Configuring a WIC-1T or WIC-2T Serial WAN Interface Card

The WIC-1T or WIC-2T serial interface cards include an integrated DSU/CSU and can be configured
either for full T1/E1 service at 1.544 Mb/s or for fractional T1/E1 service. You can configure the
interfaces on your T1/E1 WAN interface card manually by entering Cisco IOS commands on the
command line. This method, called configuration mode, provides the greatest power and flexibility.
Note Before you begin, disconnect all WAN cables from the Cisco IAD to prevent it from running the
AutoInstall process. Whenever you power on the Cisco IAD, if there is a WAN connection on both ends
and the Cisco IAD does not have a valid configuration file stored in NVRAM (for instance, when you
add a new interface), the Cisco IAD tries to run AutoInstall. It can take several minutes for the Cisco
IAD to determine that AutoInstall is not connected to a remote TCP/IP host.
The Cisco IAD2435 router is a fixed-configuration router and does not support interface cards.
