Cisco Cisco Physical Access Reader Module

If you are already familiar with the parameters to be configured, you can manually enter the values to be 
used without having to run the installer for user interaction. For example, instead of being prompted with 
the language options for Cisco Unity Express, you can enter the appropriate variable string and the 
installer verifies the values against the valid language options and does not prompt you for that option 
during the interactive portion of the installation process.

See your application’s command-line interface (CLI) administrator guide for details on how to configure 
application parameters using the CLI. 

Some configuration options may be set using Cisco Configuration Professional web-based applications. 
See 

 for more details about downloading and using Cisco Configuration 

Professional.

To upgrade Cisco SRE software to the later version, see the application’s installation and upgrade guide.

After the application software is installed, the SMs have their own startup and run-time configurations 
that are independent of the Cisco IOS configuration on the host router. The SMs do not have an external 
console port. Instead, you launch and configure each module through the host router by means of a 
configuration session on the module. After the session, you can return to the router’s CLI and clear the 
session.

The host router and the SM (the module is also referred to as an appliance or blade or, with installed 
software, a service module)—provide a router-integrated application platform for accelerating 
data-intensive applications. 

Typically, such applications involve the following services:

Application-oriented networking

Contact centers and interactive voice-response applications

Content caching and delivery

Data and video storage

Voice mail and auto-attendant applications

To configure and manage the Cisco ISM-SRE and SM-SRE modules, you should understand the 
following topics:
