WS-X3011 card. Cards with software release 11.0(11) can support the WS-X3011 card; however, the card will be identified as a Cisco 2503 unit instead of as a WS-X3011card. For best results, upgrade to release 11.28 if your card is running a previous release. Your switch must be running software release 2.0(1) or higher.
Wear safety glasses if you are working under any conditions that might be hazardous to your eyes. • Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe. 2 Router Card (WS-X3011) Configuration Note...
Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds. • If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows: — Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.

Terminal Connection For a terminal connection, use a null-modem cable or a straight cable (EIA-232) with a null modem adapter attached. Refer to the Catalyst 3100 Configuration and Installation Guide for the EIA-232 cable description. 4 Router Card (WS-X3011) Configuration Note...
A device that communicates over a synchronous serial interface is either a DTE or DCE device. A DCE device provides a clock signal that paces the communications between the device and the router card. A DTE device does not provide a clock signal. DTE devices usually connect to DCE Router Card (WS-X3011) Configuration Note...

The Cisco IOS software provides access to several different command modes. Each command mode provides a different group of related commands. For security purposes, the Cisco IOS software provides two levels of access to commands: user and privileged. The unprivileged user mode is called user EXEC mode. The privileged mode is called privileged EXEC mode and requires a password.
