For detailed information, refer to the Cisco WAN Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide, which comes with every card. WIC slot 1 (WIC1) No label Supports one Cisco WIC. For detailed information, refer to the Cisco WAN Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide, which comes with every card. Use the back panel LEDs during router installation to confirm that you have correctly connected all the cables to the router. Table 1-3 Back Panel LEDs LED Label Color Description WIC0 OK Green On when a WIC is correctly inserted in the card slot. FDX Green On solid—Ethernet port is operating in full-duplex mode. Off—Ethernet port is operating in half-duplex mode. 100 Green On solid—Ethernet port is operating at 100 Mbps. Off—Ethernet port is operating at 10 Mbps. LINK Green On when the Ethernet link is up. MOD OK Green On when the VPN hardware encryption module is installed and recognized by the IOS. WIC1 OK Green On when a WIC is correctly inserted in the card slot. Front Panel LEDs Use the router front panel LEDs to determine network activity and status on the Ethernet port and on the WIC ports. The front panel LEDs are illustrated in Figure 1-3 and described in Table 1-4.

Router Memory This section describes the types of memory stored in the router and how to find out how much of each type of memory is stored in the router. For instruction on how to upgrade memory in the router, see Appendix C, “Installing and Upgrading Memory and Virtual Private Network Modules.” Cisco 1721 Router Hardware Installation Guide 78-13834-02 1-7 Chapter 1 Cisco 1721 Router Overview Router Memory Types of Memory The Cisco 1721 router has the following types of memory: • Dynamic random-access memory (DRAM)—This is the main storage memory for the router. DRAM is also called working storage. It contains the dynamic configuration information. The Cisco 1721 router stores a working copy of the Cisco IOS software, dynamic configuration information, and routing table information in DRAM. • Nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM)—This type of memory contains a backup copy of your configuration. If the power is lost or the router is turned off, this backup copy enables the router to return to operation without reconfiguration. • Flash memory—This special kind of erasable, programmable memory contains a copy of the Cisco IOS software. The Flash memory structure can store multiple copies of the Cisco IOS software. You can load a new level of the operating system in every router in your network and then, when convenient, upgrade the whole network to the new level. Amounts of Memory The Cisco 1721 router supports a maximum of 32MB Flash memory and 128MB DRAM. Use the show version command to view the amount of DRAM, NVRAM, and Flash memory stored in your router. The following example of the show version command output displays the amount of memory in this router. 1721# show version Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) C1700 Software (C1700-K9SY-M), Version 12.2(4)YA EARLY DEPLOYMENT RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) TAC Support: http://www.cisco.com/tac Copyright (c) 1986-2002 by cisco Systems, Inc.

Table 1-5 Router Box Contents • Power cord (black) • Power supply • DB-25 to DB-9 adapter • Console cable, RJ-45 to DB-9 (light blue) • Product documentation Additional Required Equipment Depending on your local network and on which Cisco WICs you install in your router, you will require other items, listed in Table 1-6, to complete your router installation. Cisco 1721 Router Hardware Installation Guide 78-13834-02 1-9 Chapter 1 Cisco 1721 Router Overview Additional Required Equipment Table 1-6 Additional Required Equipment Equipment When You Use It Ethernet hub A hub connects pieces of network equipment (including the Cisco 1721 router) to create a network. You can use a 10-, 100-, or 10/100-Mbps hub with the Cisco 1721 router. Ethernet switch A switch connects pieces of network equipment (including the Cisco 1721 router) to create a network. You can use a 10-, 100-, or 10/100-Mbps switch with the Cisco 1721 router. Phillips screwdriver Although the WICs use thumbscrews, you might need a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the WIC slot cover. Cisco WIC In order to make a WAN connection, the Cisco 1721 router must have a supported WIC installed. The router supports up to two cards. You can order the cards when you order the router, and they will be installed for you. Or, you can order the cards separately, after you receive the router, and then install them yourself. Straight-through RJ-45-to-RJ-45 This cable connects the router to the Ethernet LAN and connects the cable WICs to various WAN services, including ISDN, T1/FT1, and 56-kbps services. You will need one cable for each connection that requires this cable type. Serial cable This cable connects a serial card to serial services. You must order this cable from Cisco. For detailed information about serial cable types, refer to the Cisco WAN Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide, which comes with every card. NT-1 Some ISDN service providers require a Network Termination 1 (NT-1) device to connect an ISDN S/T port to the ISDN line. Asynchronous modem Connect a modem to the AUX port on the router when you want to configure the router from a remote location. Cisco 1721 Router Hardware Installation Guide 1-10 78-13834-02
