Important Information PRP Redundancy When two PRPs are installed in a Cisco 12000 Series Router, one PRP is the active PRP and the other is a backup, or standby, PRP. If the active PRP fails or is removed from the system, the standby PRP detects the failure and initiates a switchover. During a switchover, the standby PRP assumes control of the router, connects with the network interfaces, and activates the local network management interface and system console.
Important Information Note Output from the show version command on a PRP-2 card running on software releases prior to 12.0(30)S may display some incorrect information. This is only a display issue and it occurs because the software does not recognize some of the hardware on the card. This does not affect the functionality of the PRP-2. For example, the following is incorrect output from the show version command on release 12.

Product Overview SDRAM SDRAM stores routing tables, protocols, and network accounting applications, and runs the Cisco IOS software. The default PRP-1 configuration includes 512 MB of error checking and correction (ECC) SDRAM. DIMM upgrades of 512 MB and 1 GB are available for the PRP-1. You cannot mix memory sizes. If two DIMMS are installed, they must be the same memory size. The default PRP-2 configuration includes 1 GB of ECC SDRAM. DIMM upgrades of 1 GB and 2 GB are available for the PRP-2.
Product Overview Flash Memory Flash memory allows you to remotely load and store multiple Cisco IOS software and microcode images. You can download a new image over the network or from a local server and then add the new image to Flash memory or replace the existing files. You then can boot the routers either manually or automatically from any of the stored images.
Product Overview The PRP-2 has the following LED indicators: • Two Flash disk activity LEDs, one for each Flash disk slot (labeled SLOT-0 and SLOT-1)—Indicate when the Flash disk slot is accessed.
Product Overview Soft Reset Switch A soft reset switch provides a reset to the processor software on the PRP. You access the soft reset switch through a small opening in the PRP faceplate. To depress the switch, insert a paper clip or a similar object into the opening. Caution The soft reset switch is not a mechanism for resetting the PRP and reloading the IOS image. It is intended for software development use.
Product Overview Asynchronous Serial Ports The PRP has two asynchronous serial ports, the console and auxiliary ports. These allow you to connect external serial devices to monitor and manage the system. Both ports use RJ-45 receptacles. The console port provides a data circuit-terminating equipment (DCE) interface for connecting a console terminal. The auxiliary port provides a data terminal equipment (DTE) interface and supports flow control.
Preparing for Installation Compact Flash Disk The PRP-2 optionally includes a 1-GB compact flash disk that is installed on the PRP-2 board. Note Non-Cisco compact flash disks are not supported.
Preparing for Installation • Cisco equipment operates safely when it is used in accordance with its specifications and product usage instructions. • If you plan to replace a PRP, back up your current configuration file to a remote server or to Flash memory before you remove the PRP. This prevents you from having to reenter all your current configuration information manually. To back up the file, copy your configuration file to a Flash disk or access a remote server.
Removing and Installing a PRP Required Tools and Equipment You need the following tools and parts to remove and install a PRP: • Flat-blade or Phillips screwdriver • ESD-preventive wrist strap and instructions • Antistatic mat, foam pad, or bag for the removed PRP. Place the removed PRP into an antistatic bag if you plan to return it to the factory, or on an antistatic mat or foam if you are replacing components and will reinstall the PRP.
Removing and Installing a PRP Note The procedures in the following sections use illustrations of a Cisco 12404 Internet Router to support the descriptions of installing and removing a route processor card. The card cages of Cisco 12000 Series Routers differ in many ways. However, the process of installing and removing a route processor card are basically the same across the entire chassis line. Therefore, separate procedures and illustrations for each chassis are not included in this publication.
Removing and Installing a PRP Figure 5 illustrates the PRP installed in a chassis.
Removing and Installing a PRP Figure 6 shows the ejector levers in detail.
Removing and Installing a PRP Step 6 Place your thumbs on the ends of each of the ejector levers and simultaneously pull them both away from the PRP faceplate (in the direction shown in Figure 6a) to release the PRP from the upper card cage slot and to dislodge the PRP edge connector from the backplane. Step 7 Grasp the PRP faceplate handle with one hand and pull the PRP straight out of the slot, keeping your other hand under the PRP to guide it. Keep the PRP edge connector parallel to the backplane.
Removing and Installing a PRP Caution Avoid touching the PRP printed circuit board, components, or any edge connector pins. Step 4 Place the bus-connector edge of the PRP in the appropriate slot and align the notches along the edge of the carrier with the grooves at the top and bottom of the slot. Step 5 While keeping the PRP edge connector parallel to the backplane, carefully slide the carrier into the slot until the PRP faceplate makes contact with the ejector levers, then stop.
Checking the Installation Checking the Installation This section assists you in confirming that the PRP is installed successfully and includes the following sections: • PRP Boot Process, page 26 • Starting the System and Observing Initial Conditions, page 27 • Verifying Interface Status, page 31 PRP Boot Process The following sequence describes a typical PRP boot process: 1. System power is turned on. 2. MBus module receives +5 VDC and starts executing MBus software. 3.
Checking the Installation Starting the System and Observing Initial Conditions This section describes the initial system startup processes and procedures. To start your system, follow these steps: Step 1 Turn on each installed power supply by turning its system power switch to the on (|) position. For AC-input power supplies, the green AC OK LED should go on. For DC-input power supplies, the green input OK LED should go on. For both types of power supplies, the output fail LED should be off.
Checking the Installation Figure 7 PRP Alphanumeric Display LEDs (Vertical View) PROCESSOR 1 (PRP-1) 1 70694 2 1 Upper (or left if horizontal) LED Display Table 2 2 Lower (or right if horizontal) LED Display PRP Alphanumeric Display LED Sequences LED Display Description MROM nnnn PRP microcode loads into MBus random-access memory (RAM); where nnnn is the microcode version. For example, Microcode Version 1.17 displays as 0117.
Checking the Installation Step 4 During the line card boot process, which occurs immediately after the PRP boots, observe the alphanumeric display LEDs on each line card. The system attempts to boot identical line cards in parallel. Furthermore, the system boots line cards as soon as they are powered on and become available for a system boot. The physical location of the alphanumeric display LEDs on the line cards is the same as on the PRP, which is shown in Figure 7.
Checking the Installation Caution • b flash disk0: filename—Boots the file filename from the Flash disk in Flash card slot 0 • b flash disk1: filename—Boots the file filename from the Flash disk in Flash card slot 1 The b flash disk0: and b flash disk1: commands are only used from the ROM monitor (Rommon>) prompt if the system fails to load normally. Do not use these commands from the router (Router>) prompt.
Checking the Installation The interface-specific LEDs on line cards might not go on until after you configure the line card interfaces. To verify correct operation of each interface, complete the first-time setup procedures and configuration, then refer to the LED descriptions in the configuration notes for each line card to check the status of the interfaces.

Upgrading to the PRP Upgrading to the PRP Without Rebooting the Router To upgrade to the PRP from the GRP without interruption of service, you must have support for High Availability in your router. This means that two GRPs must be installed in the router and the redundancy must be set to either SSO or RPR+ mode. To configure the redundancy, use the redundancy command in global configuration mode. To view the redundancy configuration on the RPs, use the show redundancy command.
Upgrading to the PRP BOOTLDR = Configuration register = 0x2102 Peer Processor Information : ---------------------------Standby Location = slot 4 Current Software state = STANDBY HOT Uptime in current state = 2 hours, 13 minutes Image Version = Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) GS Software (GSR-P-M), Version 12.0(26)S, EARLY DEPLOYMENT RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) TAC Support: http://www.cisco.com/tac Copyright (c) 1986-2003 by cisco Systems, Inc.
Upgrading to the PRP Step 4 If the Cisco IOS version is not the same as the one running on the GRPs, delete the image from the disk using the delete disk1: filename command (or the delete stby-disk1:filename command if the Flash disk is in the standby RP). If the image is correct, continue with Step 7. Note Step 5 Before you delete the image, verify that you have a copy of this image on another disk or at another location.
Upgrading to the PRP Note The PRP and GRP must both be running the same Cisco IOS version; otherwise, the redundancy will revert to RPR mode and there may be traffic disruption. Step 12 Remove the active GRP. Because the router is configured for High Availability (SSO or RPR+ mode), the switchover to the PRP will take advantage of the High Availability feature and there will be minimum disruption in operation.
Upgrading to the PRP Note The PRP-2 does not require an RP ROM monitor upgrade before Cisco IOS Software Release 12.0(30)S. If you attempt this upgrade on a PRP-2 using a prior software release, you will receive the following error message: Error: Unknown Flash Device type! GRP ROM monitor upgrade won't continue Upgrading the RP ROM Monitor Using Cisco IOS Release 12.0(24)S or Later New functionality was introduced in Cisco IOS Software Release 12.
Upgrading to the PRP Step 6 Upgrade the Mbus-agent-rom using the upgrade mbus-agent-rom all command. Normal forwarding operation of the line cards will not be affected during the upgrade. The line cards do not need to be reloaded. If any error messages are displayed (see following example), repeat this step before contacting Cisco TAC. MBus agent ROM upgrade failed on slot 7 (rc=5) MBus agent ROM upgrade failed on slot 8 (rc=6) Step 7 Use the show version command.
Upgrading to the PRP Step 3 As soon as the “Press RETURN to get started!” message appears on the console, enter enable mode and use the upgrade rom-monitor slot rp-slot command. If the routine finds that an upgrade is necessary, the new code will begin to be loaded. The router will reload once the ROM monitor upgrade has completed. Step 4 RP1 will now be active.
Upgrading to the PRP Upgrading to the PRP With Rebooting the Router If for any reason you cannot use High Availability, you should use the following procedure to upgrade from a GRP to a PRP. Step 1 Remove the Flash disk from the PRP card and install it into slot 1 of the active GRP. The following message will be displayed; do not format the disk. 22:21:31: %PCMCIAFS-5-DIBERR: PCMCIA disk 1 is formatted from a different router or PC.
Upgrading to the PRP Step 7 Make a note of the image name that is being used on the PRP. You can use the command dir disk1:. Step 8 Set the boot system command to boot the new IOS image. Note that the reference will be against disk0:. This is deliberate. Use the command boot system flash disk0: PRP-image-name. Step 9 Save the running configuration to disk1: by using the command copy running-config disk1: config-name. You can check the configuration by using the command more disk1: config-name.
Upgrading to the PRP Step 18 Upgrade the Mbus-agent-rom by using the command upgrade mbus-agent-rom all. Line cards do not need to be reloaded. If any error messages are displayed (see following example), repeat this step before contacting Cisco TAC. MBus agent ROM upgrade failed on slot 7 (rc=5) MBus agent ROM upgrade failed on slot 8 (rc=6) Step 19 Upgrade the fabric downloader by using the command upgrade fabric-downloader all. The line cards do not need to be reloaded.
Upgrading to the PRP Step 22 If the routine finds that an upgrade is necessary, the new code will be loaded. The router will reload once the rom-monitor upgrade has completed, without saving the running configuration. If the rom-monitor upgrade was not required, you must now reload the router. If you are prompted to save the system configuration, answer no. System configuration has been modified.
Configuring Interfaces on the PRP Note Field diagnostics cannot be run on the PRP-2 unless you are using software release 12.0(30)S or higher. Note The show version command may display incorrect information for the PRP-2 card in software releases prior to 12.0(30)S.
Configuring Interfaces on the PRP Note To comply with Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety, connect all console, auxiliary, Ethernet, and BITS (PRP2) interfaces only to intrabuilding or nonexposed wiring or cabling. The intrabuilding cable must be shielded and the shield must be grounded at both ends. Figure 10 shows a PRP RJ-45 receptacle and cable connectors. The RJ-45 connection does not require an external transceiver.

Additional Configuration and Maintenance Tasks Some line cards use DIMM sockets equipped with dual release levers, as shown in Figure 20; other line cards use DIMM sockets equipped with a single release lever, as shown in Figure 21. Both DIMM sockets operate in the same general way. Note DIMM Socket with Dual Release Levers Figure 21 DIMM Socket with Single Release Lever H6513 24860 Figure 20 Step 4 Use the socket release levers to eject the DIMM.
Additional Configuration and Maintenance Tasks Caution Handle the edges of the DIMM only. Do not touch the integrated circuit devices on the DIMM, the metal traces, or fingers, along the edge of the DIMM, or the pins in the DIMM socket. Step 5 As one end of the DIMM is released, grasp the top corners of the DIMM with the thumb and forefinger of each hand and pull the DIMM completely out of its socket. Step 6 Immediately place the DIMM in an antistatic bag to protect it from ESD damage.
Additional Configuration and Maintenance Tasks Step 5 To position the DIMM for insertion, orient it at the same angle as the DIMM socket. The two notches (keys) on the bottom edge of the module ensure that the DIMM edge connector is registered properly in the socket. (See Figure 22.) If necessary, rock the DIMM back and forth gently to align it in the socket. Handling a DIMM H6507 Figure 22 Key Caution When inserting DIMMs into a socket, apply firm, but not excessive, pressure.
Regulatory, Compliance, and Safety Information Checking the DIMM Installation After you install new DIMMs and replace the PRP in the router, the router reinitializes the PRP and detects the memory change as part of the reinitialization cycle. The time required for the router to initialize can vary with different router configurations and memory configurations.
