Figure 1 Installing the Router
Caution Always connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet ports on the router. Accidentally connecting the cable to the
wrong port can damage your router.
Step 3 Connect one end of a second Ethernet cable to the 10BT ETHERNET port on the router (the port on the left).
Step 4 Connect the other end to your Internet modem.
Note The 10BT ETHERNET port does not perform autosensing for full-/half-duplex operation, and the default setting is for
half-duplex. To enable full-duplex mode on the 10BT ETHERNET port, you will need to use the Cisco IOS software
to reconfigure the port.
5 Configure the Router Using Cisco Router and Security Device Manager
Cisco Router and Security Device Manager (SDM) is a web-based configuration tool that allows you to configure LAN
and WAN interfaces, routing, Network Address Translation (NAT), firewalls, VPNs, and other features on your router.
If SDM is installed on your router, configure the router by following the instructions in the Cisco Router and Security
Device Manager (SDM) Quick Start Guide. If this document was not shipped with your router, you can obtain SDM and
instructions for installing it on your router from the following
location:
http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/sdm
To obtain the SDM release notes, and other SDM documentation, go to http://www.cisco.com/go/sdm and click the Technical
Documentation link.
