Warning The ports labeled "Ethernet," "10BaseT," "Token Ring," "Console," and "AUX" are safety extra-low voltage (SELV)
circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Because the BRI circuits are treated like
telephone-network voltage, avoid connecting the SELV circuit to the telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits.

Before connecting a terminal to the console port, configure the terminal to match the router console port as follows:
Step 1
9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bits (9600 8N1).
Step 2 After you establish normal router operation, you can disconnect the terminal.
The Cisco 7201 router uses RJ-45 ports for both the auxiliary port and the console port.
You must supply your own interface cable between the auxiliary port and the equipment you are connecting. For
