Power Up Procedure

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 the Using the ROM Monitor
document in the router’s software configuration guide. For information about the configuration register,
see the
Changing the Configuration Register Settings in the router’s software configuration guide.
Note To view the boot sequence, you must establish console connection to the Cisco router before it powers
up.
Step 1 Make sure that your PC is powered up and connected as described in the “Checklist for Power Up”
section on page 6-1.
Step 2 Move the power switch to the ON position.
The SYS LED on the front of the chassis begins blinking green.
The fans begin operating.
Startup messages appear in your Console window. When the startup messages finish, the SYS LED
appears solid green.
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. It takes a few minutes for the messages to stop.
Note Depending on your installation, some LEDs at the rear of the chassis and on installed modules might
also illuminate.
