To locate and download MIBs for selected platforms, Cisco IOS releases, and feature sets, use Cisco MIB Locator found at the following URL:

http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/MIBS/servlet/index

If Cisco MIB Locator does not support the MIB information that you need, you can also obtain a list of supported MIBs and download MIBs from the Cisco MIBs page at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/netmgmt/cmtk/mibs.shtml

To access Cisco MIB Locator, you must have an account on Cisco.com. If you have forgotten or lost your account information, send a blank e-mail to cco-locksmith@cisco.com. An automatic check will verify that your e-mail address is registered with Cisco.com. If the check is successful, account details with a new random password will be e-mailed to you. Qualified users can establish an account on Cisco.com by following the directions found at this URL:

Displaying the SPA Hardware Type

To verify the SPA hardware type that is installed in your Cisco 7304 router, you can use the show interfaces command. There are several other commands on the Cisco 7304 router that also provide SPA hardware information.

Table 12-1 shows the hardware description that appears in the show command output for each type of SPA that is supported on the Cisco 7304 router.

Table 12-1 SPA Hardware Descriptions in show Commands

SPA
Description in show interfaces and show controllers commands

4-Port T3/E3 SPA

"Hardware is SPA-4XT3/E3"

2-Port T3/E3 SPA

"Hardware is SPA-2XT3/E3"
