Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)SEC

Configuring the Cisco EtherSwitch Service Module in the Router

This section describes how to perform the initial configuration on the router with a Cisco EtherSwitch

service module installed. This section also describes the initial configuration on the Cisco EtherSwitch

service module itself. Once an IP address has been configured on the Gigabit Ethernet interface on the

router (representing the Cisco EtherSwitch service module), you can open a console session to the

Cisco EtherSwitch service module and configure its Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for

Layer 2 or Layer 3 functionality.

Once the Cisco EtherSwitch service module interface has been configured and you boot up the service

module image, you can switch back and forth between the router and the service module.

SUMMARY STEPS

1. dir flash:

3. enable

4. show running configuration

5. configure terminal

6. interface slot/port

7. ip address ip address/subnet mask

8. no shutdown

9. end

10. service-module interface slot/port session

11. dir flash:

12. boot flash: image

13. enable

14. show ip interface brief

15. control+shift+6 x

16. disconnect

17. show power inline

DETAILED STEPS

Command or Action Purpose

Step1 dir flash:

Example:

rommon> dir flash:

Displays a list of all files and directories in router flash

memory.

Step2 boot flash: image-name

Example:

rommon> boot flash: c3825-i5-mz.050404

Boots the router image that supports the Cisco

EtherSwitch service module.

•Enter no when prompted to enter the initial

configuration dialog and then press Enter.
