Preparing for Installation

Before installing the router and connecting devices to it, follow these steps:
Step 1 Obtain a broadband or Ethernet connection from your service provider.
Step 2 Remove the cables and product documentation from the plastic bag. Remove the router power adapter
and the black power cord from the accessory kit.
Step 3 If you ordered a wireless router, remove the antenna from the box.
Step 4 Gather the Ethernet devices to be connected to the router: servers, workstations, or PCs. Make sure that
there is a network interface card (NIC) in each device for connecting to the Ethernet ports.
Step 5 If you plan to configure the software by using Cisco IOS commands and the console port, provide an
ASCII terminal or a PC that is running terminal emulation software to connect to the console port.
If you plan to connect a modem, provide the modem and modem cable.
Step 6
If you plan to use the cable-lock feature, provide a Kensington or equivalent locking cable.
