Connecting WAAS Enhanced Network Modules
Shutting Down WAAS Enhanced Network Modules
Press the reset button on the network module faceplate for less than 2 seconds to perform a graceful
shutdown of the network module before removing power from the router or before starting an online
insertion and removal (OIR) sequence on the router. The application may take up to 2 minutes to fully
shut down.
If you press the shutdown button for more than 4 seconds, a nongraceful shutdown of the hard disk will

occur and may cause file corruption on the network module's hard disk. After a nongraceful shutdown,
the HD and SYS LEDs remain lit. Press the shutdown button for less than 2 seconds to gracefully reboot
the network module.
Connecting WAAS Enhanced Network Modules
To connect WAAS enhanced network modules to an external device, use a straight-through two-pair
Category 5e unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable, and connect the RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port on the
network module to a switch, hub, repeater, server, or other Gigabit Ethernet network device.
RJ-45 cables are not available from Cisco Systems, Inc. These cables are widely available and must be

Category 5e cables.
Establishing a Gigabit Ethernet Internal Connection
Use the Cisco High-Speed Intrachassis Module Interconnect (HIMI) feature to establish a Gigabit
Ethernet internal logical connection between two network modules, or between an onboard
small-form-factor pluggable (SFP) Gigabit Ethernet module and a network module on Cisco 3825 and
Cisco 3845 routers.
Connections can be only established as follows:
•
•
•
A module interconnection between the Gigabit Ethernet port on an SFP module and a network module
Note
slot or a network module-to-network module cross-connection is permitted at any given time, but both
types of connections cannot exist at the same time.
Connections between the onboard Ethernet ports and network module slots are not supported.
Note
