfers the version of modem code bundled with Cisco IOS software to the modem RAM and maps that version to the modem modules specified by the modem range. This command does not affect any existing versions of modem code that reside in boot Flash memory. After one such command, future Cisco IOS upgrades will potentially result in the downloading of new Cisco IOS software bundled firmware to the modems. (If the new Cisco IOS image contains the same modem code as the old one, no new code will be downloaded to the modems.)
copy tftp bootflash filename command	Places a copy of the modem code in boot Flash memory.
copy bootflash modem command	This command transfers the version of modem code in boot Flash memory to the modem RAM and maps that version to the modem modules specified by the modem range.
Mapping commands	The copy commands map a specific version of modem code to a group of modem slots/ports. The copy system:/ucode/filename modem (or copy ios-bundled modem) command maps the slots/ports to the bundled version, and the copy bootflash modem command maps the slots/ports to the boot Flash memory version. Cisco IOS software uses the mapping to determine which version of modem code should be downloaded to the modems. If Cisco IOS software finds no mapping or invalid mapping, it downloads the bundled version. Although modem ranges are specified as slot/port, the modem code is downloaded on a per module basis. The show modem mapping command lists all Cisco IOS software and modem code files (bundled and unbundled) and their versions in the boot Flash memory and system Flash memory. This will help you decide if you need to update your modem code files.¹

1This command is supported in Cisco IOS Releases 11.2(11)P and 11.3(2)T.

Displaying Modem Code Versions

Use the show modem mapping command to list all modem code files in the boot Flash memory, system Flash memory, and the modem code files bundled with Cisco IOS software. This will help you decide if you need to update your modem code files.

Upgrading Modem Code from the Cisco CCO TFTP Server

Note You can access the Cisco CCO TFTP server only if you own a SMARTnet contract.

Upgrading modem code from the Cisco CCO TFTP server is a two-step process:

Download Modem Code from the Cisco CCO TFTP Server to a Local TFTP Server

You can download software from the CCO TFTP server using an Internet browser or FTP application. Both procedures are described below.

Note To download modem code from CCO to a PC and then upgrade the modem code to an access server connected to your PC via an Ethernet hub, you need to set up a TFTP application on your PC, establish a HyperTerminal session, and make sure your PC and access server are correctly connected and talking before downloading the modem code from CCO. All these procedures are described in "Upgrading Modem Code from Diskettes," later in this document.

Using an Internet Browser

Step 1 Launch an Internet browser.

Step 2 Bring up the Cisco Software Center home page at the following URL (this is subject to change without notice):

Step 9 Transfer these files to a local TFTP or RCP server that your access server can access.

Copy the Modem Code File from the Local TFTP Server to Modems

The procedure for copying the modem code file from your local TFTP server to the modems involves two steps. First, you need to transfer the code to the access server's boot Flash memory. Then, you need to transfer the code to the modems.

These two steps are performed only once. After you copy the modem code file into boot Flash memory for the first time, you should not have to perform these steps again. Because the modem code runs from modem RAM, the Cisco IOS software automatically copies the modem code to each modem each time the access server power cycles.

Perform the following steps to download modem code to MICA modems:

Step 1 Establish an xterm session to the access server if using a UNIX workstation, or a HyperTerminal session to the access server if using a PC. For details on establishing a HyperTerminal session, see "Upgrading Modem Code from Diskettes," later in this document, for details.

Step 2 Enter the access server enable mode (the prompt is displayed as 5200#):

 
5200> enable

 
Password: <password>

 
5200#

Step 3 Check the files in the access server boot Flash memory:

 
5200# show bootflash

 
Boot flash directory:

8192K bytes of processor board Boot flash (Read/Write)

Step 4 Download the modem code file from TFTP server into the access server boot Flash memory using the copy tftp bootflash command. After you enter the command, you are prompted for the download destination and the remote host name as requested by the system software.

 
5200# copy tftp bootflash

 
Boot flash directory:

Upgrading Modem Code from Diskettes

This section describes how to copy modem code from diskettes to your hard disk in a PC environment, and then upload the modem code to the modems. The steps are similar if you are using a Macintosh or UNIX workstation.

Note If you loaded Cisco IOS software from a feature pack CD-ROM using Router Software Loader (RSL), note that the CD contains a TFTP server program for PCs using Microsoft Windows 95. Run the TFTP server program from the directory where you installed the RSL program. Remember to set the root directory to the directory where the Cisco AS5200 modem code is located. The RSL and the TFTP applications are also available on CCO in the software library in the Access Products section.

Copy the Modem Code to Your PC Hard Disk

This section describes how to copy the modem code file to your hard disk in a PC environment. The steps are similar if you are using a Macintosh or a UNIX workstation.

Step 1 Insert the modem code diskette in the diskette drive.

Step 2 Use Microsoft Windows 95 Explorer to create a folder named tftpboot at your hard disk root c:.

Step 3 Use the Microsoft Windows 95 Explorer to copy the modem code file into the c:/tftpboot folder.

Copy the Modem Code from Your PC to the Modems

If you are using a PC running Microsoft Windows 95, installing the modem code from a hard drive onto a Cisco AS5200 involves installing a TFTP application on your PC, connecting your PC and the access server, establishing a HyperTerminal session on your PC, pinging the PC and access server to make sure they are talking to each other, copying the modem code from the PC to the access server, and then mapping the modem code to the modems. See the following sections for details.

Note The steps are similar if you are using a Macintosh or a UNIX workstation.

Set up a TFTP Application on the PC

Step 1 Install the TFTP application on the PC.

Note You can use any TFTP or RCP application available from independent software vendors. A number of TFTP programs are also available as shareware from public sources on the World Wide Web. If you are using Microsoft Windows 95, you can also download a TFTP application (as zipped files) from the Cisco Software Center at the URL http://www.cisco.com/kobayashi/sw-center/.

Step 2 Launch the TFTP application by double-clicking the application icon or its filename.

Step 3 Set your TFTP server root directory:

Choose Server Root Directory from the Options menu.
Choose c:\tftpboot from the Drives and [...] list boxes.
Click OK.

If you do not select the c:\tftpboot directory as your TFTP server directory, you will not be able to perform the copy procedure. This also applies if you are using RCP on your system.

Connect Your PC and the Access Server

In this step, you connect your PC and access server.

Step 1 Use straight-through cables to connect the PC and access via a 10BaseT hub, as shown in Figure 11. Also note that both Ethernet ports must have the same baseband.

Figure 11 Connecting a PC and the Access Server

Note You can also connect your PC Ethernet port directly to the Cisco AS5200 Ethernet port using the 10BaseT crossover cable provided.

Step 2 Connect your PC COM port to the Cisco AS5200 console port, as shown in Figure 11.

Step 3 Make sure your PC and access server are powered on.

Establish a HyperTerminal Session

Use the steps in this section to establish a HyperTerminal session from your local PC to the Cisco AS5200. You will use the HyperTerminal session to talk to the access server.

Step 1 In Microsoft Windows 95 on your PC, choose Start/Programs/Accessories/HyperTerminal.

Step 2 Double-click Hypertrm.exe to display the Connection Description dialog box.

Step 3 Enter a name for your connection (for example, Console) and click OK. HyperTerminal displays the Phone number dialog box.

Step 4 Choose the COM port connecting the PC and the access server in the Connect using list box. You have options to connect directly to one of four COM ports.

Step 5 Click OK. HyperTerminal displays the COM Properties dialog box.

Step 6 Choose these options in the COM Properties dialog box:

Bits per second: 9600
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None

Step 7 Click OK. The HyperTerminal dialog box appears.

Step 8 Press Enter to display the 5200# prompt.

Note If the access server prompt does not appear, you might have selected the wrong COM port, the cable connections could be incorrect or bad, or the access server might not be powered on.

Ping the PC and Access Server

Ping the access server and the PC to make sure they are talking to each other and there are no configuration problems on your access server.

Step 1 Choose the correct Ethernet adapter connecting to the access server and note the PC IP address:

(a). Choose Start/Run to display the Run dialog box.

(b). Enter winipcfg and click OK to display the IP Configuration dialog box.

(c). Choose the PC Ethernet adapter connector used for the connection to the access server if you have more than one Ethernet adapter connector installed on your PC.

(d). Make a note of the PC IP address, and then click OK.

Note Enter the show running config command at the 5200# prompt to verify the access server has an IP address assigned. If the access server does not have an IP address, assign an IP address before continuing.

Step 2 In the HyperTerminal dialog box (see the previous section "Establish a HyperTerminal Session" for details), enter the access server enable mode (the prompt is displayed as 5200#):

 
5200> enable

 
Password: <password>

 
5200#

Step 3 Enter the ping command with your PC IP address:

 
5200# ping 131.108.1.1

The access server displays five exclamation points (!) if everything is working and it displays five dots (.) if there is a problem. In the latter case, check the cabling between the router and the PC and check the access server configuration.

Upload Modem Code to the Access Server

The procedure for copying the modem code file from your PC set up as a local TFTP server to the access server boot Flash memory is a two-step process.

Transfer the code to the access server.
Transfer the code to the modems.

These two steps are performed only once. After you copy the modem code file into boot Flash memory for the first time, you should not have to perform these steps again. Because the modem code runs from modem RAM, the Cisco IOS software automatically copies the code to each modem each time the access server power cycles.

Step 1 Check the modem code version in the access server boot Flash memory:

 
5200# show bootflash

 
Boot flash directory:

Using the Modem Code Bundled with Cisco IOS Software

Use this procedure to update modem code on the modems in your access server if you decide to use the version of modem code bundled with Cisco IOS software instead of the version already mapped to your modems.

Cisco ships the access server with the latest version of modem code installed in the boot Flash memory and mapped to the modems. If you choose to use the modem code bundled with your installed Cisco IOS software, you could be reverting to a previous version of modem code. Also note that after you map the bundled modem code (using the copy system:/ucode/filename modem or copy ios-bundled modem command) to your modems, each time you upgrade the Cisco IOS software, the new bundled modem code is automatically mapped to your modems. See "Displaying Modem Code Versions," earlier in this document, for details on displaying mode code versions mapped to modems, installed in boot Flash memory, and bundled with the Cisco IOS software on your access server.

To set the modem code mapping to the modem code version bundled with Cisco IOS software, enter the following commands.

Step 1 Enter the access server enable mode (the prompt is displayed as 5200#):

 
5200> enable

 
Password: <password>

 
5200#

Step 2 Enter the copy system:/ucode/filename modem command (or, for Cisco IOS releases earlier than 11.2A or 12.0, the copy ios-bundled modem command):

 
       5200# copy ios-bundled modem

 
       Modem Numbers (<slot/<port | group <number | all)? all

 
       Type of service [busyout/reboot] busyout

 
       Copy bundled firmware from IOS image to modems? [yes/no] yes

The copy system:/ucode/filename modem (or copy ios-bundled modem) command does not affect any existing modem code in boot Flash memory in case you later want to revert to it. If you decide to delete the code from boot Flash memory, remember that all files in boot Flash memory will be deleted, therefore save and restore any important files (for example, the Cisco IOS software image).

Note If the new Cisco IOS image contains the same modem code as the old one, no new code will be downloaded to the modems.

How to Find Command Options

This section explains how to display options for a command. To display options for a command, enter a ? at the configuration prompt or after entering part of a command followed by a space. The configuration parser displays options available with the command. For example, if you were in global configuration mode, typed the command arap, and wanted to see all the keywords and arguments for that command, you would type arap ?.

Table 5 shows examples of this function.

Table 5 How to Find Command Options

Configure 6-Port MICA Modules

Take the following steps to configure the 6-port MICA modules:

Step 1 Configure the asynchronous group interface.

Step 2 Configure the modems.

Step 3 Configure modem pooling.

Step 4 Configure the controllers.

Step 5 Configure the serial interfaces.

Step 6 Configure R2 signaling.

Configuring the Asynchronous Group Interface

Use the following table to configure the asynchronous group interface. You can assign the asynchronous interfaces to a group so that you can configure them as a group, instead of individually. Use the commands in Table 6 to configure the asynchronous group interfaces.

Because there are so many asynchronous interfaces on the access server, configuring them as a group will save you time.

Table 6 Configuring the Asynchronous Group Interface

Step	Command	Purpose

Configuring Modem Pooling

Use modem pooling to define, select, and use separate pools of modems within a single access server to enable different dial-in services for different customers. The primary application is to allocate specific modems based on called party numbers and a predetermined number of modem ports based on Dialed Number Information Service (DNIS).

If you do not configure any modem pools, all the modems are placed into a single pool. There is no restriction on the number of modem pools that you can configure. A pool can contain a minimum of one modem and a maximum equal to all the modems in the system.

This section briefly shows how to set up a minimum configuration. For detailed information on using this feature, refer to the command reference documents shipped with your access server.

Note To support modem pooling over channelized T1 lines, you need to configure the lines as described in the following table. If you are using R2 signaling over channelized E1, you do not need any special configuration options since DNIS information is always collected.

Table 9 Configuring Modem Pooling

Step	Command	Purpose
1	5200> enable Password: <password> 5200#	Enter enable mode. Enter the password. You have entered enable mode when the prompt changes to 5200#.
2	5200# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. 5200(config)#	Enter global configuration mode. You have entered global configuration mode when the prompt changes to 5200(config)#.
3	5200(config)# controller [t1 \| e1] [0 \| 1 ] 5200(config-controller)#	Enter controller configuration mode to configure your controller port. The controller ports are labeled 0 through 1 on the T1/PRI and E1/PRI cards.
4	5200(config-controller)# cas-group 1 timeslots [1-24 \| 1-31] <type>	Configure all channels for E&M, FXS, and SAS analog signaling. Enter 1-24 for T1. If E1, enter 1-31. Signaling types include e&m-fgb, e&m-fgd, e&m-immediate-start, fxs-ground-start, fxs-loop-start, sas-ground-start, and sas-loop-start. Note: To set up e&m-fgb to support modem pooling, see step 8 in this table. You must use the same type of signaling that your central office uses. For E1 using the Anadigicom converter, use cas e&m-fgb signaling.
5	5200(config-controller)# cas-group 1 timeslots 1-24 e&m-fgb mf dnis [or] 5200(config-controller)# cas-group 1 timeslots 1-24 e&m-fgb dtmf dnis	Configure e&m-fgb signaling to support modem pooling and the digital number identification service (DNIS) over channelized T1 lines. You must specify the tone type: mf or dtmf. By configuring DNIS as part of the cas-group command, the system collects DNIS digits for incoming calls, which are redirected to specific modem pools. You must be running MICA modems in the system and have at least 10% of your total modems in the default modem pool. Free modems are needed in the default pool to detect the incoming called number or DNIS before handing the call off to the appropriate modem pool. Therefore, a second modem is needed to handle each incoming call. Note: Make sure your switch provides inband address information for incoming analog calls before you enable this feature.
6	5200(config-controller)# controller t1 1 5200(config-controller)# cas-group 2 timeslots 1-24 e&m-fgb mf dnis [or] 5200(config-controller)# cas-group 2 timeslots 1-24 e&m-fgb dtmf dnis	Repeat Steps 3 to 5 to configure the second controller. In this example, note that the controller number is 1, instead of 0. And the cas-group is 2, instead of 1.
7	5200(config)# modem-pool name	Enter the name of the modem to configure for pooling.
8	5200(config-modem-pool)# pool-range number-number	Define the range of the modems in the pool. A dash is required between the two numbers.
9	5200(config-modem-pool)# called number phone # max-conn number	Specify the DNIS to be used for this modem pool. The DNIS string can have an integer x to indicate a don't care digit for that position. The max-conn option specifies the maximum number of connections allowed for this DNIS. If you do not specify a max-conn value, the default (total number of modems in the pool) is used. The max-conn values can range from one to the total number of modems in the pool.
10	5200(config-modem-pool)# Ctrl-Z 5200#	Return to enable mode.

Verify

To verify your modem pooling configuration:

Enter the show modem-pool command to view information for all modem pools. To view information for a specific modem pool, enter the show modem-pool name command.

 
5200# show modem-pool

 
modem-pool: System-def-Mpool

 
modems in pool: 60 active conn: 0

 
 0 no free modems in pool

 
modem-pool: test

 
modems in pool: 1 active conn: 0

 
 0 no free modems in pool

 
called_party_number: 1000

 
  0 max-conn exceeded, 0 no free modems in pool

Tips

If you are having trouble:

Make sure you have not configured the same called party number for multiple pools.
Make sure you have not placed modems in multiple pools.

Configuring the Controllers

Sets R2 signaling to R2 ITU Q411, the tone signal to R2 Compelled Register Signaling, and the ANI addr info provisioned option. R2 line signaling options include: r2-analog, r2-digital, and r2-pulse. Tone signaling options include dtmf (default), r2-compelled, r2-non-compelled, and r2-semi-compelled. You can also set ani (ANI addr info provisioned) for any of the above options.
8	5200(config-controller-cas)# cas-custom 1	Enter the channel number to customize.
9	5200(config-ctrl-cas)# country country name use-default	Use defaults for the specified country. Note: To view the parameters for the country (if the country defaults are the same as ITU defaults), enter write term. The default setting for all countries is ITU. See "Country Codes for R2 Signaling" later in this section for a list of supported countries.
