Step 5 During the boot process, observe the system LEDs. The LEDs on the shared port adapter go on and off in irregular sequence. They may go on, go out, and go on again for a short time. On the router, the green STATUS LED comes on and stays on.

Verifying the Front Panel LEDs

The front-panel indicator LEDs provide power, activity, and status information useful during bootup. For more detailed information about the LEDs, refer to Chapter 2, “Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers Components.”

Verifying the Hardware Configuration

To display and verify the hardware features, enter the following commands:

show version—Displays the system hardware version; the installed software version; the names and sources of configuration files; the boot images; and the amount of installed DRAM, NVRAM, and flash memory.

show diag slot—Displays the IDPROM information for the assemblies in the chassis.

Checking Hardware and Software Compatibility

To check the minimum software requirements of the Cisco IOS software with the hardware installed on your Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers, Cisco maintains the Software Advisor tool on Cisco.com. This tool does not verify whether Cisco ASR 1000 Series SIPs or SPAs within a system are compatible; but the tool provides the minimum Cisco IOS requirements for individual hardware modules and components.

Note To access this tool, you must have a Cisco.com login account.

To access the Software Advisor, click Login at Cisco.com, type Software Advisor in the search box, and click Go. Click the link for the Software Advisor Tool.

Choose a product family or enter a specific product number to search for the minimum supported software needed for your hardware.
