Chapter 3 Installing Modules and Cables in the Chassis

Installing and Removing Modular Port Adapters

Step 5 Use the show version command to obtain software version information for the installed modular line cards (MLCs) as well as interfaces available.

Using show Commands to Display Modular Port Adapter (MPA) Information

Table 3-4describes the show commands you can use to display modular port adapter (MPA) information.

Table 3-4	show Commands to Display Modular Port Adapter (MPA) Information

Using the ping Command to Verify Network Connectivity

The ping command allows you to verify whether a modular port adapter (MPA) port is functioning properly and to check the path between a specific port and connected devices at various locations on the network. After you verify that the system and the modular line card (MLC) have booted successfully and are operational, you can use this command to verify the status of the modular port adapter (MPA) ports.
