Chapter 3 Installing Modules and Cables in the Chassis
Installing and Removing Modular Port Adapters
When the system has reinitialized all interfaces, the modular port adapter (MPA) STATUS LEDs should be on (green). The port LEDs (C/A and A/L) may be on (green), depending on your connections and configuration.
Use this procedure to verify that a modular port adapter (MPA) is installed correctly:
Step 1 Observe the console display messages and verify that the system discovers the modular line card (MLC), while the system reinitializes each interface, thus:
•As a modular port adapter (MPA) is initialized, the STATUS LED will first be amber, indicating that power is on. When the modular port adapter card (MPA) is active, the STATUS LED will illuminate green.
Step 2 When the modular port adapter (MPA) STATUS LEDs are green, all associated interfaces are configurable.
•If a modular port adapter (MPA) is replaced with a module of the same type (as in an OIR or hardware swap), the previous configuration is reinstated when the modular port adapter (MPA) becomes active.
•If a modular port adapter (MPA) has not been previously installed in the same slot or subslot, then the configuration for all associated interfaces is empty.
Note New interfaces are not made available until you configure them.
Step 3 If the modular port adapters (MPAs) do not become active within three minutes, refer to the system console messages. If there is no indication that a
Using show Commands to Verify Modular Port Adapter (MPA) Status
This procedure uses show commands to verify that the new modular port adapters (MPAs) are configured and operating correctly.
Step 1 Use the show
Step 2 Use the show diag command to display information about the installed modular line cards (MLCs).
Step 3 Use the show
Note If a modular port adapter (MPA) does not meet the minimum version required, the FPD may need to be updated. Refer to Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router System Management Configuration Guide for instructions. If the update fails, the failing module is powered down and an error message displays on the system console.
Step 4 Use the show platform command to check the state of all boards in the chassis, including the modular line card (MLC) and the modular port adapters (MPAs).
The modular port adapter (MPA) state should be “OK” and the modular line card (MLC) card state should be “IOS XR RUN” in the show platform command output.
