For an amber SUP LED, see the “Troubleshooting the Supervisor Modules” section on page 7-3.

For an amber FAB LED, see the “Troubleshooting the Fabric Modules” section on page 7-4.

For an amber IOM LED, see the “Troubleshooting the I/O Modules” section on page 7-5.

Troubleshooting the Power Supply

The following conditions indicate that you need to troubleshoot one or more power supply units:

The PSU LED on the chassis is amber.

The Input 1, Input 2, or Output LED on a power supply unit is not green.

The Fault LED on a power supply unit is flashing red.

Also, when there are power problems with other modules or the supervisor module PWR MGMT LED is amber, you need to troubleshoot the power supply units or check the seating of the modules that are not receiving power.

For a listing of the power supply unit LEDs and the conditions that they indicate, see Table C-5 on page C-5.

To troubleshoot a power supply problem, follow these steps:

Step 1 Determine which power supply unit has a problem. Check to see which power supply unit does not have its Input 1, Input 2, and Output LEDs lit.

Note If a power supply unit has only one power cord attached to an AC source, only the Input LED for the connected half of the power supply unit should be lit.

Step 2 If one of the required Input LEDs is not lit, perform each of the following checks on the power cord used for that half of the power supply unit:

Make sure that the power cord is securely connected to the AC source.

Make sure that the power cord is securely connected to the power supply unit. Verify that the cable retention device on the power supply unit is securely holding the power cord.

Disconnect the power cord from the AC source and reconnect with another AC source.

Step 3 If the Output LED is not lit, verify that the power switch is turned to ON.

Step 4 Make sure that the power supply unit is properly seated in the power supply bay by performing the following steps:

a.Turn the power switch to standby (STBY).

b.Loosen the four captive screws on the power supply unit so that they are no longer in contact with the chassis.

c.Pull the power supply unit part way out of the chassis and then push it back into the power supply bay. Make sure that the captive screws on the power supply unit align with their holes in the chassis.

d.Tighten the four captive screws to 8 lb. in.

e.Turn the power switch to ON.

Cisco Systems 7000 series routers are pivotal in the landscape of networking, providing high-performance, reliable solutions for enterprise environments and service providers. These routers were designed to support the growing demands of digital communication, offering robust features that enhance connectivity and streamline network operations.

One of the primary characteristics of the Cisco 7000 series is its modular architecture. This allows for the integration of various interface modules and processing units, enabling organizations to customize their routers according to specific networking needs. The modularity supports scalability, as businesses can upgrade or replace components as their requirements evolve without having to replace the entire system.

The Cisco 7000 series incorporates advanced routing protocols, ensuring efficient data packet management and traffic flow. It supports multiple protocols, including OSPF, BGP, and EIGRP, facilitating seamless integration into a variety of network environments. This flexibility is essential in modern networks, where diverse communication protocols are in use.

Load balancing capabilities are another significant feature of the Cisco 7000 series. This functionality allows for the optimal distribution of network traffic across multiple paths, enhancing performance and redundancy. By ensuring that no single route is overwhelmed, organizations can maintain uptime and improve overall user experience.

Security is a top priority for many businesses, and the Cisco 7000 series addresses this need with built-in security features. It supports Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and access control lists (ACL) to provide secure remote access and protect sensitive data from unauthorized access. This capability is vital in today’s threat landscape, where data breaches can have far-reaching consequences.

The series also boasts high throughput and low latency, making it suitable for bandwidth-intensive applications like video conferencing and cloud computing. Coupled with Quality of Service (QoS) features, the Cisco 7000 ensures that critical applications receive the bandwidth they need, thereby enhancing overall network performance.

In terms of manageability, the Cisco 7000 routers come equipped with advanced monitoring and diagnostic tools. Network administrators can easily track performance metrics and identify potential issues before they escalate, minimizing downtimes and maintaining business continuity.

In summary, the Cisco Systems 7000 series routers are a sophisticated solution for organizations seeking to optimize their networking infrastructure. With modularity, robust routing protocols, load balancing, security features, high performance, and comprehensive manageability, the Cisco 7000 series stands out as a reliable foundation for successful network operations in an increasingly connected world.
