J3 BAUD RST - Jumper J3 on the motherboard of the Cisco 2600 and 3600 Series Routers controls the speed reset. The factory default position of the shunt shorts pins 2-3. When the shunt is moved to pins 1-2, the console is reset to 9600 baud on the next power cycle. The following figures show the location of the console reset jumper, labeled DUART_RST or BAUD_RST.

Memory
 72 pin SIMMs, 60nS speed, Tin leads. Both non-parity and parity SIMMs supported. Just to be simple, all one type or the other...
• Cisco 3640: Supports either 32- or 64-bit operation. Router performance is approximately 20 percent slower in 32-bit mode than in 64-bit mode. To use 64-bit mode, you must install DRAM SIMMs in pairs of the same size. Generally, basic software feature sets (such as IP) use 32-bit DRAM SIMMs and robust software feature sets (such as Enterprise) use 64-bit DRAM SIMMs.

NOTE: I dimly remember a snippet that the 3640 will support parity if both SIMMs in a bank are parity. If not, the bank will be treated as non-parity {Ed}.

Follow these rules to use 64-bit operation:
• SIMMs in banks 0 and 1 must:
– Same size (in megabytes)
– Have the same access time (in nanoseconds).
• SIMMs in banks 2 and 3 must:
– Same size (in megabytes), and the same size or smaller than those in banks 0 and 1
– Have the same access time (in nanoseconds)


3640 Front View

The main difference between the console and auxiliary ports is that the auxiliary port supports hardware flow control and the console port does not. Because the auxiliary port supports flow control, it is ideally suited for use with the high-speed transmissions of a modem. Console terminals transmit at slower speeds than modems; therefore, the console port is ideally suited for use with console terminals.

System LED
Color Description
Off Router is not receiving power.
Blinking green Router is running the ROM monitor. No errors detected.
Solid green Router is operating normally. No errors detected.
Amber Router is receiving power but not functioning properly. Possible POST error or over-temperature condition detected.
Alternating amber and green Power-on self-test detected. The router is attempting to reload the ROM monitor.


RPS LED

Color RPS Status
Off Not installed.
Blinking green RPS and power supply are both on. Choose only one by:
•  Unplug power supply and use the RPS.
•  Turn off RPS and use power supply. RPS can remain connected.
Solid green Operational.
Amber
Installed but not operational


ACTIVE, READY, and PCMCIA LEDs in Cisco 3640 Routers

LED Description
ACTIVE 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Blinks to indicate network activity on the module installed in the indicated slot.
READY 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Functional module installed in indicated slot. If LED is off, slot is empty or module is not functional.
PCMCIA 0, 1 Data activity on the indicated PCMCIA slot.
