 ====== Cisco 1921 Gigabit router ======
+===== Background =====
 {{:networking:cisco1921.png?400 |Cisco 1921}}
 Replaces [[cisco-1841|Cisco ADSL & 1841 router]] as this is a Fast Ethernet only router, the 1921 is a similar router but with Ge0/0 and Ge0/1 interfaces and two hwic slots. I have a EHWIC-1GE-SFP-CU card as well because in the foreseeable future I may need to bring the internet in from the ISP ONT some distance away, so a utp to fibre next to the ONT would link to the WIC SFP port.
+Also, there is a USB port in addition to the serial connector, this implements a usb to serial converter internally, it shows up as ''/dev/ttyACM0''.
 {{ :networking:cisco-ehwic-sfp.png?100|Without SFP module}}
-Note this is NOT the direct fibre from the ISP, they provide a single WDM / TDM fibre to the ONT as part of the G-PON WAN network, then a Ethernet RJ45 from the ONT to a fibre converter and on to the 1941 SFP fibre in a different building.

+==== Updating Flash ====
+Having found an appropriate IOS which supports my WIC, I was able to tftp the file up to the flash: on the router, and then set the boot image to use the new image.
+If two images are present in flash, the router will boot off the first image it finds, this may not be the one you require, so set a boot image line. Once this new image is deemed stable, I will probably remove it from the router to an archive, and there will not be a requirement to set the image boot name.
