Viewing the Hardware Configuration

Chapter 5 Configuring the MGX RPM-PR

Verifying the Configuration

5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec

0 packets input, 0 bytes

Received 0 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles 0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored 0 watchdog

0 input packets with dribble condition detected

5 packets output, 300 bytes, 0 underruns(0/0/0)

5 output errors, 0 collisions, 0 interface resets

0 babbles, 0 late collision, 0 deferred

6 lost carrier, 0 no carrier

0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out

Step 2 Enter the show protocols command to display the protocols configured for the entire system and for the specific interfaces.

If necessary, return to configuration mode to add or remove protocol routing on the system or specific interfaces.

Verify that the line protocol is up. When the interface and line protocol are up, this indicates that you have a working interface, as shown below.

Router>show protocols

Global values:

Internet Protocol routing is enabled

FastEthernet1/1 is up, line protocol is up

Switch1 is up, line protocol is up

Switch1.1 is up, line protocol is up

Internet address is 1.1.1.1/24

Switch1.2 is up, line protocol is up

Internet address is 1.1.2.1/24

Switch1.1000 is up, line protocol is up

Step 3 Enter the show running-configcommand to display the running configuration file.

Step 4 Enter the show startup-configcommand to display the configuration stored in NVRAM.

Verify that the configuration is accurate for the system and that each interface is the same. If they are different from running-config, you may have forgotten to enter a copy run start command.

If the interface is down and you have configured it to be up, or if the displays indicate that the hardware is not functioning properly, be sure that the network interface is properly connected and terminated. If you still have problems bringing the interface up, contact a service representative for assistance.

For detailed software configuration information, refer to the Cisco IOS configuration and command reference publications. These publications are available on the Documentation CD-ROM that came with your RPM-PR, or you can order printed copies.

The show version (or show hardware) command displays the configuration of the system hardware, for example, the number of each back card type installed, the software version, the names and sources of configuration files, and the boot images.

Note You may not be able to view hardware configuration information using show version from a remote location.

The following is an example of the show version command output.
