It is configured for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and flow control is set to "none." • You have selected a suitable PC COM port in the terminal emulation program. • You have selected passwords for access control. • You have determined the IP addresses for the Ethernet and serial interfaces. Powering Up the Cisco Router To power up your Cisco router, follow this procedure to verify the router has performed the initialization and self-test. When the procedure is finished, the router is ready to configure. If you encounter problems while powering on the router, see the routers troubleshooting page on Cisco.com. For information about the ROM monitor and the bootstrap program, see Using the ROM Monitor. For information about the configuration register, see Changing the Configuration Register Settings. Note To view the boot sequence, you must establish console connection to the Cisco router before it powers up.

Caution Do not press any keys on the keyboard until the messages stop and the SYS LED is solid green. Any keys pressed during this time are interpreted as the first command typed when the messages stop, which might cause the router to power off and start over.
