Step 2 Connect the network cable from the Ethernet 1/1 interface to your wide area network (WAN) modem. Your
WAN modem is your branch's connection to the internet and will be your firewall's route to the internet as
well.
Step 3 Cable your inside end points to the switch ports, Ethernet1/2 through 1/8.
Ethernet 1/7 and 1/8 are PoE+ ports.
Step 4 (Optional) Connect the management computer to the console port.
At the branch office, the console connection is not required for everyday use; however, it may be required
for troubleshooting purposes.
