Cisco Systems 815 manual Installation Connecting the Router to Your Local Network

Chapter 2 Installation

Connecting the Router to Your Local Network

Caution Do not connect a WAN cable to the card until you have completed the installation procedure.

Note For details about specific WAN interface cards (WICs), connecting the card to the WAN line, and configuring the interface with Cisco IOS software, see the Cisco Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide.

Warning The ports labeled 10/100 ETHERNET and CONSOLE are safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Because BRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage, avoid connecting the SELV circuits to the telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits. (To see translated versions of this warning, refer to the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for Cisco 800 Series and SOHO Series Routers document that came with the router.)

Follow these steps to connect the router to the local network:

Step 1 Connect one end of the cable to the yellow Ethernet port (labeled

10/100 ETHERNET) on the back panel of the router, as shown in Figure 2-1.
