General Description

The 800 Series Industrial Integrated Services Routers are compact, ruggedized, Cisco IOS Software

routers. They offer support for integrated 4G LTE wireless WAN (both 809 and 829 models) and wireless

LAN capabilities (829 model only). The IR829 offers an Internal WLAN Access Point which runs

on-board the router. The AP803 runs its own IOS software independently from the IR829 IOS, and

requires configuring. The AP803 works as a standalone access point or with a wireless controller.

They offer:

•Easily and rapidly deployable

•Highly available, highly secure, and reliable

•Designed for machine-to-machine (M2M) communication and for mobile vehicle communication in

harsh environmental conditions

•Designed to withstand hostile environments, tolerating a wide temperature range

These industrialized routers deliver enterprise-class features, including highly secure data, voice, and

video communications to stationary and mobile network nodes across wired and wireless links. They can

deliver enterprise-grade, wireline-like functionality.

Chapter 2 Product Overview

Hardware Overview

The routers also support Cisco IOx Software, providing an open, extensible environment for hosting

additional operating systems and applications directly at the network edge. They can enhance other

Cisco IoT System products across multiple industries, including transportation, manufacturing,

electrical utilities, and others.

For a complete listing of the routers capabilities, see the Cisco 829 Industrial Integrated Services Routers

Product Information.

Reset Button

The reset button resets the router configuration to the default configuration set by the factory. To restore

the router configuration to the default configuration set by the factory, use a standard size #1 paper clip

with wire gauge 0.033 inch or smaller and simultaneously press the reset button while applying power

to the router.

Note On the IR829, the rear cover must be removed to expose the reset switch.

Starting with release 15.6(1)T, the IR809 and IR829 have changed the way the reset button works. The

IR800 series platforms now perform in the same manner as the C819. The high level description of the

functionality works like this:

•Press and hold the reset button while powering up the router

•During warm reboot this button has no impact on performance

•Simply pressing the button at any time does not reset the router

•The router will not react to the reset button if it is pressed after power-up because the button needs

to be pushed before turning ON/inserting power – to make sure that the condition is detected.

•The push-button cannot be used to boot a IOS image from network. The golden image has to be on

flash: only

Chapter 2 Product Overview

Hardware Overview

Note For the location of the reset button see the appropriate IR809 or IR829 Hardware Installation Guide.

Perform the following steps to use this feature:

Step 1 Unplug power.

Step 2 Press the reset button on the router.

Step 3 Power up the system while holding down the reset button.

The system LED blinks four times indicating that the router has accepted the button push.

Tip The IR800 series of routers do not support password recovery. If needed, use the above procedure to

bring the router to its initial configuration, or to a previously set backup configuration.

Booting a Default IOS Image and Default Configuration

The IR800 differs from traditional IOS routers when booting a default IOS image and a default

configuration. These steps apply on a device running 15.6(1)T or later.

Method 1:

Step 1 Save a copy of your IR800 IOS image with the .default extension on flash. For example:

ios-image.default.

Step 2 Save a copy of your IR800 Hypervisor image with the .default extension on bootstrap. For example:

hypervisor-image.default.

Step 3 Save your desired default configuration file with the .cfg extension on flash. For example: config.cfg.

Step 4 Reset your IR800 router by powering it down, then press and hold the RESET button while powering up

the device.

The IR800 router will automatically boot hypervisor-image.default, then ios-image.default, and load the

config.cfg.

Step 5 Make sure there exists only one IOS image with a .default extension, only one configuration file with

the .cfg extension on the flash, and only one hypervisor image with the .default extension on bootstrap.

If you do not have a config.cfg on flash, it will boot with the Cisco default configuration (aka: empty)

startup-config.

Method 2:

Step 1 Check the “boot system” setting configuration in the default configuration file (prior to saving it to

startup-config), and verify that it points to an existing IOS image on the flash: partition.
