Quick Start Steps
Support Equipment
To configure the DuraMAR 5915-2X, you need the following support equipment:
A computer with at least one RS-232 serial port and a terminal emulator application.
Note: The ROU and SWI portions each have a dedicated console port. Each of the two internal
devices (5915 and ESS2020) must be configured separately via its unique port.
A DC Power Supply with an output of between 12v and 36v (ideally 28v)
Connections
1. Connect a power cable to port J1 on the DuraMAR 5915-2X (use CBL-2417-01 from the starter cable
set, or an equivalent MIL-DTL-38999 power cable).
2. Connect the other end of the power cable to the unpowered DC power source.
Caution! Make sure that the DC power source is set to provide 12 to 36VDC (28V nominal).
3. Connect a serial cable to the serial port on the host PC and to
J3 (for ROU configuration) or J6/J9 (for SWI configuration).
Note: To use the J9 console, remove the cover plate over connector J9. Save the cover and
screws; J9 should be covered when not in use. Connect CBL-1536-01 between J9 and the host
PC serial port.
Caution! Do not connect to both SWI console ports at the same time.
J6 Console and J9 Console are the same port. Connecting to both ports will result in an electrical
conflict on both connections.
4. Open a terminal emulator on the host PC.
5. In the PC terminal emulation software, configure the serial port for 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits,
no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
6. Apply power.
7. Use the command line interface (CLI) to enter commands to configure the equipment. See the
software configuration guide and command reference from Cisco for more information (refer to the
next section on System Configuration).
8. Connect Ethernet devices as required to J2, J6, J7 and/or J8.
Note: To prevent the user from interchanging cables for J3, J6 and J7, these connectors and
consequently, their mating cables, are keyed differently.
Refer to Table 1 to determine the correct cable for each connector

IOS Configuration
The DuraMAR 5915-2X System is shipped with a Cisco factory-installed IOS on both the router and
switch portions.
Custom network configuration is the responsibility of the customer. This manual is not intended as a
guide to the Cisco 5915, ESS2020 or IOS. That information is available directly from Cisco Systems at
www.cisco.com. The Cisco website is also the source for Cisco IOS files.

Zeroization
Caution! The Zeroization function can delete all IOS and configuration files on the system!
Zeroization should only be enabled if it is intended to be used.
Enabling Zeroization for the Cisco 5915 (ROU)
Prior to applying the zeroization signal, the Cisco IOS must be configured to enable zeroization.
From an IOS prompt, enter the following commands:
Router> enable
Router# conf t
Router(config)# service declassify erase-all
Router(config)# exit
The “erase-all” argument will erase all files on the router (flash and NVRAM) when
declassification (zeroization) is invoked
“erase-flash” or “erase-nvram” may be substituted for “erase-all” if only the files in flash memory
or NVRAM, respectively, are to be deleted.
Enabling Zeroization for the Cisco ESS2020 (SWI)
From an IOS prompt, enter the following commands:
Switch> enable
Switch# conf t
Switch(config)# service declassify erase-flash
Switch(config)# exit
Switch#
Initiating Zeroization
Caution! Triggering zeroization from either ring (ROU or SWI) will cause the entire system to be
zeroized.
If you only want to zeroize one system, ensure that zeroization is enabled on only that ring –see
above.
The hardware setup must generate the off-board Zeroization trigger. Zeroization is triggered by pulling the
zeroize signal low (0v).
If you have CBL-2419-01, trigger zeroization by connection the yellow wire (zeroize) to the green
wire (ground).
J9 can also be used to trigger zeroization by connecting J9 pin 5 (ground) to J9 pin 9 (zeroize)
Caution! This differs from the MAR-5915-0x and -1x systems.
The -0x and -1x systems require 12v to trigger zeroization
DO NOT apply 12v to the zeroize signal on MAR-5915-2x or system damage may occur.
Caution! If zeroization is enabled use J9 as a console with caution.
Inadvertant zeroization is possible if a J9 connected cable grounds J9 pin 9.

Zeroization Recovery
After zeroization has occurred you can perform the following steps to reload the system.
Command Conventions
Commands and arguments you must type are shown in bold.
After you type the command, press the Enter key.
If several command lines are presented in one step, press Enter after each line.
Loading the ROU IOS Image After Zeroization
Host PC Setup
1. Identify the target folder used by the tftp server and place the Cisco IOS software image there.
Example IOS filename: c5915-entbase-mz.SPA.152-1.GC1.bin
2. Place the configuration file to be reloaded in the tftp target folder.
3. Attach the host PC to port 0/0 on J2. (This can be the same PC as that running the terminal
emulator.)
4. Set the IP address of the host PC to use the fixed address 192.168.100.11.
5. Open the tftp server on the host PC.
6. Open a terminal emulator on the host PC.
Note: The Solarwinds TFTP server has a file transfer size limit of 32 MB. This is normally not a
problem for the base IOS here. But if the Advanced IOS or other file in excess of 32 MB is
transferred, the file is too large for Solarwinds. The TFTPD32 TFTP server handles the larger file
size without a problem.
Load Procedure
There should be a rommon prompt in the terminal emulator window. If the rommon prompt is not
displayed, reboot the DuraMAR 5915 and wait for the rommon prompt.
1. At the rommon command prompt, type the following CASE-SENSITIVE commands (press Enter after
each command, the filename itself is NOT case-sensitive):
IP_ADDRESS=192.168.100.10
IP_SUBNET_MASK=255.255.255.0
DEFAULT_GATEWAY=192.168.100.11
TFTP_SERVER=192.168.100.11
TFTP_FILE= <IOS filename>
2. At the rommon command prompt, type “set” and Enter. Verify the variables in step 1 have been set
correctly.
3. At the rommon command prompt, type the following CASE-SENSITIVE command and Enter:
tftpdnld
4. At the prompt: “Do you wish to continue y/n: [n],” type y.

5. The IOS will begin transferring to the Cisco 5915. If the transfer does not begin, a message will be
displayed explaining the problem. Fix the problem and repeat the tftpdnld command.
6. When the file transfer is completed, issue a reset command at the rommon prompt.
7. The Cisco 5915 will then reboot and load. After the Cisco 5915 has finished the startup sequence,
press Enter to display the Router> prompt. The Cisco IOS has been successfully reloaded.
8. Now follow the instructions in the next section to reload the IOS configuration.
Loading the ROU IOS Configuration After Zeroization
After zeroization, you have to reload your configuration. In these instructions, filename is the name of the
IOS configuration file saved on the host PC, such as 5915config.bin. If you are using a different file, use
that filename in the steps below.
9. Set the router port IP address:
Router> enable
Router# conf t
Router(config)# Interf fast 0/0
Router(config-if)# ip address 192.168.100.10 255.255.255.0
Router(config-if)# no shut
Router(config-if)# exit
Router(config)# exit
Router# copy tftp://192.168.100.11/filename startup-config
Destination filename [startup-config] ?
10. Make sure that the [ok- xxxx bytes] message is displayed. If not, fix the error and repeat the copy tftp
command.
11. Power off the system.
12. Power on the system.
13. After the reload completes, press Enter to display a Router> prompt. The Cisco 5915 IOS
configuration has been successfully reloaded.
Loading the SWI IOS Image After Zeroization
Note: This example uses TeraTerm as the terminal emulator. Other compatible applications can also be
used.
From the SWI console
switch: set BAUD 115200
Now, illegible characters will appear in the TeraTerm window when <enter> is pressed.
In TeraTerm go to Setup-> Serial Port and change Baud rate: to 115200 <OK>

Installation
Orientation
The DuraMAR 5915-2X can be mounted either vertically or horizontally and will perform equally well in
either orientation. The target location normally dictates the mounting orientation.
Choosing a Mounting Location –Thermal Considerations
The DuraMAR5915-2X enclosure is highly efficient at removing heat from the inside of the unit to the
outside of the finned enclosure. It is best to mount the unit on a thermally cool, thermally conductive
surface to keep the overall temperature as low as possible. Every effort has been made to meet stringent
thermal performance criteria as outlined in the specifications. However, it is always good practice to keep
the DuraMAR5915-2X as cool as possible, avoiding environments which do not allow the thermal
conduction of heat away from the unit.

Vertical Mounting
To install the DuraMAR5915-2X vertically on a mounting surface:
14. Create a hole pattern on the mounting surface that matches the pattern shown in Figure 3. The
mounting holes are 0.27” in diameter.
15. Attach the baseplate to the mounting surface using the four mounting holes. Attachment screws
should be 1/4-20.
Important!
Ensure that mounting screw length allows proper thread engagement of the mounting hardware.
