Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco 1700 Router

Installing the Cards

Follow these steps to install the card in a Cisco 1700 router:

Step 1 Make sure that the power switch is set to the STANDBY position ( ) and that the power cable is not connected to the power socket on the rear panel.

Step 2 Loosen the thumbscrews on the WAN interface card-slot cover on the rear panel, as shown in Figure 2-2.

You should be able to loosen the screws using your fingers; however, if the screws are very tight, you might need to use a Phillips screwdriver.
