Question about Cisco UCM

I have a group project at school. We were assigned a cisco 2951 ISR router and a MCS 7828 appliance to provide VoIP services for a small company. I am just starting to work on my CCNA at this point.

Quick question about cabling an ISR router and a Cisco MCS 7828 appliance. Would they be connected via ethernet?

Thanks in advance.

    The Unified Communications Manager appliance is basically a stripped down LINUX server – so yes, it would connect via Ethernet. Hopefully they’re going to give you a switch to work with too :)

    Ok, that makes more sense. We are given a Catalyst 2960 switch - forgot to put that in earlier. Would you need a layer 3 switch between the UCM and the 2960?
