Cisco 12000 Series Gigabit Switch Routers

Description

The Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers (GSR) is a new product class of routers that perform Internet routing and switching at gigabit speeds. The Cisco 12012 and Cisco 12008 meet the exponential growth in demand for Internet bandwidth and bring scalability and high-performance services to IP-based networks. Designed to meet current and future Internet traffic requirements, the Cisco 12000 series initially supports IP backbone links at OC-3/STM-1 (155 Mbps) and OC-12/STM-4 (622 Mbps)--facilities up to four times faster than those used today.

The Cisco 12000 series is built around a high-speed switching fabric that provides nonblocking bandwidth to support high-performance IP-based LANs and WANs. The switching fabric is scalable from 15 to 60 Gbps on the Cisco 12012 and from 10 to 40 Gbps on the Cisco 12008. Both the Cisco 120012 and Cisco 12008 support IP over SONET/SDH and ATM interfaces.

The Cisco 12012 has 12 user-configurable slots, and the Cisco 12008 has eight user-configurable slots. These slots contain line cards and Gigabit Route Processor (GRP). Network interfaces reside on line cards that provide connection between the router's switch fabric and the external networks.

For more information on the Cisco 12000 series, refer to the Cisco 12012 Gigabit Switch Router Installation and Configuration Guide and the Cisco 12008 Gigabit Switch Router Installation and Configuration Guide.

List of Terms

Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF)--An advanced Layer 3 switching technology for IP. CEF optimizes network performance and scalability for networks with large and dynamic traffic patterns, such as those associated with the Internet, Web-based applications, and interactive sessions.

Gigabit Route Processor (GRP)--Serves as the console for the Cisco 12000 series, handles environmental monitoring for the entire system, and provides the line cards with routing table updates.

Line cards--Provide connection between the router and the network and are available in a variety of network media types (based on your order). Line cards communicate with each other and with the GRP through the switch fabric.

Switch fabric--The circuitry that carries the user traffic between line cards or between the GRP and a line card.

Note New commands associated with the line cards are included in the "Command Reference" section of this feature module.

Loading Cisco IOS Images

Loading a Cisco IOS image on the GRP on a Cisco 12000 series router is the same as loading images on Cisco 7500 series routers. In addition to the Cisco IOS image that resides on the GRP, each line card on the Cisco 12000 series has a Cisco IOS image. When the router is reloaded, the specified Cisco IOS image is loaded onto the GRP, and that image is automatically dowloaded to all the line cards.

For information on how to load Cisco IOS images, refer to the "Loading Images and Configuration Files" chapter in the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide. For additional information, refer to the "Observing System Startup and Performing a Basic Configuration" chapter in the Cisco 12012 Gigabit Switch Router Installation and Configuration Guide.

Normally, you want the same Cisco IOS image on the GRP and all line cards. However, if you want to upgrade a line card with a new version of microcode for testing or to fix a defect, you might need to load a Cisco IOS image that is different from the one on the line card. Additionally, you might need to load a new image on the line card to work around a problem that is affecting only one of the line cards.

To load a Cisco IOS image on a line card, first use the copy tftp command to download the Cisco IOS image to a slot on one of the PCMCIA Flash cards. After you have downloaded the Cisco IOS image on the Flash card, perform the following tasks beginning in global configuration mode:

Task	Command
Step 1 Specify the type of line card, location of the Cisco IOS image, and the slot of the line card to download the image. If the slot number is omitted, the image is downloaded to all line cards.	microcode {oc12-atm \| oc12-pos \| oc3-pos-4} flash file_id slot-number
Step 2 Reload the image on the specified line card.	microcode reload slot-number
Step 3 Exit configuration mode.	exit
Step 4 Connect to the line card and verify that the new Cisco IOS image is on the line card by checking the version number in the display output.	execute-on slot slot-number show version or attach slot-number show version exit

Troubleshooting

The following sections provide some tools to troubleshoot problems on the Cisco 12000 series routers. For more information, refer to the troubleshooting and diagnostic chapters in the Cisco 12000 series installation and configuration guides.

For a listing of system error messages, refer to the "System Error Messages" feature module.

Also refer to the "Monitoring and Maintaining the Cisco 12000 Series" section, later in this document, for information on the show commands that might also be useful to troubleshoot problems.

Using Field Diagnostics

Each line card on the Cisco 12000 series can perform field diagnostic testing to isolate faulty hardware without disrupting normal operation of the system. However, performing field diagnostic testing on a line card does halt all activity on the line card for the duration of the testing. After successful completion of the field diagnostic testing, the Cisco IOS software is automatically reloaded on the line card.

Note The field diagnostic diag command must be executed from the GRP main console port.

To perform field diagnostic testing on a line card, perform the following tasks in privileged EXEC mode:

Task	Command
Step 1 Specify the line card that you want to perform diagnostic testing on. Optionally, specify that previous test results are displayed, that only extended power-on self-tests (POST) be performed, that the maximum messages are displayed, or that the Cisco IOS software not be reloaded on the line card after successful completion of the tests.	diag slot-number [previous \| post \| verbose \| wait]
Step 2 At the prompt, press Return to confirm that you want to perform field diagnostic testing on the specified line card, or type no to stop the testing.	`Running Diags will halt ALL activity on the requested slot. [confirm]`

To stop field diagnostic testing on a line card, perform the following tasks in privileged EXEC mode:

Task	Command
Specify the line card that you want to stop perform diagnostic testing on.	diag slot-number halt or no diag slot-number

Task

Command

Specify the line card that you want to stop perform diagnostic testing on.

diag slot-number halt

no diag slot-number

Note When you stop the field diagnostic test, the line card remains down (that is, in an unbooted state). In most cases, you stopped the testing because you need to remove the line card or replace the line card. If that is not the case and you want to bring the line card back up (that is, on-line), you must use the microcode reload global configuration command or power cycle the line card.

Storing Line Card Crash Information

This section explains how to enable storing of crash information for a line card and optionally specify the type and amount of information stored. Technical support representatives need to be able to look at the crash information from the line card to troubleshoot serious problems on the line card. The crash information contains all the line card memory information including the main memory and transmit and receive buffer information.

Caution Use the exception linecard global configuration command only when directed by a technical support representative and only enable options that the technical support representative requests you to enable.

To enable and configure the crash information options for a line card, perform the following task in global configuration mode:

Task	Command
Specify the line card that you want crash information for when a line card resets. Optionally, specify the type and amount of memory to be stored.	exception linecard {all \| slot number} [corefile filename \| main-memory size [k \| m] \| queue-ram size [k \| m] \| rx-buffer size [k \| m] \| sqe-register-rx \| sqe-register-tx \| tx-buffer size [k \| m]]

Monitoring and Maintaining the Cisco 12000 Series

The following sections describe some of the show commands you can use to obtain information about the Cisco 12000 series, describe how to set the LED message on the line cards, and describe the software components on the Cisco 12000 series and how to obtain information about these components.

Displaying System Information Using Show Commands

To provide information about system processes, the Cisco IOS software includes an extensive list of EXEC commands that begin with the word show, which, when executed, display detailed tables of system information. Following is a list of some of the common show commands.

To use the show commands on a line card, you can use the execute-on privileged EXEC command or you can connect to the Cisco IOS image running on the line card by using the attach privileged EXEC command.

Refer to the "Command Reference" section for detailed command syntax for the new or modified commands listed in this section.

Perform these tasks in privileged EXEC mode to display the information described:

Task	Command
Display information about the hardware.	show controllers
Display information stored in NVRAM when the router crashes. This command is only useful to technical support representatives.	show context
Display part number, revision number, and version number information for the line cards.	show diag
Display the current environmental specifications.	show environment
Display hardware information.	show gsr
Display the state of syslog error and event logging.	show logging
Display memory pool statistics including summary information about the activities of the system memory allocator and a block-by-block listing of memory use.	show memory
Display the microcode bundled into the system image.	show microcode
Display information about all active processes.	show processes
Display the configured protocols.	show protocols
Display stack usage of processes and interrupt routines, including the reason for the last system reboot. This command is only useful to your technical support representative.	show stacks

Setting the LED Message on the Line Cards

You can specify the message that is displayed on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards. You can also remove the user-specified message that is displayed on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards and revert to the normal status message for the line card.

To set or clear the LED message, perform one of the following tasks in privileged EXEC mode:

Task	Command
Set the message displayed on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards.	set card-message {all \| slot number} [expire seconds] [blink seconds] message
Clear the user-specified message that is displayed on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards and revert to the normal status message for the line card.	clear card-message {all \| slot number}

Understanding Software Components

There are many software components bundled with the Cisco IOS image for the Cisco 12000 series. In most cases you do not need to know about these components; however, during troubleshooting, you might be asked for the specific version number of the various components. Table 1 describes these software components, including those that are bundled with the Cisco IOS image for the Cisco 12000 series and lists the command you would use to determine the version of the component.

Note The syntax for the show controller command listed in Table 1 is complex. For details on the command syntax, refer to the "Command Reference" section.

**Table 1: Software Components in Cisco 12000 Series GSRs**
Software Component	Description	Version Information
MBus Agent Code	MBus agent code is bundled with the Cisco IOS image on the GRP card. When the router is powered on, the MBus agent powers on the GRP card.	show diag¹
GRP Cisco IOS Image	Cisco IOS image that runs on the GRP card. This is the main image for the Cisco 12000 series GSR. It contains images for all the line card types and various microcode bundles.	show version
GRP Boot Image	Cisco IOS image that runs on the GRP when it is booting from the network. This image is essentially the same as the Cisco IOS image, but it has large portions of the routing software removed because it only acts as an IP host to boot the router. It has all the same line card images and microcode bundles as the Cisco IOS image.	show version
Line Card Fabric Downloader	Code that the MBus downloads to the line card so the Cisco IOS image can be downloaded from the GRP over the switch fabric. This is a bootstrap loader that knows how to run the fabric only. There is only one version of the downloader, and it is bundled with the GRP Cisco IOS image.	show diag
Line Card Cisco IOS Image	Cisco IOS image that runs on the line card. This image is the main operational code for the line card, and the image senses the type of line card it is running on and adapts. It also supports all variants of the line card. The line card Cisco IOS image is bundled in the GRP Cisco IOS image.	execute-on slot slot-number show version or attach slot-number show version\| exit
SQE Microcode	Silicon queuing engine microcode on the line card that controls the data paths on the line card. A different microcode image might exist for each type of line card and different microcode images support different Cisco IOS features (for example, weighted fair queueing). There is a default microcode image that is used when no special features or requirements exist. The SQE microcode is bundled with the line card Cisco IOS image.	execute-on slot slot-number show controllers tofab bma microcode execute-on slot slot-number show controllers frfab bma microcode or attach slot-number show controllers tofab bma microcode show controllers frfab bma microcode exit
ATM OC-12 SAR Microcode	Microcode from the vendor of the SAR-622 chip used on the ATM line card. The ATM SAR microcode is bundled with the line card Cisco IOS image.	execute-on slot slot-number show controllers atm or attach slot-number show controllers atm exit
GRP Field Diagnostic Image	Image that runs on the GRP when field diagnostics are run with the diag command.	None
Line Card Field Diagnostic Image	Image that runs on the line card when field diagnostics are run with the diag command.	None
GRP ROM Monitor	The ROM monitor is responsible for booting the system from the local Flash devices. It is loaded into the Flash ROM on the GRP when the board is manufactured.	show version
Line Card ROM Monitor	The ROM monitor is responsible for booting the line card via the MBus. It is loaded into the Flash ROM on the line card when the board is manufactured.	execute-on slot slot-number show version or attach slot-number show version exit
ROM Monitor Library Image	Image that allows the GRP ROM monitor to access the internal Flash bank and PCMCIA Flash cards. It is bundled with the GRP Cisco IOS image so it can be put on the Flash cards when they are formatted. The GRP ROM monitor gets the ROM monitor image from the Flash device before accessing it.	None

¹ You can also get version information from the first LED message.

Configuration Example

In a typical Internet service provider environment, the Cisco 12000 series routers reside within the core of the network and can support as many as 44 OC-3/STM-1 IP over SONET/SDH optical links to Cisco 7500 series routers or aggregation devices. Below is a typical configuration file for the Cisco 12012. Important configuration commands are bolded. In this example, a Cisco 12000 series router called GSR-A connects to the Internet backbone through interface POS11/0, connects to a second Cisco 12000 series router through interface POS7/0, and connects to Cisco 7500 series routers through interfaces POS4/0, POS4/1, POS4/2, and POS4/3. In addition, GSR-A also has a connection to a workstation through interface E0 for TFTP functions only (no routing is performed).

Note In this example, SONET payload scrambling is enabled with the pos scramble-atm command. SONET payload scrambling applies a self-synchronous scrambler (x^43+1) to the Synchronous Payload Envelope (SPE) of the interface to ensure sufficient bit transition density. Both sides of the connection must be configured using the pos scramble-atm command. Currently, when connecting to a Cisco 7500 series router and using the pos scramble-atm command, you must specify the crc 16 command rather than the crc 32 command.

Note Distributed Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) is automatically enabled. Enable other CEF features to meet your network configuration requirements.

Command Reference

This section documents new or modified commands. All other commands used with this feature are documented in the Cisco IOS Release 11.2 command references.

Note The pos internal-clock interface configuration command has been replaced by the clock source interface configuration command. The pos transmitter-delay interface configuration command has been replaced by the transmitter-delay interface configuration command.

attach

To access the Cisco IOS software image on a line card to monitor and maintain information on the line card, use the attach privileged EXEC command. To exit from the Cisco IOS software image on the line card and return to the Cisco IOS image on the GRP card, use the exit command.

attach slot-number

Syntax Description

slot-number

Slot number of the line card you want to connect to. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008. If the slot number is omitted, you are prompted for the slot number.

Default

Access to the Cisco IOS software image running on the GRP card.

Command Mode

Privileged EXEC

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

Use the attach EXEC command to get specific information about a line card.

After you connect to the Cisco IOS image on the line card using the attach command, the prompt changes to "LC-Slotx#," where x is the slot number of the line card.

You can also use the execute-on slot privileged EXEC command to execute commands on one or all line cards.

Note Do not execute the config command from the Cisco IOS software image on the line card.

Note Because not all statistics are maintained on the line cards, the output from some of the show commands might not be consistent.

Example

The following example connects to the Cisco IOS image running on the line card in slot 9, gets a list of valid show commands, and returns the Cisco IOS image running on the GRP:


Router# attach 9

atm sonet

To set the mode of operation and thus control type of the ATM cell used for cell-rate decoupling on the SONET PLIM, use the atm sonet interface configuration command. To restore the default Synchronous Transport Signal level 12, concatenated (STS-12c) operation, use the no form of this command.

atm sonet [stm-4]
no atm sonet [stm-4]

Syntax Description

stm-4

(Optional) Synchronous Digital Hierarchy/Synchronous Transport Signal level 4 (SDH/STM-4) operation (ITU-T specification).

Default

STS-12c

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

This command was modified in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to add the stm-4 keyword.

Use STM-4 in applications where SDH framing is required.

Use the default (STS-12c) in applications where the ATM switch requires "unassigned cells" for rate adaptation. An unassigned cell contains 32 zeros.

Example

The following example sets the mode of operation to SONET STM-4 on ATM interface 3/0:


Router(config)# interface atm 3/0
Router(config-if)# atm sonet stm-4
Router(config-if)# end
Router#

clear card-message

To remove the user-specified message that is displayed on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards and revert to the normal status message for the line card, use the clear card-message privileged EXEC command.

clear card-message {all | slot slot-number}

Syntax Description

all	Clears the user-specified LED message on all line cards.
slot slot-number	Clears the user-specified LED message on a specific line card. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008.

Command Mode

Privileged EXEC

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

To specify the message that is displayed on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards, use the set card-message global configuration command.

Example

The following example clears any user-specified message from all line cards.


Router# clear card-message all
Router#

Related Commands

set card-message

clear logging

To clear messages from the logging buffer, use the clear logging privileged EXEC command.

clear logging {all | slot slot-number} [counts | messages]

Syntax Description

all	Clears the logging buffer for all slots.
slot slot-number	Clears the logging buffer for a specific slot. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008.
counts	(Optional) Clears the message counters only from the logging buffer. The messages are kept.
messages	(Optional) Clears the messages from logging buffer (that is, discard all messages in the log).

Default

If no options are specified, clear the counters and messages from the logging buffer for all line cards.

Command Mode

Privileged EXEC

Usage Guidelines

This command was modified in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to include the all, slot, counts, and messages keywords.

Use the show logging command to display logging information.

Example

In the following example, the counters and messages are cleared from the logging buffer on all line cards. The show logging command shows the information before and after the log is cleared.


Router# show logging

diag

To perform field diagnostics on a line card, on the Gigabit Route Processor (GRP), on the Switch Fabric Cards (SFC), and on the Clock Scheduler Card (CSC) in the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers, use the diag privileged EXEC command. To disable field diagnostics on a line card, use the no form of this command.

diag slot-number [halt | previous | post | verbose [wait] | wait]
no diag slot-number

Syntax Description

slot-number	Slot number of the line card you want to test. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008. Slot numbers for the CSC are 16 and 17 and for the FSC are18, 19, and 20.
halt	(Optional) Stops the field diagnostic testing on the line card.
previous	(Optional) Displays previous test results (if any) for the line card.
post	(Optional) Initiates a EPROM-based extended power-on self-test (EPOST) only. The EPOST test suite is not as comprehensive as the field diagnostics, and a pass/fail message is the only message displayed on the console.
verbose [wait]	(Optional) Enables the maximum status messages to be displayed on the console. By default, only the minimum status messages are displayed on the console. If you specify the optional wait keyword, the Cisco IOS software is not be automatically reloaded on the line card after the test completes successfully.
wait	(Optional) Stops the automatic reloading of the Cisco IOS software on the line card after the successful completion of the field diagnostic testing. If you use this keyword, you must use the microcode reload slot global configuration command, or manually remove and insert the line card (to power it up) in the slot so that the GRP will recognize the line card and download the Cisco IOS software image to the line card.

Default

No field diagnostics tests are performed on the line card.

Command Mode

Privileged EXEC

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

Note The diag command must be executed from the GRP main console port.

Perofrm diagnostics on the CSC only if a redendant CSC is in the router.

Diagnostics will stop and ask you for confirmation before altering the router's configuration. For example, running diagnostics on a SFC or CSC will cause the fabric to go from full bandwidth to one quarter bandwidth. Bandwidth is not affected by GRP or line card diagnostics.

The field diagnostic software image is bundled with the Cisco IOS software and is downloaded automatically from the GRP to the target line card prior to testing.

Caution Performing field diagnostics on a line card stops all activity on the line card. Before the diag EXEC command begins running diagnostics, you are prompted to confirm the request to perform field diagnostics on the line card.

In normal mode, if a test fails, the title of the failed test is displayed on the console. However, not all tests that are preformed are displayed. To view all the tests that are performed, use the verbose keyword.

After all diagnostic tests are completed on the line card, a PASSED or TEST FAILURE message is displayed. If the line card sends a PASSED message, the Cisco IOS software image on the line card is automatically reloaded unless the wait keyword is specified. If the line card sends a TEST FAILURE message, the Cisco IOS software image on the line card is not automatically reloaded.

If you want to reload the line card after it fails diagnostic testing, use the microcode reload slot global configuration command.

Note When you stop the field diagnostic test, the line card remains down (that is, in an unbooted state). In most cases, you stopped the testing because you need to remove the line card or replace the line card. If that is not the case, and you want to bring the line card back up (that is, online), you must use the microcode reload global configuration command or power cycle the line card.

If the line card fails the test, the line card is defective and should be replaced. In future releases this might not be the case because DRAM and SDRAM SIMM modules might be field replaceable units. For example, if the DRAM test failed you might only need to replace the DRAM on the line card.

For more information, refer to the Cisco 12000 series installation and configuration guides.

Examples

The following example shows the output when field diagnostics are performed on the line card in slot 3. After the line card passes all field diagnostic tests, the Cisco IOS software is automatically reloaded on the card. Before starting the diagnostic tests, you must confirm the request to perform these tests on the line card because all activity on the line card is halted. The total/indiv. timeout set to 600/220 sec. message indicates that 600 seconds are allowed to perform all field diagnostics tests, and that no single test should exceed 220 seconds to complete.

exception linecard

To enable storing of crash information for a line card and optionally specify the type and amount of information stored, use the exception linecard global configuration command. To disable the storing of crash information for the line card, use the no form of this command.

exception linecard {all | slot slot-number} [corefile filename | main-memory size [k | m] |
queue-ram size [k | m] | rx-buffer size [k | m] | sqe-register-rx | sqe-register-tx |
tx-buffer size [k | m]]
no exception linecard

Syntax Description

all	Stores crash information for all line cards.
slot slot- number	Stores crash information for the line card in the specified slot. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008.
corefile filename	(Optional) Stores the crash information in the specified file in NVRAM. The default file name is hostname-core-slot-number (for example, c12012-core-8).
main-memory size	(Optional) Stores the crash information for the main memory on the line card and specify the size of the crash information. Size of the memory to store is 0 to 268435456.
queue-ram size	(Optional) Stores the crash information for the queue RAM memory on the line card and specify the size of the crash information. Size of the memory to store can be from 0 to 1048576.
rx-buffer size tx-buffer size	(Optional) Stores the crash information for the receive and transmit buffer on the line card and specify the size of the crash information. Size of the memory to store can be from 0 to 67108864.
sqe-register-rx sqe-register-tx	(Optional) Stores crash information for the receive or transmit silicon queueing engine registers on the line card.
k m	(Optional) The k option multiplies the specified size by 1K (1024), and the m option multiplies the specified size by 1M (1024*1024).

Default

No crash information is stored for the line card.

If enabled with no options, the default is to store 256 MB of main memory.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

Use the exception linecard global configuration command only when directed by a technical support representative and only enable options that the technical support representative requests you to enable. Technical support representatives need to be able to look at the crash information from the line card to troubleshoot serious problems on the line card. The crash information contains all the line card memory information including the main memory and transmit and receive buffer information.

Caution Use caution when enabling the exception linecard global configuration command. Enabling all options could cause a large amount (150 to 250 MB) of crash information to be sent to the server

Example

The following example enables the storing of crash information for line card 8. By default, 256 MB of main memory is stored.


Router(config)# exception linecard slot 8
Router(config)# end
Router#

execute-on

To execute commands remotely on a line card, use the execute-on slot privileged EXEC command.

execute-on {slot slot-number | all} command

Syntax Description

slot-number	Executes the command on the line card in the specified slot. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 on the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 on the Cisco 12008.
all	Executes the command on all line cards.
command	Cisco IOS command to execute on the line card.

Command Mode

Privileged EXEC

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

Use this command to execute a command on one or all line cards to monitor and maintain information on one or more line cards.

You can use the execute-on privileged EXEC command only from Cisco IOS software running on the GRP card.

Note In Cisco IOS Release 11.2(9)GS, the execute-on command does not work properly on commands that require input, the "more" autopaging mechanism does not function, and the line card help is not available.

Note Because not all statistics are maintained on the line cards, the output from some of the show commands might not be consistent.

You can also use the attach privileged EXEC command, but using the execute-on slot command saves you some steps. For example, first you must use the attach command to connect you to the Cisco IOS software running on the line card, next you must issue the command, and finally you must disconnect from the line card to return to the Cisco IOS software running on the GRP card. With the execute-on slot command, you can perform three steps with one command.

In addition, the execute-on all command allows you to perform the same command on all line cards.

Example

The following example shows how to execute the show controllers command on the line card in slot 4:


Router# execute-on slot 4 show controllers

logging linecard

To log messages to an internal buffer on a line card, use the logging linecard global configuration command. To cancel the use of the internal buffer on the line cards, use the no form of this command.

logging linecard [size | message-level]
no logging linecard

Syntax Description

size

(Optional) Size of the buffer used for each line card. The range is 4096 to 65536 bytes. The default is 8 KB.

message-level

(Optional) Limits the logging of messages displayed on the console terminal to a specified level. The message level can be:

· alerts--Immediate action needed

· critical--Critical conditions

· debugging--Debugging messages

· emergencies--System is unusable

· errors--Error conditions

· informational--Informational messages

· notifications--Normal but significant conditions

· warnings--Warning conditions

Default

The Cisco IOS software logs messages to the internal buffer on the GRP card.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

Specifying a message level causes messages at that level and numerically lower levels to be stored in the internal buffer on the line cards. Table 2 lists the message levels and associated numerical level. For example, if you specify a message level of critical, all critical, alert, and emergency messages will be logged.

**Table 2: Message Levels**
Level Name	Level
emergencies	0
alerts	1
critical	2
errors	3
warnings	4
notifications	5
informational	6
debugging	7

To display the messages that are logged in the buffer, use the EXEC command show logging slot. The first message displayed is the oldest message in the buffer.

Do not make the buffer size too large because the router could run out of memory for other tasks. You can use the show memory EXEC command to view the free processor memory on the router; however, this is the maximum available and should not be approached.

Example

The following example enables logging to an internal buffer on the line cards using the default buffer size and logging warning, error, critical, alert, and emergency messages:


Router(config)# logging linecard warnings
Router(config)# end
Router#

microcode (Cisco IOS image)

To load a Cisco IOS software image on a line card from Flash memory or the GRP card on a Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Router, use the microcode global configuration command. To load the microcode bundled with the GRP system image, use the no form of this command.

microcode interface {flash file-id [slot] | system [slot]}
no microcode interface [flash file-id [slot] | system [slot]]

Syntax Description

interface	One of the following interface names: oc12-atm, oc12-pos, or oc3-pos-4.
flash	Loads the image from the Flash file system.
file-id	Specifies the device and filename of the image file to download. A colon (:) must separate the device and filename (for example, slot0:gsr-p-mz). Valid devices are as follows: · bootflash--Internal Flash memory. · slot0--First PCMCIA slot. · slot1--Second PCMCIA slot.
slot	(Optional) Slot number of the line card that you want to copy the software image to. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008. If you do not specify a slot number, the Cisco IOS software image is downloaded on all line cards.
system	Loads the image from the software image on the GRP card.

Default

The default is to load the image from the GRP card.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

This command was modified in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to load the Cisco IOS software image onto a line card in the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

In addition to the Cisco IOS image that resides on the GRP card, each line card on a Cisco 12000 series has a Cisco IOS image. When the router is reloaded, the specified Cisco IOS image is loaded onto the GRP card, and that image is automatically dowloaded to all the line cards.

Normally, you want the same Cisco IOS image on the GRP card and all line cards. However, if you want to upgrade a line card with a new version of microcode for testing or to fix a defect, you might need to load a Cisco IOS image that is different from the one on the line card. Additionally, you might need to load a new image on the line card to work around a problem that is affecting only one of the line cards.

To load a Cisco IOS image on a line card, first use the copy tftp command to download the Cisco IOS image to a slot on one of the PCMCIA Flash memory cards. After you have downloaded the Cisco IOS image on the Flash memory card, use the microcode command to download the image to the line card followed by the microcode reload command to start the image. To verify that the correct image is running on the line card, use the execute-on slot slot show version command.

For information on how to load Cisco IOS images, refer to the "Loading Images and Configuration Files" chapter in the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide. For additional information, refer to the "Observing System Startup and Performing a Basic Configuration" chapter in the Cisco 12000 series installation and configuration guides.

Examples

In the following example, the Cisco IOS software image in slot 0: is downloaded to the line card in slot 10. This is the software image that is used when the system is booted, when a line card is inserted or removed, or when the microcode reload global configuration command is issued.

To verify that the correct version is loaded, use the execute-on slot 10 show version command.


Router(config)# microcode oc3-POS-4 flash slot0:fip.v141-7 10
Router(config)# microcode reload 10
Router(config)# exit

pos flag

To set the SONET overhead bytes in the frame header to meet a specific standards requirement or to ensure interoperability with another vendor's equipment, use the pos flag interface configuration command. To remove the setting of the SONET overhead bytes, use the no form of this command.

pos flag {c2 | j0 | s1s0} value
no pos flag {c2 | j0 | s1s0} value

Syntax Description

c2 value

Path signal identifier used to identify the payload content type. Use the following values to tell the SONET transmission equipment the payload type:

· For PPP (or HDLC when required), use 0xCF (this is the default).

· For ATM, use 0x13.

· For other equipment, use any non-zero value.

The byte value can be 0 to 255.

j0 value

Section trace byte (formerly the C1 byte). For interoperability with SDH equipment in Japan, use the value 0x1. The byte value can be 0 to 255.

sls0 value

S1 and S0 bits (bits 5 and 6 of the H1 #1 payload pointer byte). Use the following values to tell the SONET transmission equipment the SS bit:

· For OC-3c, use 0 (this is the default).

· For AU-4 container in SDH, use 2.

The S1 and S0 bits can be 0 to 3. Values 1 and 3 are undefined.

Default

The default c2 value is 0xCF, and the default sls0 value is 0.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

pos scramble-atm

To enable SONET payload scrambling on a POS interface, use the pos scramble-atm interface command. To disable scrambling, use the no form of this command.

pos scramble-atm
no pos scramble-atm

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Default

Disabled.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

SONET payload scrambling applies a self-synchronous scrambler (x^43+1) to the Synchronous Payload Envelope (SPE) of the interface to ensure sufficient bit transition density.

Both ends of the connection must use the same scrambling algorithm.

When enabling POS scrambling on a VIP2 POSIP on the Cisco 7500 series that has a hardware revision of 1.5 or higher, you can specify CRC 16 only (that is, CRC 32 is currently not supported). To determine the hardware version of the POSIP, use the show diag command. The POS interface on the Cisco 12000 series has no restrictions.

To determine whether scrambling is enabled on the interface, use the show interface pos command or show startup-config command.

Example

The following example enables scrambling on the interface:


Router(config)# interface pos 3/0
Router(config-if)# pos scramble-atm
Router(config-if)# no shutdown
Router(config-if)# end
Router#

set card-message

To specify the message that is displayed on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards, use the set card-message privileged EXEC command. To remove the message, use the clear card-message global command.

set card-message {all | slot slot-number} [expire seconds] [blink seconds] message

Syntax Description

all	Specifies that the LED message is set on all line cards.
slot slot-number	Specifies that the LED message is set on a specific line card. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008.
expire seconds	(Optional) Specifies how long the message is displayed on the front panel LED. The range is 0 to 31536000 seconds. When you select 0, the message remains on the LED until you clear it by using the clear card-message command. When the time expires, the user-specified message is removed, and the LED displays the status message based on the line card's last state.
blink seconds	(Optional) Specifies how often the message blinks (that is, goes on and off) in seconds. The range is 1 to 10 seconds. If blink is not specified, the message does not blink.
message	Specifies the text to display on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards. The message can be up to eight alphanumeric characters (four characters per line).

Default

System LED message is displayed.

Command Mode

Privileged EXEC

Usage Guidelines

This command was added in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

The user-specified message is also displayed in the show diag command output.

To revert to the normal status message for the line card, use the clear card-message global configuration command.

Example

The following example sets the message USER MSG to display on the LED on line card 3. This message blinks every two seconds.


Router# set card-message slot 3 blink 2 USER MSG

show environment

To display temperature, voltage, and blower information on the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Router, use the show environment privileged EXEC command.

Syntax Description

alarms	(Optional) Displays the alarm contact information.
all	(Optional) Displays a detailed listing of the power supplies, temperature readings, voltage readings, and blower speeds.
fans	(Optional) Displays blower and fan information.
hardware	(Optional) Displays hardware-specific information.
last	(Optional) Displays information on the last measurement made.
leds	(Optional) Displays the status of the MBus LEDs on the clock and scheduler cards and switch fabric cards.
power-supply	(Optional) Displays power supply voltage and current information.
table	(Optional) Displays the temperature, voltage, and blower thresholds.
temperature	(Optional) Displays temperature information.
voltages	(Optional) Displays voltage information.

Default

If no options are specified, the current environmental parameters are displayed.

Command Mode

Privileged EXEC

Usage Guidelines

This command was modified in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS to include the alarms, fans, hardware, leds, power-supply, temperature, and voltages keywords and to provide sample output for the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

Once a minute a routine is run that gets environmental measurements from sensors and stores the output into a buffer. This buffer is displayed on the console when show environment is invoked.

If a measurement exceeds desired margins, but has not exceeded fatal margins, a warning message is printed to the system console. The system software queries the sensors for measurements once a minute, but warnings for a given test point are printed at most once every hour for sensor readings in the warning range and once every 5 minutes for sensor readings in the critical range. If a measurement is out of line within these time segments, an automatic warning message appears on the console. As noted, you can query the environmental status with the show environment command at any time to determine whether a measurement is at the warning or critical tolerance.

If a shutdown occurs because of detection of fatal environmental margins, the last measured value from each sensor is stored in internal nonvolatile memory.

For environmental specifications, refer to the hardware installation and configuration publication for your individual chassis.

If the Cisco 12000 series exceeds environmental conditions, a message similar to the one below is displayed on the console:


%GSR_ENV-2-WARNING: Slot 3 Hot Sensor Temperature exceeds 40 deg C;
Check cooling systems

Note Blower temperatures that exceed environmental conditions do not generate a warning message.

Sample Displays

The following examples are for the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.

The following is sample output from the show environment command for a Cisco 12012. Slots 0 through 11 are the line cards, slots 16 and 17 are the clock and scheduler cards, slots 18 through 20 are the switch fabric cards, slots 24 through 27 are the power supplies, and slots 28 and 29 are the blowers. An "NA" in the table means that no values was returned. In some cases it is because the equipment is not supported for that environmental parameter (for example, the power supply and blowers in slots 24, 26, 28, and 29 do not have a 3V power supply so an NA is displayed).

Table 3 describes the fields shown in the output and lists the equipment that is supported by each environmental parameter. If an "NA" is listed in the field and the equipment is supported, it means that the reading could not be obtained. Try the command again.

**Table 3: Show Environment Field Descriptions**
Field	Description
Slot #	Slot number of the equipment. On the Cisco 12012, slots 0 through 11 are the line cards, slots 16 and 17 are the clock and scheduler cards, slots 18 through 20 are the switch fabric cards, slots 24 through 27 are the power supplies, and slots 28 and 29 are the blowers.
3V (mv)	Measures the 3-volt power supply on the card. The 3-volt power supply is on the line cards, GRP card, clock and scheduler cards, and switch fabric cards.
5V (mv)	Measures the 5-volt power supply on the card. The 5-volt power supply is on the line cards, GRP card, and power supplies.
MBUS 5V (mv)	Measures the 5-volt MBus on the card. The 5-volt MBus is on all equipment.
Hot Sensor (deg C)	Measures the temperature at the hot sensor on the card. The hot sensor is on the line cards, GRP card, clock and scheduler cards, switch fabric cards, and blowers.
Inlet Sensor (deg C)	Measures the current inlet temperature on the card. The inlet sensor is on the line cards, GRP card, clock and scheduler cards, switch fabric cards, and power supplies.
48V (Volt)	Measures the DC power supplies.
AMP_48 (Amp)	Measures the AC power supplies.
Fan 0, Fan 1, Fan 2	Measures the fan speed in rotations per minute.

The following is sample output from the show environment all command for the Cisco 12008. Slots 0 through 7 are the line cards, slots 16 and 17 are the clock scheduler cards (the clock scheduler cards control the fans), slots 18 through 20 are the switch fabric cards, and slots 24 and 26 are the power supplies. The Cisco 12008 does not support slots 25, 27, 28, and 29. An "NA" in the table means that no values was returned. In some cases it is because the equipment is not supported for that environmental parameter (for example, the power supplies in slots 24 and 26 do not have a hot sensor, so an NA is displayed).

    0 messages logged
Router#

Table 4 describes significant fields shown in the display.

**Table 4: Show Logging Field Descriptions**
Field	Description
Syslog logging	When enabled, system logging messages are sent to a UNIX host that acts as a syslog server; that is, it captures and saves the messages.
Console logging	If enabled, states the level; otherwise, this field displays disabled.
Monitor logging	Minimum level of severity required for a log message to be sent to a monitor terminal (not the console).
Trap logging	Minimum level of severity required for a log message to be sent to a syslog server.
SNMP logging	Shows whether SNMP logging is enabled and the number of messages logged, and the retransmission interval.

The following is sample output from the show logging history command:


Router# show logging history

Router#

Table 5 describes the significant fields shown in the display.

**Table 5: Show Logging History Field Descriptions**
Field	Description
maximum table entry	Number of messages that can be stored in the history table. Set with the logging history size command.
saving level notifications or higher	Level of messages that are stored in the history table and sent to the SNMP server (if SNMP notification is enabled). Set with the logging history command.
messages ignored	Number of messages not stored in the history table because the severity level is greater than that specified with the logging history command.
dropped	Number of messages that could not be processed due to lack of system resources. Dropped messages do not appear in the history table and are not sent to the SNMP server.
table entries flushed	Number of messages that have been removed from the history table to make room for newer messages.
SNMP notifications	Whether syslog traps of the appropriate level are sent to the SNMP server. Syslog traps are either enabled or not enabled through the snmp-server enable command.
entry number	Number of the message entry in the history table.
SYS-5-CONFIG_I Configured from console by console	Cisco IOS syslog message consisting of the facility name (SYS) which indicates where the message came from, the severity level (5), the message name (CONFIG_I), and the message text.
timestamp	Time, based on the router's up time, that the message was generated.

The following is sample output from the show logging summary command for the Cisco 12012. A number in the column indicates that the syslog contains that many messages for the line card. For example, line card in slot 9 has 1 error message, 4 warning messages, and 47 notification messages.

Debug Commands

This section documents the following new debug commands. All other debug commands used with this feature are documented in the Cisco IOS Release 11.2 Debug Command Reference.

debug gsr mbus

To enable the display of MBus messages if a line card fails to come up properly, use the debug gsr mbus EXEC command. Use the no form of the command to disable debugging output.

[no] debug gsr mbus

Usage Guidelines

This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS.

Use the the debug gsr mbus command if the line card fails to come up (that is, does not reach the "Line Card Enabled" state when using the show gsr command). Reload the line card and review the output that provides a chronology of the boot process. If a lot of MBus errors are being generated, enable the debug gsr mbus command. Additional information can be obtained with the show mbus counters and show mbus can-error commands.

Sample Display

Figure 1 shows sample output from the debug gsr mbus command when microcode is reloaded on the line card in slot 4.

debug ipc errors

To enable warnings and errors from the Interprocess Communications (IPC) on the line card or Gigabit Route Processor (GRP), use the debug ipc errors EXEC command. Use the no form of the command to disable debugging output.

[no] debug ipc errors

Usage Guidelines

This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS.

Use the debug ipc errors command if you observe IPC error messages or IPC timeout messages and the error counters are increasing when you use the show ipc statistics command.

Caution On the GRP, if there are a lot of IPC timeout error messages or messages such as Unicast send timeout, verify other statistics with the show controller csar and show controller fia command to further diagnose the problem before enabling the debug ipc errors command.

To use the debug ipc errors on a line card, use the if-con slot-number or exec slot slot-number command. It is safer to use the if-con command rather than the exec slot command to enable the debug ipc errors command on a line card. If there are IPC problems between the GRP and the line card, the exec slot command might fail or wait a long time for the line card to respond.

Caution On the line card, before enabling the debug ipc errors command, use the show ip statistics command. If the error counters in the show ipc statistics command increase at a fast rate, enabling the debug ipc errors command might generate a lot of output. Too many log messages from the line card might cause the messages to get dropped over the MBus. In this case, it might be useful to use the show controller frfab queues command and check whether the number of elements in the non-IPC free queues or IPC queue is zero. If the number of elements in the non-IPC free queues or IPC queue is zero, it could indicate that the buffers are exhausted.

Sample Display

Figure 2 shows sample output from the debug ipc errors command.

Cannot create named IPC Master:Init port	GRP cannot create port. Port name: IPC Master: Init. You can verify the port name with the show ipc ports command.
IPC: Invalid message received from master 0200	Slave GRP initialization failure because of invalid message from master GRP. The message type is 0200.
Seat exists already (IPC Master:Init, 09000200)	GRP cannot initialize slot as the seat already exists. Seat name: IPC Master: Init. You can verify the seat name with the show ipc nodes command. The seat id is 09000200.

debug mbus system

To enable the display of low-level mbus messages, use the debug mbus system EXEC command. Use the no form of the command to disable debugging output.

[no] debug mbus system

Usage Guidelines

This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 GS.

The debug mbus system command is useful for low-level debug of the MBus system.

Enable the debug mbus system command if you are getting a lot of MBus errors. Additional information can be obtained with the show mbus counters and show mbus can-error commands.

Enabling the debug mbus system command typically displays the CAN message that generated the error condition. The debug mbus system is usually restricted to developers. MBus errors typically manifest as errors in the applications running over the MBus. You can enable debug for that particular application to get more information (for example, debug gsr mbus is one such application debug).

Sample Display

Figure 3 shows sample output from the debug mbus system command. In this example, the first packet of a new message was received from a selected slot/stream combination while there was already a message in progress. The previous message remains incomplete and is dropped. The MBus system software allows only one message to be sent from a particular slot/stream combination at any given instant.
