Verifying the Installation
This section describes how to verify the SIP and SPA installation by observing the SIP LED states, SPA
LED states, and the information displayed on the console terminal.
When the system has reinitialized all interfaces, the SIP STATUS LED should be green (on) and the SPA
STATUS LEDs should be green (on). The port LEDs (C/A and A/L) may be green (on), depending on
your connections and configuration. The console screen also displays a message as the system discovers
each interface during its reinitialization.
Note
A POS interface is used in the following examples for illustrative purposes.
The following sample display shows the events logged by the system as a SIP with a POS SPA was
removed from module slot 4 in the router. In this example, interface 0 (interface 4/0/0) on the POS SPA
was up and active when the SIP was removed from the router. Note that the system logs that the SIP card
was removed from slot 4 and that interface 4/0/0 is changed to
down
.

00:06:17:%OIR-6-REMCARD:Card removed from slot 4, interfaces disabled
00:06:18:%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN:Line protocol on Interface pos4/0/0, changed state to down
When you reinsert the SIP with the installed POS SPA, the system automatically brings up the interface
that was changed to
down
when the SIP was removed.

00:07:29:%OIR-6-INSCARD:Card inserted in slot 4, interfaces administratively shut down
00:07:32:%WS_ALARM-6-INFO:CLEAR CRITICAL slot 4 Active Card Removed OIR Alarm
00:07:35:%LINK-3-UPDOWN:Interface pos4/0/0, changed state to up
00:07:36:%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN:Line protocol on Interface pos4/0/0, changed state to up
Use the following procedure to verify that a SIP and SPA are installed correctly:
Step 1
Observe the console display messages and verify that the system discovers the SIP, while the system
reinitializes each interface, as follows:
•
As a SIP is initialized, the STATUS LED will first be yellow, indicating that power is on, but the SIP
is being configured. When the SIP is active, the STATUS LED will illuminate green.
•
SPAs will follow the same sequence once the SIP has completed its initialization. The SPA STATUS
LEDs will illuminate yellow, turning to green when the SPAs become active.
Step 2
When the SIP and SPA STATUS LEDs are green, all associated interfaces are configurable.
Refer to the
Cisco IOS XR Getting Started Guide
for configuration instructions.
