This configuration guide is designed for system administrators who have some experience downloading
software from the World Wide Web and configuring cable modem/router systems. This guide is also
directed to the network administrators who are responsible for administering the customer’s local area
network.
All users should have some experience with configuring Cisco routers and using the Cisco IOS
command-line interface (CLI). A basic familiarity with DOCSIS 1.0, DOCSIS 1.0+ quality of service
(QoS) principles, H.323, and SGCP/MGCP is helpful.
Cable system installers and technicians should be familiar with their cable plant’s base operating
parameters and subscriber service offerings. Cable system support engineers and administrators should
be acquainted with cable data networks and WAN communications protocols. Network administrators
should be familiar with the principles of IP routing and subnetting; some of the advanced configurations
also require a thorough understanding of access lists and how to use them.
Note This document contains instructions to install or configure the Cisco uBR924 cable access router using
procedures that only qualified personnel should perform. This document is not intended for subscribers.
