Data channel—Supports AT command and Point-to-Point (PPP) packet exchange during data calls
Control channel—Supports modem control and status, call processing, and event notification
Diagnostic channel—Supports the QUALCOMM Diagnostic Monitoring protocol used by support tools
GSM Module SIM Interface
The GSM module has two GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) SIM card sockets for storing critical subscriber authentication information. The SIM card can be installed in either of the two available sockets accessible on the front panel of the 3G module. Only one slot is active at any given time—if both slots SIM0 and SIM1 are occupied by a card, then the system activates SIM0. This behavior cannot be reconfigured.
The SIM card stores critical GSM subscriber authentication information.
The two SIM cards are powered by the modem and operate at 5 MHz.
The SIM card is a 3.3 V device, and it has 2.8 V power applied to its power pin.
Through the software you can control which SIM is connected to the modem. Only one SIM can be connected to the modem at any time. The SIM switching circuit also provides the option of disconnecting both SIMs from the modem. The 3G Debug and SIM Control register controls the SIM connections.
By setting the SIM Socket Enable and the SIM Socket Select bit, you can control the signal and power connections from the modem to the SIM card.
Table 10 shows the options used to connect to SIM0 and SIM1 cards:

Module Power States
The module has the following power states:
Normal mode (default mode)—Module is active. Receive and Transmit modes are possible. In this state:
– The module is fully powered
– The module is capable of placing/receiving calls or establishing data connections on the wireless network
– The USB interface is fully active
Note The module unit defaults to the Normal state when VCC is first applied.
Low power mode ( airplane mode)—The module is active, but RF is disabled. In this state, RF (both Rx and Tx) is disabled on the module, but the USB interface is still active. This state is controlled though the host interface by the following software commands:
– +CFUN=0 command (AT Command Set for User Equipment (UE) (Release 6))
Note The module goes from normal mode into low-power mode to suspend RF activity. This occurs when the module’s supply voltage exceeds either the high or low limits. The module returns to normal mode to resume RF activity. It occurs when the module’s supply voltage returns from critical to normal limits.
Disconnected mode —No power to the module. The host power source is disconnected from the module and all voltages associated with the module are at 0 V.
CGR 1120 and CGR 1240 control the power to the module, therefore the host can stay powered on and cut the power in order to put the module into the disconnected state.
The module begins a shutdown sequence and powers off if it has been in a powered-on state for more than 10.5 seconds and the host device drives the W_Disable# signal low for:
Note You must reload the system after installing or changing the SIM card.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage can occur when electronic cards or components are handled improperly, which can result in complete or intermittent failures.
To prevent ESD damage:
Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.
Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unfinished chassis surface.
Place a removed compact SIM card on an antistatic surface or in a static shielding bag. If the card will be returned to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.
Avoid contact between the card and clothing. The wrist strap protects the card from ESD voltages on the body only; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.
Do not remove the wrist strap until the installation is complete.
Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment. Statement 1030
Caution
For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).
Installing the SIM Card (GSM Module)
To install the SIM card:
Step 1 Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, loosen the screw that secures the SIM slot cover in place. Rotate the cover downward so it exposes the SIM slot.
Step 2 Insert the SIM card with the key (notch) positioned on the right-hand side. The SIM card will come in contact with the metal contacts in the socket.

To remove the module from a router:
Caution
The module can not be hot swapped—to remove the module, you must first power down the host router.
Step 1 Before you remove the Cisco Connected Grid 3G Module from the host router, power down the router as described in the Hardware Installation Guide of your router.
Step 2 Using a screwdriver, loosen the two captive screws on the Cisco Connected Grid 3G Module.
Note The 3G module can be plugged into slots 3 to 6 of Cisco 1240 Connected Grid Router. Therefore, the interface names used to configure the module can be 3/1, 4/1, 5/1, or 6/1. Interface 3/1 is used in the configuration examples in this section.
Note The 3G module can be plugged into slots 3 or 4 of Cisco 1120 Connected Grid Router. Therefore, the interface names used to configure the module can be 3/1 or 4/1. Interface 3/1 is used in the configuration examples in this section.
Prerequisites
To configure the 3G module, you must meet the following requirements:
Have 2G/3G network coverage where your router will be physically located. For a complete list of supported carriers, see the product data sheet.
Subscribe to a service plan with a wireless service provider and obtain a SIM card.
Install the SIM card before configuring the 3G module. For instructions on how to install the SIM card, see the section, Installing the SIM Card (GSM Module).
When installing within a Verizon network, be sure that you register the 3G Verizon modem as CGR 1240.
Configuration Restrictions
The following restrictions apply to configuring the Cisco Connected Grid 3G Module:
Data connection can be originated only by the module.
Throughput: Due to the shared nature of wireless communications, the experienced throughput varies depending on the number of active users or congestion in a given network.
Cellular networks have higher latency compared to wired networks. Latency rates depend on the technology and carrier. Latency may be higher because of network congestion.
Any restrictions that are a part of the terms of service from your carrier.
Configuring the GSM Module
Before beginning the steps below, contact your ISP and get your access point name.
Note In the following examples, the interface name, including the slot number, is used as an example. Your configuration will vary depending on the slot in which you have installed your 3G module.
Step 1: Creating a GSM Profile
Use the cellular 3/1 gsm profile command to configure a GSM profile:
Use the dialer commands to configure dialer parameters:
Router(config)# interface dialer 1
Router(config-if)# dialer pool 1
Router(config-if)# dialer string chat-script_name
Router(config-if)# dialer persistent
Router(config-if)# no shutdown
Note To disable dialer persistent, you must delete the profile by using the command, cellular 3/1 gsm profile delete 1.
Step 4: Configuring Cellular Parameters
Use the dialer pool-member command to configure cellular parameters:
Router(config)# interface cellular 3/1
Router(config-if)# dialer pool-member 1
Step 5: Saving Configuration
Use the no shutdown commands to activate the interface:
Router(config)# interface cellular 3/1
Router(config-if)# no shutdown
Disabling GSM Configuration
All configuration commands can be disabled by using the no option. The dialer persistent profile must be deleted with the command cellular 3/1 gsm profile delete 1.
The CDMA module supports PPP Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) type 6 and type 7 password support for Simple IP (SIP) to provide strength-check configuration on passwords. The SIP CLI command enables you to configure your hostname and password on a cellular interface to be used for PPP negotiation.
Currently, the password is not subject to password strength-check configuration because the CGR acts as the PPP client rather than a server. Typically, the hostname and password are managed and set by the cellular network-side server with strength-check functionality.
Use the ppp chap hostname command in interface configuration mode. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.
Router(config-if)# ppp chap hostname xyz
Use the ppp chap password command in interface configuration mode. To disable the PPP CHAP password, use the no form of this command.
Router(config-if)# ppp chap password ?
6 Type-6 encrypted
7 Type-7 encrypted
WORD PPP CHAP clear text password (Max Size 63)
Step 1: Configuring a Chat Script
Use the chat-script command to configure a GSM chat script:
Use the dialer commands to configure dialer parameters:
Router(config)# interface dialer 1
Router(config-if)# dialer pool 1
Router(config-if)# dialer string chat-script_name
Router(config-if)# dialer persistent
Router(config-if)# no shutdown
Step 3: Configuring PPP Encapsulation
Use the feature ppp command to configure PPP encapsulation:
Router(config)# feature ppp
Step 4: Configuring Cellular Parameters
Use the dialer pool and encapsulation ppp commands to configure cellular parameters:
Router(config)# interface cellular 3/1
Router(config-if)# dialer pool-member 1
Router(config-if)# encapsulation ppp
Step 5: Saving Configuration
Use the no shutdown command to activate the interface:
Router(config)# interface cellular 3/1
Router(config-if)# no shutdown

Data Account Provisioning
Note For the Cisco Connected Grid 3G Module, the interface number is 3/1 for all commands.
Note To provision the GSM or CDMA modem, you must have an active wireless account with a service provider. The GSM module requires a SIM card installed.
To provision your data account, see the following topics:
Step 4 Configure dialer parameters on the interface by using the interface command to enter interface configuration mode, and the dialer command to configure persistent dialer mode.
Step 5 Configure cellular parameters on the interface by using the interface and dialer commands:
Router(config)# interface cellular 3/1
Router(config-if)# dialer pool-member 1
Step 6 Shut down and then enable the interface using the shutdown and no shutdown commands:
Router(config)# interface cellular 3/1
Router(config-if)# shutdown
Router(config-if)# no shutdown
Disabling GSM Dialer Persistent
The interface configuration command, dialer persistent, allows a dial-on-demand routing (DDR) dialer profile connection to be brought up without being triggered by interesting traffic. When configured, the dialer persistent command starts a timer when the dialer interface starts up and starts the connection when the timer expires. If interesting traffic arrives before the timer expires, the connection is still brought up and set as persistent. The command provides a default timer interval, or you can set a custom timer interval.
The connection is brought down when the shutdown interface command is entered on the dialer interface. If the persistent connection is torn down for some other reason, such as the ISDN line goes down, the system immediately tries to bring the connection back up, and will use any other settings configured for dialing on the dialer interface. The Dialer Persistent feature allows the connection settings in the dialer profile to be configured as persistent, that is, the connection is not torn down until the shutdown interface command is entered on the dialer interface.
The dialer persistent feature can be disabled with the no dialer persistent command.
CDMA Cellular Interface Configuration
The following example shows how to configure the cellular interface:
Step 1 Configure a chat script using the chat-script command:
Router(config)# chat-script chat-script_name ATDT#777 <-- ATDT777# is the chat-script name.
Step 2 Configure dialer parameters by using the dialer command:
Router(config)# interface dialer 1
Router(config-if)# dialer pool 1
Router(config-if)# dialer string ATDT777#
Router(config-if)# dialer persistent
Router(config-if)# no shutdown
Step 3 Configure PPP encapsulation by using the feature command:
Router(config)# feature ppp
Step 4 Configure the cellular parameters by using the encapsulation command:
Router(config)# interface cellular 3/1
Router(config-if)# dialer pool-member 1
Router(config-if)# encapsulation ppp
Step 5 Save changes by issuing shutdown and no shutdown on the interface:
The following example shows a configuration that includes information on TACACS+ security, OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), OSPF v3, DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), DHCP v6, a tunnel, virtual tunnel, QoS, Internet Protocol Security (IPSec), a static IP address when a tunnel interface (3/1) is configured, the interfaces (Ethernet, serial, cellular, WPAN, and WiFi), dialer, and chat script. The cellular-related configurations are highlighted.

You can upgrade the NX-OS software on the Cisco router by using the install all command in one of the two possible approaches:
Download the images (kickstart, system image, or firmware) from a remote server into the volatile memory of the Cisco CG-OS router by employing the install all command to specify the path to the remote server and the protocol. After the download, the software installation begins automatically.
Download the images (kickstart, system image, or firmware) from a local server directly into the bootflash of the Cisco CG-OS router, and then manually enter the install all command to initiate the software upgrade.
The following table provides detailed command syntax for the install all command.
install all [kickstart {bootflash: | ftp: [ // server ][ / path ] | scp:[ // [ username @ ] server ][ / path ] | sftp: [ // [ username @ ] server ][ / path ] | tftp: [ // server [ : port ]][ / path ] | volatile: } kickstart-filename ] [ system {bootflash: | ftp:[ // server ][ / path ] | scp:[ // [ username @ ] server ][ / path ] | sftp:[ // [ username @ ] server ][ / path ] | tftp:[ // server [ : port ]][ / path ] | volatile:} system-filename ] [non-interactive]
The install all command specifies the software images being downloaded (kickstart, system, or firmware images), the method used to download the images such as FTP, SCP, TFTP (remote server downloads only), and the destination of the images (bootflash or volatile) on the Cisco CG-OS router.
Define bootflash: as the destination in the install all command when the download is from a local server.
Define volatile: as the destination in the install all command when you are downloading the software from a remote server (such as Cisco.com or a remote server in your own network).
kickstart bootflash: kickstart-file-name –Identifies the file as a kickstart image and the file name of that image. Format of the kickstart filename is as follows: cg-os_kick.bin. File name is case sensitive.
system bootflash: system-filename –Specifies internal flash memory as the destination of the software images. Format of the bootflash filename is as follows: cg-os_sys.bin. File name is case sensitive.
ftp: Specifies File Transfer Protocol (FTP) as the transfer method for the software images (kickstart and system).
scp:– Specifies Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) as the transfer method for the software images (kickstart and system).
sftp: –Specifies Secure Shell FTP (SFTP) as the transfer method for the software images (kickstart and system).
tftp: –Specifies Trivial FTP (TFTP) as the transfer method for the software images (kickstart and system).
username@ –Specifies the username on the server. Username is case-sensitive.
//path –Defines the path to the server on which the software images reside.
//server– Defines the IPv4 address or name of the server on which the software images reside.
[non-interactive] –Eliminates the need for interaction or responses from an administrator during the process. Process proceeds to completion without requesting approval by the user.
EXAMPLES
This example shows how to download the software images from a remote FTP server onto the Cisco CG-OS router bootflash. After download, the software installation starts automatically on the Cisco CG-OS router.
cgr1000# install all kickstart ftp://10.10.1.1/cg-os_kick.bin system ftp://10.10.1.1/cg-os_sys.bin
This example shows how to download the software images from a remote SCP server onto the Cisco CG-OS router bootflash. After download, the software installation starts automatically on the Cisco CG-OS router.
cgr1000# install all kickstart scp://adminuser@10.10.1.1/cg-os_kick.bin system scp://adminuser@10.10.1.1/cg-os_sys.bin
This example shows how to copy the image from a remote SCP server onto the Cisco CG-OS router bootflash and then manually upgrade the software by using the install all command.
cgr1000# install all kickstart bootflash:cg-os_kick.bin system bootflash:cg-os_sys.bin
This example shows how to copy the image from a remote SCP server onto the Cisco CG-OS router bootflash without requiring any action or entry by the administrator. All actions proceed automatically.

Retrieving the Electronic Serial Number
If your network provider requests the 11-digit decimal equivalent of your Electronic Serial Number (ESN), you must retrieve your ESN, then convert it to decimal notation. See also, Converting Hexadecimal ESN to Decimal Notation.
The ESN number is located directly on the modem label in hexadecimal notation. It can also be retrieved using the Cisco IOS CLI using the show cellular 3/1 all command.

Converting Hexadecimal ESN to Decimal Notation
If your network provider requests the 11-digit decimal equivalent of your Electronic Serial Number (ESN), you must retrieve your ESN, then convert it to decimal notation. See also, Retrieving the Electronic Serial Number.
To convert the ESN number from hexadecimal notation to decimal notation:
Step 1 Start with the 8-digit HEX ESN # obtained from the label or using the CLI, for example 0x603C9854. This number consists of two parts:
0x60—Serial number
3C9854—Manufacturer’s code
Step 2 Convert the manufacturer’s code to decimal as shown:
Hexadecimal 0x60 equals decimal 96.
If the decimal value is two digits only, prepend it with a zero to expand it to three digits.
Manufacturer’s code is thus 096.
Step 3 Convert the serial number to decimal, as shown in the example below:
Hexadecimal 0x3C9854 equals decimal 3971156.
If the decimal value is less than 8 digits, add enough zeros to make it into an 8 digit number.
Serial number is thus 03971156.
Step 4 To obtain the complete 11-digit decimal ESN, combine the manufacturer code and serial number:
Manufacturer code: 096
Serial #: 03971156
Decimal ESN: 09603971156
