Power On the Router
To power on the router, follow these steps:
Step 1 Either switch on all the circuit breakers or plug the power cord into an active
power source that controls power to the PDU in the router.
During the first-time startup, the system displays the system banner information.
Check the startup banner and displays to ensure that the system has restarted
properly and that all the interfaces reinitialize properly.
Step 2 Check the power module LEDs. They should appear as described below:
For a router equipped with AC-input power supplies:
Green LED labeled AC—When the power module is fully seated in its
bay and is receiving source power within the required range, this LED
should be on. It indicates that AC power is present and is within specified
limits. The power supply fan should also be on.
Green LED labeled DC—Power supply is operating normally in a
powered-on condition.
For a router equipped with DC-input PEMs:
Green LED labeled INPUT OK—When the power module is fully seated
in its bay and is receiving source power within the required range, this
LED should be on. It indicates that DC power is present and is within
specified limits. The power supply fan should also be on.
Green LED labeled OUTPUT OK—DC-input PEM is operating normally
in a powered-on condition.
Amber LED labeled MISWIRE—Should be off. When it is on, it
indicates that the input is wired backward at the PDU input.
Step 3 Go to the rear of the chassis and visually check the two LEDs on the front of the
blower module. They should appear as described below:
Green LED labeled OK—Should be on
Red LED labeled FAIL—Should be off
Step 4 Listen for the blowers in the blower module; you should immediately hear them
operating.
