For cable-management bracket installation instructions, see page 9.
Before you begin the rack-mounting tasks, decide whether or not you want to front- or rear-mount the chassis, decide whether or not you want to attach the cable-management bracket, and determine the type of rack—four-post or two-post—that you will be using.
This section provides installation instructions for the Gigabit Ethernet SFP Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) module. It does not ship installed.
Warning Because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no fiber cable is connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures. |
Warning Class 1 laser product. |
Warning Class 1 LED product. |
Warning When performing the following procedures, wear a grounding wrist strap to avoid ESD damage to the card. Some platforms have an ESD connector for attaching the wrist strap. Do not directly touch the midplane or backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself. |
Different manufacturers have different types of latching mechanisms for Gigabit Ethernet SFP GBIC modules. There is no correlation of the type of latch to the model (such as SX or LH) or technology type (such as Gigabit Ethernet) of SFP GBIC modules. See the label for the SFP technology type and model. The SFP GBIC modules use LC-type connectors.
Step 2 Insert the SFP GBIC module into SFP port 0/0, 0/1, or 0/2. Repeat Step 2 if you are inserting a second or third SFP GBIC module.
Step 3 Do not remove the SFP GBIC module plugs until you are ready to install the cables.
This section provides information for rack-mounting the router.
Depending on how the rack-mount brackets are attached to the chassis, the chassis either protrudes from the rack or is recessed in the rack.
Step 2 Align the rack-mount bracket (1) to the side of the router. Depending on which set of rack-mount bracket holes you choose to use to attach the rack-mount bracket to the router, the chassis will either be recessed in the rack or protrude from the rack.
Step 3 Insert and tighten the two screws (2). Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 on the other side of the router.
Step 4 To install the cable-management bracket, see page 9. If you are not installing the cable-management bracket, skip to the "Four-Post Rack Installation" section or the "Two-Post Rack Installation" section for rack-mount instructions.
Depending on how the rack-mount brackets are attached to the chassis, it either protrudes from the rack or is recessed in the rack.
Step 2 Align the rack-mount bracket (1) to the side of the router and insert and tighten the screws (2). Depending on which set of holes on the rack-mount bracket that you use, the router will either be recessed in the rack or protrude from the rack.
Note To use the cable-management bracket with the Cisco 7301 router rear-mounted, you must purchase a second rack-mount kit, attach a rack-mount bracket to the left front of the chassis, and attach the cable-management bracket to it. See below for cable-management bracket installation instructions. |
Go to the "Four-Post Rack Installation" section or the "Two-Post Rack Installation" section.

Warning This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal use. |
Note The grounding lug and Phillips screws are not available from Cisco Systems. Get the grounding lug from an electrical-connector vendor and the screws from a hardware vendor. See Page 4 for the parts needed. |
Step 2 Insert the 6-AWG wire (4) into the wire receptacle on the grounding lug.
Step 3 Use the crimping tool to carefully crimp the wire receptacle around the wire; this step is required to ensure a proper mechanical connection.
Step 4 Locate the chassis ground connector (1) on the rear of your router chassis.
Step 5 Insert the two screws (3) through the holes in the grounding lug (2).
Step 6 Use the Number 2 Phillips screwdriver to carefully tighten the screws until the grounding lug is held firmly to the chassis. Do not overtighten the screws.
Step 7 Connect the opposite end of the grounding wire to the appropriate grounding point at your site to ensure an adequate chassis ground.
This section provides information about cables and ports and attaching the router to the network.
Note Both the console and auxiliary ports are asynchronous serial ports; any devices connected to these ports must be capable of asynchronous transmission. The DCE-mode console port is for connecting a console terminal and the DTE-mode auxiliary port is for connecting a modem or other DCE device (such as a CSU/DSU or other router) to your router. |
Step 2 Use an auxiliary and console port cable. Use the console cable to connect the terminal to the console port. After you establish normal router operation, you can disconnect the terminal.
Note You must supply your own interface cable between the auxiliary port and the equipment you are connecting. For console and auxiliary port pinouts, see the online Cisco 7301 Installation and Configuration Guide. |
The Cisco 7301 router has three native Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. Each interface consists of three RJ-45 media ports and three SFP GBIC optical fiber ports. The RJ-45 media ports provide 10/100/1000-Mbps connectivity while the SFP GBIC optical fiber ports provide 1000-Mbps connectivity.
Note Any three of the six Gigabit Ethernet ports may be used at the same time. |
For more information on SFP GBIC cabling specifications, see the online Cisco 7301 Installation and Configuration Guide and the Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) Module and Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) GBIC Module Installation Information and Specifications.
Shielded cables which are grounded at both ends are required to be used on the 10/100/1000 Ethernet port in order to be in compliance with requirement R4-11 in GR-1089-Core for a Central Office environment. This is not a requirement for customer premise installations.
Warning To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables. |
To identify the RJ-45 cable type, hold the two ends of the cable next to each other so you can see the colored wires inside the ends. The straight-through wire type has colored wires in the same sequence at both ends. In the crossover wire type, the first colored wire at the far left is the third colored wire at the other end. The second colored wire at the far left is the sixth colored wire at the other end.
Attach RJ-45 Ethernet cables to the appropriate connector.
Note Both native Gigabit Ethernet ports, SFP GBIC and RJ-45, are reported as Gigabit Ethernet 0/0, Gigabit Ethernet 0/1, and Gigabit Ethernet 0/2 in software. You must use the media-type command to select which media type you want to use before you configure these ports. See the "Configure the Native Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces" section. |
The Gigabit Ethernet small form-factor pluggable (SFP) GBIC module port is a 1000-Mbps optical interface in the form of an LC-type duplex port that supports IEEE 802.3z interfaces compliant with the 1000BASEX standard. Gigabit Ethernet SFP GBIC models GLC-SX-MM, GLC-LH-SM, and GLC-ZX-SM are supported in the Cisco 7301 router, as are a variety of Coarse Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (CWDM) SFPs, and the Cisco 1000BASE-T (copper) SFP with an RJ-45 port. For cabling distances, specifications, and other information, see the online Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) Module and Small Form-Factor (SFP) GBIC Module Installation Information and Specifications. Also see the Coarse Wavelength- Division Multiplexing SFP Compatability Matrix at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/modules/ps4999/
products_quick_reference_guide09186a008019f055.html, the Cisco Small Form-Factor Pluggable Gigabit Interface Converter Data Sheet, and the Cisco 1000BASE-T SFP Data Sheet.
Note All SFP GBIC ports have LC-type connectors. |
Warning Because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no fiber cable is connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures. |
Warning Class 1 laser product. |
Warning Class 1 LED product. |
Note There is no support for copper-based SFP GBICs (1000BASET) as these do not conform to the SFP GBIC standard and have not been validated by Cisco. |
Step 2 Attach the appropriate optical fiber cable directly to SFP GBIC module. You can use either simplex or duplex connectors for most devices.
Use a Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable with RJ-45 connector, if you are using a Cisco 1000BASE-T SFP.
Caution If you plan to use a GLC-LH-SM at distances greater than 984.25 feet (300 meters) over 50/125-micron or 62.5/125-micron multimode fiber, to prevent data transmission problems you must use the mode-conditioning patch cord. |
Step 2 Attach the network ends of your patch cord to the appropriate 1000BASEX equipment in your building cable plant (9).
Note Ensure that you connect the TX and RX ports on one end of the patch cord to the RX and TX ports (respectively) on the other end. Connect TX to RX and RX to TX. |
A mode-conditioning patch cord can be used with the GLC-SX-MM or GLC-LH-SM to allow reliable laser transmission between the single-mode laser source on the SFP GBIC module and a multimode optical fiber cable.
The instructions for connecting the cables for each port adapter installed in the Cisco 7301 router are in the respective online notes for each port adapter. The documents are available on the Documentation CD-ROM and on Cisco.com at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/core/cis7300/ol3531.htm. Also see the release notes for information about a specific port adapter. Release notes are found at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/index.htm.
Connect the dry relay alarm port cable connector to the alarm port. It cannot be inserted incorrectly.
The dry relay alarm port operates up to 50V AC/DC maximum and up to 80 mA maximum. Total power dissipation should not exceed 300 milliwatts. The normally closed position will have from 15 to 30 ohms resistance. The open position will be greater than 1 megohm. The alarm condition is the closed position. This port is a switch so that the cable connector can be inserted in either orientation.
If you have not already done so, run the port adapter and input/output cables through the cable-management bracket.
This section provides instructions for attaching the power cables to the router and powering on the router.
Warning This unit might have more than one power cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the two power supply cords before servicing the unit. |
Warning This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors.) |
The Cisco 7301 router comes with either an AC or DC power supply. Dual AC and dual DC power supply options are available.
Step 2 Plug the single power cable into the AC connector on the router. The cable is keyed so that it cannot be inserted incorrectly.
Step 3 If you are using the single AC power cable, insert the cable-retention clip wire into the retention-clip holes. See Figure 16.
Step 4 Slide the plastic part of the cable-retention clip into the wire holder.
Step 5 Place the AC power cable into the adjustable cable-retention clip.
Step 6 Plug a power cable into each end of the dual AC power cord that is attached to the router.
Step 7 Plug the single AC power supply cable into a single AC power source.
Step 8 Plug the dual AC power supply cables into two AC power sources.
Note After powering off the router, wait a minimum of 30 seconds before powering it on again. |
Note If required, use Sinewave Output UPS (uninterruptable power supply), not Ferro-resonant type UPS. |
The color coding of the DC-input power supply leads depends on the color coding of the DC power source at your site. Match the lead color coding for the DC-input power supply to the lead color coding used at the DC power source.
Warning This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that a Listed and Certified fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 60 VDC, 15 A is used on all currently-carrying conductors. |
Warning Before completing any of the following steps, and to prevent short-circuit or shock hazards, 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. |
Step 2 Ensure that no current is flowing through the DC power supply leads. 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.
Step 3 Using a wire stripper, strip approximately 0.55 inch (14 mm) from the -V and +V leads.
Step 4 To determine which lead to connect to which screw in the DC plug, align the DC plug (1) with the DC connector (4, 5) in the chassis as shown in the illustration above. Do not insert the plug in the connector. Notice the symbols, + A -, embossed on the connector (3). Use the symbols and the orientation of the plug to guide you when inserting the leads into the plug.
Step 5 Loosen the screws in the DC plug (1), insert the +V and -V leads, and tighten the screws.
Step 6 Insert the DC plug (1) into the DC connector (4) in the chassis. Repeat Step 5 and Step 6 if you have a dual DC power supply (5).
Step 7 Switch the circuit breaker to the ON position.
Step 8 Press the power switch to turnon the router.
Note After powering off the router, wait a minimum of 30 seconds before powering it on again. |
Check conditions prior to system startup:
Step 2 Check that port adapter configuration information is available, if needed.
Step 3 Check that a CompactFlash Disk is installed.
Step 4 Check that the console terminal is turned on.
Step 2 Listen for the fans; they should be operating as soon as power is turned on. The following table provides information about the LEDs as the system starts.
Step 3 During the boot process, observe the system LEDs. The STATUS LED comes on immediately as amber, then turns to green when the Cisco IOS is booted. Port adapter LEDs go on and off irregularly.
Step 4 Observe the initialization process. The port adapter ENABLED LEDs go on when initialization is completed and the console screen displays a script and system banner.
Before configuring the router, determine whether or not you want to use a management tool such as Cisco Security Device Manager.
Cisco Security Device Manager (SDM), version 1.1, is an optional Java-based device-management tool that allows you to configure LAN interfaces, routing, Network Address Translation (NAT), firewalls, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and other features without knowledge of the Cisco command-line interface (CLI). You can configure features such as Access Control Lists (ACLs), routing protocols, and other options using SDMs advanced mode.
Note You will need to use CLI commands to configure several features that SDM does not support. SDM does not support the following features: WAN configuration, Gigabit Ethernet (GE) interfaces, AA client, EZ VPN server, QoS,SSHv2, DHCP server configuration options, and usability enhancements. |
SDM is preinstalled on your routers Flash Disk or CompactFlash Disk when it is ordered as part of a VPN bundle or as part of a 7xxx VPN bundle. If your router did not ship with SDM preinstalled, you can download a free copy from the Software Center at Cisco.com at http://ww.cisco.com/kobayashi/sw-center/index.shtm. Because SDM uses a GUI, it requires that you access it from a PC using a supported web browser. Go to the Security Device Manager (SDM), Version 1.1 User Note for the 7xxx Routers for more information.
If you do not plan to use AutoInstall, do not connect the router's serial (WAN) cable to the channel service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU). If the WAN cable is not connected, the router boots from Flash memory and goes automatically into the setup facility.
You can run the setup facility any time you are at the enable prompt (#) by entering the setup command.
If the serial (WAN) cable is connected to the CSU/DSU and the router does not have a configuration stored in NVRAM, the router attempts to run AutoInstall at startup. The router may take several minutes to determine that AutoInstall is not set up to a remote TCP/IP host. Once the router determines that AutoInstall is not configured, it defaults to the setup facility.
When you first start the setup program, you must configure the global parameters. These parameters are used for controlling system-wide settings. Complete the following steps to enter the global parameters:
The system boots from Flash memory. The following information appears after about 30 seconds. When you see this information, you have successfully booted your router:
The first two sections of the configuration script (the banner and the installed hardware) appear only at initial system startup. On subsequent uses of the setup facility, the script begins with a System Configuration Dialog as shown in the following example.
Step 2 When asked if you want to enter the initial configuration dialog and see the current interface summary, enter yes or press Return:
Step 3 Choose which protocols to support on your interfaces. For Internet Protocol (IP)-only installations, you can accept the default values for most of the questions. A typical configuration using IP, IPX, and AppleTalk follows and continues through Step 8:
Step 4 Enter enable secret, enable, and virtual terminal passwords:
Step 5 The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the most widely supported open standard for network management. It provides a means to access and set configuration and run-time parameters of routers and communication servers. SNMP defines a set of functions that can be used to monitor and control network elements.
Enter yes or press Return to accept SNMP management; enter no to refuse it:
Step 6 For the following queries, do not enable VINES, LAT, DECnet, CLNS, bridging, XNS, or Apollo:
Step 7 For the following queries, enable routing on AppleTalk and IPX:
Step 8 In most cases you use IP routing. If you are using IP routing, you must also select an interior routing protocol. You can specify only one of two interior routing protocols to operate on your system using the setup facility: Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) or Routing Information Protocol (RIP). To configure IP routing, enter yes (the default) or press Return, and then select an interior routing protocol:
The following sample display includes a continuous listing of all configuration parameters selected in Step 3 through Step 8. Only IP, IPX, and AppleTalk are the selected protocols for this example.
Step 9 Save your settings to NVRAM. See the "Save the Running Configuration to NVRAM" section. If you do not save the configuration settings that you created in the router using configuration mode and the setup facility, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.
If you choose to have console port messages routed to the auxiliary port, use the IOS command terminal monitor on the auxiliary port on which you desire to receive console messages.
The Cisco 7301 reports both the RJ-45 and Gigabit Ethernet SFP GBIC interface ports as Gigabit Ethernet 0/0, Gigabit Ethernet 0/1, and Gigabit Ethernet 0/2. Before configuring any of the three interfaces, you must first use the media-type interface command to select the media type, either the SFP GBIC (gbic) or RJ-45 (rj45) port.
Note The Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on the Cisco 7301 do not support the Inter-Switch Link (ISL) VLAN encapsulation protocol. We recommend that customers use the IEEE 802.1Q VLAN encapsulation protocol as an alternative. Where an application requires the use of ISL, this can be provided by the Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet port adapters. |
Note The RJ-45 port is the default media. |
To be able to use a particular media port, use Cisco IOS to select the media type. This is done by using the media-type interface command:
speed { 10 | 100 | 1000 | auto }
The following speed/duplex settings are supported:
a. If you are using the no negotiation auto command, the speed and duplex should be set to a value other than auto for correct operation.
b. The only available speed in this mode is 1000 Mbps; there is no difference whether 1000 or auto is selected.
When using the SFP GBIC media, there is also the additional negotiation auto command that is used to enable the IEEE 802.1z Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) autonegotiation protocol.
Step 2 To turn the negotiation auto feature off (it is on by default), issue the interface command no negotiation auto. This is useful for connecting to other Gigabit Ethernet equipment that does not support 802.1z autonegotiation.
Note The negotiation auto feature is not supported when using the media type rj-45 and will be ignored if implementation is attempted. |
The media-type gbic mode will always default to 1000 Mbps. Both full-duplex and half-duplex operation are supported in this mode.
Cisco IOS provides two commands to provide information on your interfaces: show interface GigabitEthernet 0/X (where X is 0, 1, or 2) and show controllers GigabitEthernet 0/X (where X is 0, 1, or 2).
The output of the show interface command is useful for determining the current operating mode of the interface (speed/duplex/media-type) and the current interface statistics.
The output of the show controller command displays more information specific to the Cisco 7301 router Gigabit Ethernet interface. For example, it shows the detected link status, speed, and duplex, and also determines the current status of autonegotiation and the link partners' abilities (if it is an autonegotiation-capable interface).
The show controller command also displays the current operating state of the driver and the Ethernet controller hardware. The show controller command is a very powerful debugging aid, especially for Cisco engineers should you need help in debugging a problem. If you have any problems with your Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, you will need to provide this information to Cisco for analysis.
Should you have a problem with your interface and you wish to try and reset it, use the command:
clear interface GigabitEthernet 0/X (where X is 0, 1, or 2)
Interface counters may be cleared (reset) by using the command:
clear counters GigabitEthernet 0/X (where X is 0, 1, or 2)
Note Using this command will not reset the interface. |
Following are the steps for configuring interfaces to allow communication over a LAN or WAN. To configure the interface parameters, you need your interface network addresses and subnet mask information. Consult with your network administrator for this information.
Note Only one port adapter can be installed in the Cisco 7301 at one time. Following are three examples of three different interfaces that might be used. |
In the following example, an ATM interface in slot 1 is configured for an ATM LAN using IP. Follow these steps to configure an ATM interface:
Step 2 Determine if you are going to enable IPX on this interface; if you are, enter the unique IPX network number:
Step 3 If you are using AppleTalk on the interface, enter yes. Enter yes to configure for extended AppleTalk networks, and then enter the cable range number. Enter the zone name and any other additional zones that are associated with your local zone:
Step 4 Save your settings to NVRAM. See the "Save the Running Configuration to NVRAM" section. If you do not save the configuration settings that you created in the router using configuration mode and the setup facility, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.
Note If additional ATM interfaces are available in your system, you are prompted for their configurations as well. |
In the following example, a Fast Ethernet interface in slot 1 is configured for a Fast Ethernet LAN using IP. Follow these steps to configure Fast Ethernet interfaces:
Step 2 Determine if you are going to enable IPX on this interface; if you are, enter the unique IPX network number:
Step 3 If you are using AppleTalk on the interface, enter yes. Enter yes to configure for extended AppleTalk networks, and then enter the cable range number. Enter the zone name and any other additional zones that are associated with your local zone:
Step 4 Save your settings to NVRAM. See the "Save the Running Configuration to NVRAM" section. If you do not save the configuration settings that you created in the router using configuration mode and the setup facility, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.
Note If additional Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet interfaces are available in your system, you are prompted for their configurations as well. |
Synchronous serial interfaces are configured to allow connection to WANs through a CSU/DSU. In the following example, a synchronous serial interface in slot 1 is configured for a WAN connection using IP. Follow these steps to configure synchronous serial interfaces:
Step 2 Determine if you are going to enable IPX on this interface; if you are, enter the unique IPX network number:
Step 3 If you are using AppleTalk on the interface, enter yes. Enter yes to configure for extended AppleTalk networks, and then enter the cable range number. Enter the zone name and any other additional zones that are associated with your local zone:
Step 4 Save your settings to NVRAM. See the "Save the Running Configuration to NVRAM" section. If you do not save the configuration settings that you created in the router using configuration mode and the setup facility, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.
Note If additional synchronous serial interfaces are available in your system, you are prompted for their configurations as well. |
The following sample display lists the ATM configuration parameters:
Your router is now minimally configured and ready to use. You can use the setup command if you want to modify the parameters after the initial configuration. To perform more complex configurations, use the configure command.
For information on additional interface configuration and specific system configurations, refer to the modular configuration and modular command reference publications in the Cisco IOS software configuration documentation set that corresponds to the software release installed on your Cisco hardware.
To store the configuration or changes to your startup configuration in NVRAM, enter the copy running-config startup-config command at the Router# prompt:
Using this command saves the configuration settings that you created in the router using configuration mode and the setup facility. If you fail to do this, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.
To check the value of the settings you have entered, enter the show running-config command at the Router# prompt:
To review changes you make to the configuration, use the EXEC mode show startup-config command to display the information stored in NVRAM.
You can use the show version (or show hardware) and the show diag commands to display the system hardware, the software version, the names and sources of configuration files, and the boot images. Use the show diag command to determine what type of port adapter is installed.
For specific information on the show version, show diag, and other commands, refer to the modular configuration and modular command reference publications in the Cisco IOS software configuration documentation set that corresponds to the software release installed on your Cisco hardware.
After you have installed your Cisco 7301 router hardware and minimally configured the system, you might need to perform more complex configurations, which are beyond the scope of this publication.
For specific information on system and interface configuration, refer to the modular configuration and modular command reference publications in the Cisco IOS software configuration documentation set that corresponds to the software release installed on your Cisco hardware. These publications contain additional information on using the configure command.

Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment. |
Warning 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. |
Warning When performing the following procedures, wear a grounding wrist strap to avoid ESD damage to the card. Some platforms have an ESD connector for attaching the wrist strap. Do not directly touch the system board with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself. |
Step 2 Remove any cables from the Cisco 7301 router, including the power cables. For AC power supplies, unplug the AC power cord from the power outlet. For DC power supplies, 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.
Note After powering off the router, wait a minimum of 30 seconds before powering it on again. |
To remove the CompactFlash Disk, press the ejector button, grasp the CompactFlash Disk and pull it from the slot (2).
Insert the CompactFlash Disk into the CompactFlash Disk slot with the label with the vendor name and memory size facing up. The CompactFlash Disk protrudes when completely inserted.
Note Only the CompactFlash Disk is supported in a Cisco 7301 router. Other types of Flash Disks are not supported. |
For more information on CompactFlash Disk, see Appendix B, "Using the CompactFlash Disk," in the Cisco 7301 Installation and Configuration Guide.
The port adapter or service adapter ships installed. These instructions are provided for future use. Cabling information is included with the specific port adapter documentation.
Warning When performing the following procedures, wear a grounding wrist strap to avoid ESD damage to the card. Some platforms have an ESD connector for attaching the wrist strap. Do not directly touch the midplane or backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself. |
Note Before removing any port adapter, gracefully shut down the interface so that there is no traffic running through the port adapter when it is removed. Removing a port adapter while traffic is flowing through the ports can cause system disruption. |
Step 2 Remove the port adaper from the chassis slot. Use a Phillips screwdriver to turn the screw holding the port adapter latch. The screw should be loose enough to allow the latch to rotate to an unlocked position (1). The latch can rotate 360o.
Step 3 Grasp the handle and pull the port adapter (2) or blank port adapter from the router.
Step 4 Disconnect all cables from the port adapter.
Step 5 Locate the port adapter slot guides inside the Cisco 7301 router. They are near the top, and are recessed about one-half inch.
Caution The port adapter must slide into the slot guides under the chassis lid. Do not allow the port adapter components to come in contact with the system board or the port adapter could be damaged. |
Step 6 Carefully slide the port adapter into the port adapter slot and seat it. When installed, the port adapter input/output panel should be flush with the face of the router.
Step 7 Rotate the port adapter latch to the upright locked position and use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the latch screw. Loosen the latch screw, if needed, to be able to rotate the latch over the port adapter. Then tighten the latch screw.
Step 8 Reconnect any cables, including the port adatper and power cables, and place the cables through any cable-management bracket or power cable-retention clip.
Step 9 Power on the router by turning the power switch to the ONposition.
For specific port adapter information, see the appropriate port adapter documentation.

Step 2 Attach an ESD-preventative wrist strap between you and an unpainted router surface.
Step 3 Locate the SODIMMs.
Step 4 Press both spring latches outward to release the SODIMM. See Figure 22.
Step 5 Gently pull the SODIMM free from the SODIMM socket, taking care not to touch the pins that insert into the socket. Place the SODIMM in an anti-static bag.
Caution Forcing the SODIMM into the socket can damage the SODIMM. Use the notches on the SODIMM to align the SODIMM in the SODIMM socket before inserting it. |
Step 6 Locate the notches and align the SODIMM with the socket before inserting it.
Step 7 Gently insert the new SODIMM, taking care not to damage the pins on the edge of the SODIMM.
Step 8 Press the spring latches to lock the SODIMM in place.
Step 9 Repeat Step 1 through Step 7 if you are also replacing the second SODIMM.
Step 10 Go to the "Replace the Cover and Power On the Router" section.

To ensure that all cases are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established case priority definitions.
Priority 1 (P1)—Your network is "down" or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Priority 2 (P2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Priority 3 (P3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.
Priority 4 (P4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
