IP Routing Status

LC Status

This area displays the status of all the Line cards for the selected chassis. It displays a table that lists the potential slot numbers and the corresponding supported redundancy mode.

Note The slots identified by the slot numbers in the table, may not contain an RP or CSC or SFC.

Slot No—Displays the slot number of the available modules of the chassis.

RPR Mode—Displays the redundancy mode of the slot identified by the slot number.

IP Routing Status

IP routing is the process of moving packets from one network to another and delivering the packets to the hosts. Classless Inter-domain Routing (CIDR) is a method supported by classless routing protocols such as OSPF and BGP4. This is based on the concept of ignoring the IP class of the address permitting route aggregation and VLSM that enables the routers to combine the routes in order to minimize the routing information that needs to be conveyed by the primary routers. It allows a group of IP networks to appear to other networks as a unified and larger entity.

The IP Routing Status dialog displays the number of CIDR routes and details of the routes configured for the selected chassis. The user can use this information available in the IP Routing Status dialog to view and debug problems related to network CIDR routes.

An IP routing entry in the device can be configured using the following command sequence:

Router Prompt > configure terminal

ip route <Destination prefix> <Destination prefix mask> <Forwarding Router’s Address>

The IP routing entries can be viewed using the command:

Router Prompt > show ip route

The Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager uses the IP-FORWARD-MIB to populate the IP Routing Status dialog fields.
