Objectives

This guide explains how to install, maintain, and troubleshoot your router hardware. It also includes instructions for the router ROM monitor and configuration register.

Although this guide provides minimum software configuration information, it is not comprehensive. For detailed software configuration information, refer to the Software Configuration Guide for Cisco 2600 Series, Cisco 3600 Series, and Cisco 3700 Series Routers and to the Cisco IOS configuration guide and command reference publications. These publications are available online and on the Cisco Documentation CD-ROM. See the “Obtaining Documentation” section on page xvii for more information.

This guide describes several router models that are similar in functionality, but differ in the number of interfaces supported. Some information provided may not apply to your particular router model.
