You can install the chassis in a rack or on a desktop. For a desktop installation, proceed to the next section, "Prepare the Chassis for Desktop Use."
Step 1 Attach the brackets using one of the three methods shown above.
Step 2 Install the chassis in a rack.
Attach the rubber feet before installing the chassis on a desktop.
Step 1 Locate the rubber feet on the black adhesive strip that shipped with the chassis.
Step 2 Place the access server upside-down on a flat, smooth surface.
Step 3 Peel off the rubber feet from the black adhesive strip and place them adhesive-side down on the dotted circles at each corner of the chassis bottom.
Step 4 Place the access server right-side up on a flat, smooth, secure surface.
 | Caution Do no place anything that weighs more than 10 lb (4.5 kg) on top of the access server. Excessive weight placed on top of the chassis could damage it. |
You can connect the access server to a 10BaseT or 100BaseT Ethernet network.
You will need an Ethernet cable to connect the access server to an Ethernet hub. This cable is not included.
Step 1 Connect an Ethernet cable to the 10BaseT port or the 10/100BaseT port, depending on whether your network is 10BaseT or 100BaseT.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to an Ethernet hub (not included).
You can connect the access server to a T1 or E1/PRI card for WAN access. If you have a E1/PRI card, go to the next procedure.
You need four straight-through RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cables to connect the T1/PRI card to a WAN. These cables are not included.
Step 1 Connect one end of the straight-through RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cable to the T1 port labeled 0 on the rear panel of the access server.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the cable to the incoming T1 line (RJ-45 jack).
Step 3 Repeats Steps 1 and 2 to connect other cables to the remaining ports.
You will need four E1 cables to connect the E1/PRI card to a WAN. The E1 cables and E1 networks terminating units are not included.
Step 1 Connect the single-connector end of the E1 cable to the port labeled PORT 4 on the rear panel of the access server.
Step 2 Connect the Rx end of the cable to the Receive port of an E1 network's terminating unit.
Step 3 Connect the Tx end of the cable to the Transmit port of the E1 networks terminating unit.
Step 4 Repeats steps 1 through 3 to connect other cables to the remaining ports.
Use a serial 12-in-1 cable (DTE if connecting to a DSU or DCE if connecting to a CSU) to connect one of the four synchronous serial ports on the E1 or T1 PRI cards (with serial support) to a modem or a CSU or DSU. The CSU or DSU provides access to a WAN.
Step 1 Connect the serial 12-in-1 cable connector on the serial cable to the serial port on the rear panel of the access server.
Step 2 Connect EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-449, EIA/TIA-530A, EIA-530, V.35, or X.21 connector to the CSU or DSU.
To configure the access server from a locally-connected PC or terminal, you will need an RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable and a terminal adapter (RJ-45-to-DB-9 or RJ-45-to-DB-25). The cable and adapter are included.
Step 1 Connect one of the adapters, labeled TERMINAL, to the communications port (usually labeled COM) on your PC or terminal. (This communications port is also known as a console port.)
Step 2 Connect one end of the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable to the adapter.
Step 3 Connect the other end of the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable to the port labeled CONSOLE on the rear panel of the access server.
Step 4 Configure your PC terminal emulation software or terminal for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
To configure the access server from a remote location, you will need an RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable and a modem adapter (RJ-45-to-DB-25) for connecting a modem.
If you will not be using a modem to configure the access server remotely, skip this procedure and go to the next page.
Step 1 Connect the adapter labeled MODEM to your modem.
Step 2 Connect the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable to the adapter.
Step 3 Connect the other end of the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable to the port labeled AUX on the rear panel of the access server.
Step 1 Connect one end of the power cord to the power connector on the rear panel of the access server.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the power cord to the power outlet.
Step 3 Power ON the access server. Messages will begin to appear on your console screen.
| Caution After you start the access server, it might take several minutes for the startup messages to stop. Do not press any keys until you see the following message:While you are waiting for this message to appear, proceed to Section 3 . |
Use any of the following options for configuring your universal access server:
The option you select depends on how you want to configure your universal access server. Use the information on this page to help you decide which option to select.
Cisco Fast Step is a setup utility with a graphical user interface. It provides easy, step-by-step instructions for setting up some of the most commonly used options available on the Cisco AS5300 universal access server. Use Cisco Fast Step to configure your access server with the following options:
For all other configurations, use the Cisco IOS Release setup script (see the section, "Cisco IOS Release Setup Script," later in this section) or refer to the Cisco AS5300 Universal Access Server Software Configuration Guide for detailed instructions on using the command line interface to configure your Cisco AS5300 universal access server.
1. Insert the Cisco Fast Step CD-ROM (attached to the inside back cover of this guide) into the CD-ROM drive of the local PC you connected in Section 2 .
2. The Fast Step install program starts Setup.exe automatically. If it does not, use the following steps to start the Fast Step program:
(a) Double-click the My Computer icon on your computer desktop.
(b) Double-click the CD icon.
(c) Double-click the Setup.exe icon.
The install program prompts you for the information it needs to install Cisco Fast Step, then copies the software to your hard drive.
After installation, the Cisco Fast Step setup program starts automatically. Follow the onscreen instructions to guide you through configuring and testing the universal access server.
 | TimeSaver Appendix A is provided to help you gather the appropriate information before you begin to configure the access server using the setup script. |
This section shows how to start the Cisco IOS Release setup script in the System Configuration dialog to complete a basic configuration for the access server. For detailed steps for the setup script, refer to the Cisco AS5300 Universal Access Server Software Configuration Guide.
setup at the enable mode prompt (5300#).
Step 1 Power ON the access server. The power switch is on the rear panel of the access server, at the lower right corner, near the power cord. Messages will begin to appear in your terminal emulation program window.
| Caution Do not press any keys on the keyboard until the messages stop. Any keys pressed during this time are interpreted as the first command typed when the messages stop, which might cause the access server to power off and start over. It will take a few minutes for the messages to stop. |
The messages look similar to the following:

Step 2 When the following prompt appears, enter yes to continue:
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes]: yes At any point you may enter a question mark '?' for help. Use ctrl-c to abort configuration dialog at any prompt. Default settings are in square brackets '[]'.
When you are done selecting options and saving the script, the access server displays the 5300> prompt, which indicates that you are at the command-line interface (CLI) and you have just completed the basic access server configuration. However, this is not a complete configuration. At this point you have two options:
5300> enable Password: <password> 5300# setup
