Cisco Default IP (10.10.10.1)
I've just received a Cisco router 1921.
Opened the box and check for a manual or a CD that would explain what to do configure it, but nothing. As the online documentation from Cisco must be somewhere I've not been looking yet, I had no idea what to do with this box.
I figured it out by connecting my computer to the console port. Using ZTerm for OS X with the following settings:
Default user/pass is cisco/cisco
Then pay attention to the procedure to change the password on the welcome message.
So after listing the configuration looks like the default IP for port 0/0 is not 10.0.0.1 anymore as some website suggest, but 10.10.10.1
So you can directly telnet it to this address, or even use the web admin (if you have Java...).
