  Installing the RSP8

Step 3

For a Cisco 7507, Cisco 7507-MX, Cisco 7513, or Cisco 7513-MX with HSA or HA configured, verify
that the console terminal displays the system banner and startup screen as the system restarts.

•

The active console display should look similar to the following for a Cisco 7513 and Cisco 7513-MX
(note the RSP slots indicated):

Slave in slot 3 is halted.

Step 4

With a single RSP8 (non-HSA or non-HA), verify that the console terminal displays the system banner
and startup screen as the system restarts. The display should look similar to the following:

Step 5

After the system boots the software and initializes the interface processors, verify that the RSP8 LEDs
are in the following states:

•

RSP8 normal LED is on (for each RSP8 installed).

•

CPU halt LED is off (for each RSP8 installed).

•

Master RSP8 active LED is on (if HSA or HA is configured).

•

Standby RSP8 standby LED is on (if HSA or HA is configured).
