CISCO 1605R ROUTER

1            NOTE: Throughout this FECO a SPACE in a string is shown by a Ñ .

               All other spaces are purely cosmetic

2            This is to introduce the Cisco 1605R ISDN / Kilostream Router.
              The Cisco Routers can be used to replace the 3Com Office Connect 531’s.

              The 1605 is shown below.

3            The 1605 is modular. The rear diagram shows the slot for the WAN Module on the right, with the
              thin slot beneath it for the Software Flash Card. The Console connection and LAN connectors are
              also shown. The power input from the external PSU is shown bottom right, with the cord retaining clip.

4            For General Information refer to FECO COMMS#58

5            SPECIFICATION
               The standard 1605 comes with two LAN interfaces, a 10BaseT and the other is a 10BaseT/AUI.

               The 1605 R routers have a "run from RAM" architecture; the "R" suffix designates run from
               "RAM". The Cisco IOS software image is stored in Flash memory (in compressed form), but is
               loaded into RAM before being executed by the router.

               The Run-from-RAM models offer the following benefits:

               Greater Performance – The Cisco 1605 R models deliver greater performance for memory
               intensive applications such as encryption and compression.

               Easier Upgradability – The Cisco 1605 R routers permit software upgrades over any interface
               while the router is running.

               Lower Cost – Because the 1605 R models store the software in compressed form in Flash
               memory, less flash memory is required to run advanced feature sets (such as Cisco 1600 series
               IOS IP Plus).

               Cisco 1600 series routers offer small businesses and small branch offices a complete set of
               internetworking software features. Cisco IOS software differentiates the Cisco 1600 series from
               the competition with:

               Multiprotocol routing (IP, IPX, AppleTalk), IBM/SNA, and transparent bridging over ISDN,
               asynchronous serial, and synchronous serial such as leased lines, Frame Relay, SMDS,
               Switched 56, X.25, and X.25 over D.

               Network Address Translation (NAT), which eliminates the need to re-address all hosts with existing
               private network addresses and hides internal addresses from public view.

               Easy IP – a combination of NAT, Point-to-Point Protocol/Internet Control Protocol.

               (PPP/IPCP) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server – which enables the router
               to dynamically negotiate its own IP address and dynamically allocate local IP addresses to the
               remote LAN hosts, simplifies deployment, and minimizes Internet access costs.

               End-to-End QoS features such as Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP), IP Multicast, WFQ,
               and AppleTalk Simple Multicast Routing Protocol (SMRP), which support multimedia applications
               such as desktop video conferencing, distance learning, and voice/data integration.

               WAN optimisation features such as dial-on-demand routing (DDR), bandwidth-on-demand (BOD),
               and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)-on demand circuit, Snapshot routing, compression, filtering,
               and spoofing to reduce WAN costs.

               SIZE approx 11.5 x 2.5 x 9 inches 28.5 x 6 x 22 cm with external PSU.

6            OPTIONS
               There are six different WAN Interface modules and twelve different Software Features Packs.
               Most WAN Interface modules are compatible with other Cisco Models.

              NOTE The two WAN Interface Modules are common to other Cisco Models like the
              1700, 2600 and 3600 Series Models.

8            BASIC INSTALLATION

8.1        WARNING

              Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN interface card ports regardless of whether power
              to the router is OFF or ON. To avoid electric shock, use caution when working near WAN ports.
              When detaching cables, detach the end away from the router first.

8.2        FLASH PC CARD
              Insert the Flash PC Card into the slot labelled FLASH PC CARD connector edge first, writing
              uppermost. When correctly seated it should just protrude.

8.3        LAN CONNECTION
             Connect the router to you local Ethernet network(s). The router can be connected to one or two
             local networks. It cannot be connected to three.

8.4        WAN CONNECTION
             Install a WAN interface card. The router cannot make any connections outside the local network
             unless a WAN interface card is installed and connected. Without a WAN interface card installed,
             the router does function correctly between two local networks. Look for a WAN interface card in the
             slot on the right-rear of the router, just above the slot labelled FLASH PC CARD. (There is no WAN
             interface card installed if there is a metal plate over the slot.) If the card is already installed, connect
             it to your WAN line according to the instructions that came with the card. To install a card, follow the
             instructions below.

             Confirm that the power is OFF.

             Remove the thumbscrews that hold the slot cover in place, and then remove the slot cover.

             Hold the card by the edges and line it up with the guide on the card slot.

             Insert the card into the slot and push in until it is firmly seated in the connector and front panel is flush
             with the router rear panel.

             Tighten the screws that are in the card.

             Connect the card port to the WAN line according to the instructions that came with the card.

8.5        POWER CONNECTION

             Connect the power supply. After you connect the power, you can confirm proper installation by
             checking that certain LEDs are on.

             Connect the power supply cord to the power socket on the rear panel, use the cord retaining clip to
             hold/secure it.

             Connect to power supply to a power outlet and switch on.

             Confirm that the router has power by checking that the SYSTEM PWR LED on the front panel is on.

8.6        LED                     Location                     What to Look For

              SYSTEM             Front                            On means that power is being supplied to the router.
              PWR

              System OK         Front                            On means that the router software is loaded and functional.
                                                                            Blinking means that the software is being loaded into router
                                                                            memory.

              OK                      Rear, to the left of          On means that the Flash PC card is correctly installed. If
                                         the Flash PC card         the LED is off, refer to the hardware installation guide that
                                         slot                              came with the router for instructions on how to re-install the card.

              LNK                     Rear, one next to          On means that the router is connected to a local Ethernet
                                         each 10BaseT               network through this port. If you connected the router to a
                                         port                              local network through the AUI port, then the LNK LED next
                                                                             to the ETHERNET Æ 10BASET should be off.

              ETHÆ ACT            Front                            Blinking means that there is network traffic on the local
                                                                              Ethernet network that is connected to the ETHERNET Æ
                                                                              10BASET port or the ETHERNET Æ AUI port (only one of
                                                                              these two ports should be connected).

              ETH1 ACT             Front                             Blinking means that there is network traffic on the local
                                                                               Ethernet network that is connected to the ETHERNET 1
                                                                               10BASET port.

12.16  The command telnet Ñ 128.2.60.2 from the laptop should now access the 4400 computer. .
            Providing that the Gateway of 128.2.1.2 has been set-up on the laptop, and on the system a route
            to the laptop network has been established as follows:

            usr/sbin/route Ñ add Ñ -net Ñ 128.2.1.0 Ñ 128.2.60.3

12.17  You should now be able to ping all ip addresses in this working example.
            You should also be able to telnet all Cisco router IP addresses in this working example
           [ Note you cannot telnet the subnet addresses ] .

13       SAMPLE SET-UP ISDN

13.1    Working example

            A laptop with an Ethernet card is linked to a remote 4400 system via two Cisco 1605R routers over
            a 64k bandwidth ISDN line. See Network Diagram ISDN for details.

            For this example Left is the remote end and Right is the main host end.

13.2    Prerequisites:

            2 Cisco 1605R routers with associated power supplies including 13Amp mains plugs fitted.

            2 Blue Console cables with both 9pin and 25pin to RJ45 adapters [ supplied with Routers ]

            1 H Type cable for use with a VDU.

            1 VDU or PC to use as a console to set-up the routers.

            2 ISDN BRI cards for the Routers.

            2 RJ45 Patch cables to link Routers to ISDN line or Simulator.

            1 working ISDN line or Simulator.

            1 Ethernet crossover cable [MIDI X] to link between Laptop and Left Router Ethernet 0 port.

            1 Ethernet crossover cable [MIDI X] to link between Host and Right Router Ethernet 0 port.

            Note     A short RJ45 crossover cable [MIDI X] is supplied with the Router.

                        EDP cable type JP is an RJ45 crossover cable [MIDI X].

                        EDP cable type JF is an RJ45 straight cable [MIDI].

14        LEFT ROUTER SETUP – ISDN

14.1    Connect one end of the Blue Console cable to the Cisco 1605R Router Console port at the rear of
            the Router in the middle. Connect the other end of the Blue Console cable to the PC or VDU.

            For a PC with a 9 pin male connector on Com1 port use the 9 pin female to RJ45 adapter.

            [ See additional notes on HyperTerminal emulation program for PC use. ]

14.2    For a Vdu with a 25 pin female connector use the 25 pin female to RJ45 adapter plus an H type
            cable to gender change.

            Ensure settings of 9600, 8, N with VT100 emulation are used for Console access.

14.3    Power on the router and observe the leds and Console messages for two mins whilst the router loads
            it’s software. The following lights should be lit on the front panel:

            SYSTEM PWR          Green          The router is turned on, and DC power is being supplied.

            SYSTEM OK             Green          Blinks during the boot cycle Steady when successfully booted.

            ETH0 ACT                 Green          Random flashes as data is being sent via the first Ethernet LAN.

            WIC CD/B1                Green          lit on an active line i.e. carrier detect.

14.4    On the rear panel the following lights should be lit:

            LNK at 10BASE T Ethernet0        If an active network cable is fitted.

            OK WIC                                      If the WAN Interface Card is correctly installed.

            OK FLASH PC CARD                  If the Flash Pc Card is correctly installed.

            OK on ISDN WAN CARD             If a connection is made to live ISDN

            B1 on ISDN WAN CARD              If an active call is connected.

            Access the console by pressing the return key.

            If the Router has not been configured before the following Messages will appear:

            --- System Configuration Dialog ---

            Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog [ yes/no]: yes

            Display interface summary press <CR> key

            Configuring global parameters:

            Enter host name [Router]: type in the name of the Router i.e. Left

14.5    The enable secret is a password used to protect access to privileged EXEC and configuration modes.

            This password, after entered becomes encrypted in the configuration.

            Enter enable secret:

            Note The EDP preferred enable secret password is currently qq

            Note The password is case sensitive.

            Enter enable password :

            Note The EDP preferred enable password is currently q

            Configure eth1          no

            Now take option 2 save this configuration to nvram and exit

            Press <CR> key and login to the router.

14.7    Note default settings appear in square brackets [ ] .

            Use Ctrl + C to abort the configuration at any time.

14.8    The Prompt should now change to Left>

            If the Router has been configured before the following Messages will appear:

            Router con0 is now available

            Press RETURN to get started.

14.9    Set the Left Router configuration first from the Left> prompt.

            Type in en to access the EXEC level

            Type in the password [qq] when prompted

            Prompt changes to Left# [ in some character sets a British pound sign £ will be shown i.e. Left£ ]

            Show commands work at this level. The command show Ñ interfaces will display interfaces settings.

            This command could be shortened to sh Ñ int .

            The command sh Ñ running displays the current configuration whereas sh Ñ startup displays the
            configuration used during bootup. Therefore at the end of configuring a Router, the amended
            configuration needs to be copied from running to startup [ see details later ].

            Use the <CR> key to move down a line at a time or the Spacebar to move down a page at a time.

            The up and down arrow keys can be used to access previous commands from the stack.

            A question mark ? shows the commands present at the current level.

            A command followed by a space then ? shows the command options available.

            Type in username Ñ Right Ñ password Ñ Right

            Type in int Ñ eth0 this selects the Ethernet0 interface for configuration.

            The prompt changes to Left(config-if)#

            Before changing an interface parameter the interface must be shutdown.

            Type in shutdown or shut this changes the Ethernet0 interface state from up to admin .

14.11  Note a Cisco 1605R router by default has two Ethernet interfaces eth0 and eth1.

            In this ISDN working example only eth0 is used so eth1 should remain in admin i.e. shutdown.

14.12  Set the IP address and subnet mask for eth0 as follows:

            Type in ip Ñ address Ñ xxx.yyy.zzz.www Ñ aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd

            For the working example type in ip Ñ address Ñ 128.2.1.2 Ñ 255.255.255.0

            Where xxx.yyy.zzz.www is the desired IP address.

            Where aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd is the desired subnet mask.

            Note 255.255.255.0 is also known as a 24bit subnet mask often shown as /24

            Type in no Ñ shut this changes the Ethernet0 interface state from admin to up.

            Type in exit The prompt changes to Left(config)#

14.13  Type in int Ñ bri0 this selects the ISDN BRI interface for configuration.

            The link protocol needs to be set

            Type in encapsulation Ñ ppp This sets the protocol to ppp .

            Type in dialer Ñ idle-timeout Ñ 10 The idle timeout is now set to 10 seconds to cut phone costs.

            Type in dialer Ñ string Ñ 1111

            Sets the ISDN telephone number required to reach the other router, 1111.

            Type in dialer Ñ hold-queue Ñ 10 Improves access response

            Type in dialer-group Ñ 1 Assigns the dialer

            Type in ppp Ñ authentication Ñ pap Enables PAP identification (security )

            Type in ppp Ñ pap Ñ sent-username Ñ Left Ñ password Ñ 0 Ñ Left

            Type in no Ñ shut this changes the bri0 interface state from admin to up.

            Type in exit at the prompt Left(config-if)#

            This moves back up one level and the prompt changes to Left(config)#

14.14  Now the IP routes or routing information needs to be added to the Cisco 1605R router.

             Type in ip Ñ routing Enables IP routing

            There must be an ip route for each subnet plus the gateway of last resort.

            For the working example type in the following ip routes :

            Type in ip Ñ route Ñ 0.0.0.0 Ñ 0.0.0.0 Ñ bri0
                                                                                        This describes the gateway of last resort.

            Type in no Ñ dialer-list Ñ 1 This removes the default dialer list

            Type in dialer-list Ñ 1 Ñ protocol Ñ ip Ñ permit
                                                                                        This adds a new list for IP only.

            Type in line Ñ con Ñ 0              Configures console port

            Prompt changes to Left(config-line)#

            Type in password Ñ q              Sets console port password to q

            Type in login                               Enables console login

            Type in exit at the prompt Left(config-line)#

            Type in exit at the prompt Left(config)#

            This moves back up one level and the prompt changes to Left#

14.15  The command sh Ñ int will display interfaces settings - confirm the IP addresses are correct.

            The command sh Ñ running will display all the router settings - confirm the IP routes etc are correct.

            Now type in copy Ñ running Ñ startup and hit enter again at the Destination filename
            [startup-config-]?

            [OK]

            Right#

15.14  The settings have now been saved and the configuration of Right router is complete.

16        Final Tasks

16.1     The link should be able to be established with a temporary data path from Laptop to 4400 computer.

            The command telnet Ñ 128.2.60.2 from the laptop should now access the 4400 computer. Providing
            that the Gateway of 128.2.1.2 has been set-up on the laptop, and on the system a route to the laptop
            network has been established as follows:

            usr/sbin/route Ñ add Ñ -net Ñ 128.2.1.0 Ñ 128.2.60.3

16.2    When using numbered IP as in the example you will also need a route to allow access to the router
            Wan network.

            usr/sbin/route Ñ add Ñ -net Ñ 128.2.6.0 Ñ 128.2.60.3

            These will both be required in the /etc/inet/gateways.eth file for access after a reboot.

16.3    You should now be able to ping all IP addresses in the working example .

            You should also be able to telnet all Cisco router IP addresses in the working example [ Note you
            cannot telnet the subnet addresses ] .
