Keep it in an accessible place near the router, where anyone who performs these actions has access to it. Site log entries might include the following information: • Installation progress-Make a copy of the installation checklist and insert it into the site log. Make an entry as each procedure is completed. • Upgrade and maintenance procedures-Use the site log as a record of ongoing router maintenance and expansion history, such as the following events: - Installation of network modules - Removal or replacement of network modules - Other upgrades - Configuration changes - Maintenance schedules and requirements - Maintenance procedures performed - Intermittent problems - Comments and notes Inspecting the Router Do not unpack the router until you are ready to install it. If the final installation site will not be ready for some time, keep the router in its shipping container to prevent accidental damage. The router, cables, publications, and any optional equipment you ordered may be shipped in more than one container. When you unpack the containers, check the packing list to ensure that you received all the following items: • Router • 6-ft (1.8-m) AC power cord (for AC-powered routers) • Ethernet cable for Gigabit Ethernet interface • One pair of rack-mount brackets for a 19-inch rack, with screws to attach the brackets to the router • NEBS-compliant two-hole barrel grounding lug and two mounting screws • Cable management bracket (Cisco 3825 router only) • RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable for console port • RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter cable for auxiliary port • Any optional equipment that you ordered • Cisco product registration card and Cisco.com card Inspect all items for shipping damage. If anything appears to be damaged, or if you encounter problems installing or configuring your router, contact customer service.

router, where anyone who performs these actions has access to it. Site log entries might include the
following information:
Installation progress—Make a copy of the installation checklist and insert it into the site log. Make
an entry as each procedure is completed.
Upgrade and maintenance procedures—Use the site log as a record of ongoing router maintenance
and expansion history, such as the following events:
Installation of network modules
Removal or replacement of network modules
Other upgrades
Configuration changes
Maintenance schedules and requirements
Maintenance procedures performed
Intermittent problems
Comments and notes
Inspecting the Router
Do not unpack the router until you are ready to install it. If the final installation site will not be ready
for some time, keep the router in its shipping container to prevent accidental damage.
The router, cables, publications, and any optional equipment you ordered may be shipped in more than
one container. When you unpack the containers, check the packing list to ensure that you received all
the following items:
Router
6-ft (1.8-m) AC power cord (for AC-powered routers)
Ethernet cable for Gigabit Ethernet interface
One pair of rack-mount brackets for a 19-inch rack, with screws to attach the brackets to the router

RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable for console port
RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter cable for auxiliary port
Any optional equipment that you ordered
Cisco product registration card and Cisco.com card
Inspect all items for shipping damage. If anything appears to be damaged, or if you encounter problems
installing or configuring your router, contact customer service. For warranty information, see the
“Cisco
90-Day Limited Hardware Warranty Terms” section on page 10
