Step 9
Repeat
Step 1
through
Step 8
to verify that any additional VIP6-80s are properly installed.
This completes the VIP6-80 installation.
If you experience other problems that you are unable to solve, contact TAC (see the
“Obtaining Technical
Assistance” section on page 38
), or a service representative for assistance.
To configure the new interface, use the configuration section of the specific port adapter installation and
configuration guide, or the Cisco IOS software configuration documentation listed in the
“Related
Documentation” section on page 2
. The documentation is available online on Cisco.com, and on the
Documentation CD-ROM.
Using show Commands to Verify the VIP6-80 Status
The following steps use
show
commands to verify that the new interfaces are configured and operating
correctly.
Step 1
Use the
show version
command to display the system hardware configuration. Ensure that the list
includes the new interfaces.
Step 2
Display all the current interface processors and their interfaces with the
show
controllers
command.
Verify that the new VIP6-80 appears in the correct interface processor slot.
Step 3
Specify one of the new interfaces with the
show interfaces
type interface-processor-slot-
number/port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number
command and verify that the first line of the
display specifies the interface with the correct slot number. Also verify that the interface and line
protocol are in the correct state: up or down.
Step 4
Display the protocols configured for the entire system and specific interfaces with the
show protocols
command. If necessary, return to configuration mode to add or remove protocol routing on the system
or specific interfaces.
Step 5
Display the running configuration file with the
show running-config
command. Display the
configuration stored in the RSP NVRAM using the
show startup-config
command. Verify that the
configuration is accurate for the system and each interface.
If the interface is down and you configured it as up, or if the displays indicate that the hardware is not
functioning properly, ensure that the network interface is properly connected and terminated. If you still
have problems bringing the interface up, contact a service representative for assistance.
This completes the procedure to verify that the new interfaces are properly configured, using the
show
commands.
