This section describes the considerations for each type of network connection available for a
Cisco 4000 series router.
Ethernet Connections
The following sections describe the two types of Ethernet network processor modules: single-port
and dual-port modules.

and Cisco 4700.
Single-Port Ethernet Module Connections
Each single-port Ethernet network processor module has an Ethernet AUI connector and a 10BaseT
connector. (See Figure 2-5.) (Only one connector on the module can be used at a time.) Use either
an IEEE 802.3 AUI or a 10BaseT cable to make the connection.
Selecting the Media Type
The media type connection, AUI or 10BaseT, is selected by the media command. Enter the media
command in the router's configuration file to configure your selection of AUI or 10BaseT on the
desired interface. The syntax of the media command follows:
The following is an example of configuring the Ethernet 0 interface for a media type AUI
connection:
Refer to the router software publications for more information on the media command.
