A pair of status LEDs that correspond to each of the 9 card slots in the switch fabric and alarm card cage (seven fabric cards and two alarm cards):

ENABLED (green)

On—The card installed in that slot is operational and functioning properly.

Off—Either the slot is empty or the card installed in that slot is faulty.

FAIL (yellow)—The card in that slot is faulty.

Line Card and Route Processor Overview

The line card and route processor (RP) card cage has 10 user-configurable slots that support a combination of line cards and either one or two RPs (see Figure 1-2). Router configurations can consist of either nine line cards and one RP, or eight line cards and two RPs (one primary and one redundant) using the following slot configurations:

Slots 0 to 7 accommodate the newer (wider) line card designs. These wider line card slots can also accept narrower legacy line cards.

Slots 8 and 9 only accept RPs or a narrower legacy line card.

Note If a system uses only one RP install it in slot 9. You can use slot 8 for a legacy line card.
