Checking the Configuration

Use the show version command to display the configuration of the system hardware (the number of each port adapter type installed), the software version, the names and sources of configuration files, and the boot images. Following is an example of the output from the show version command:

Use the show diag slot command to determine which type of port adapter is installed in your system. Specific port adapter information is displayed, as shown in the following example of a PA-2H HSSI port adapter in port adapter slot 2:

Router# show diag 2
Slot 2:
HSSI-B port adapter, 1				port

Note Port adapters used with the 7200 VXR routers require the correct base hardware revision in order to function. The following error message will occur on bootup if the incorrect hardware revision is used:

PA-3-REVNOTSUPPORTED:PA in slot 1 (Ethernet) requires base h/w revision of (1.14)

for this chassis

Use the show diag command to display the hardware revision.
