Interface Processor Description LEDS The interface processor has several status LEDs on its faceplate, next to each port, which indicate conditions on that port. (See Figure 6.) After system initialization, the enabled LED goes on to indicate that the FSIP has been enabled for operation. The following conditions must be met before the interface processor is enabled: • The interface processor microcode is valid and has been downloaded successfully.

Installation Prerequisites Installation Prerequisites This section provides important prerequisites you should observe regarding interface processor software, hardware, and microcode.
Safety Guidelines Caution To ensure proper operation of the interface processor, and to preclude system problems, you should use only the interface processor microcode image that is recommended for the version of Cisco IOS software you are running (refer to the Software Advisor at http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/Support/CompNav/Index.pl) or refer to the installation and configuration guide for your specific interface processor at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/core/cis7505/interpro/index.
Safety Guidelines Safety Warnings Warning This warning symbol means danger. You are in a situation that could cause bodily injury. Before you work on any equipment, be aware of the hazards involved with electrical circuitry and be familiar with standard practices for preventing accidents. To see translations of the warnings that appear in this publication, refer to the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information document that accompanied this device.
Safety Guidelines Advarsel Dette varselsymbolet betyr fare. Du befinner deg i en situasjon som kan føre til personskade. Før du utfører arbeid på utstyr, må du vare oppmerksom på de faremomentene som elektriske kretser innebærer, samt gjøre deg kjent med vanlig praksis når det gjelder å unngå ulykker.
Safety Guidelines • Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations. • Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface. • Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Guidelines for Interface Processor Removal and Installation Environmental and Regulatory Specifications Each interface processor model and all supported port adapters meet the environmental and regulatory specifications listed in Table 5. Table 5 Environmental and Regulatory Specifications Parameter Specification EMI/RFI FCC Class Limits FCC 47 CFR Part 15, Subpart EN55022 Class Limits Humidity 10 to 90%, noncondensing Operating temperature 50 F (10 C) to 104 F (40 C) Safety UL 1950 D3 Dev.
Interface Processor Installation Procedures • Using the handle to force the interface processor all the way into the slot can pop the ejector levers out of their springs. If you then try to use the ejector levers to seat the interface processor, the first layer of pins (which are already mated to the backplane) can disconnect and then remate with the backplane, which the system interprets as a board failure.
Interface Processor Installation Procedures Shutting Down an Interface If you are installing a new interface processor or replacing an existing interface processor, proceed to the “Removing an Interface Processor” section on page 24. If you are removing an interface processor that you will not replace, or replacing an interface processor component, we recommend you shut down (disable) the interfaces to prevent anomalies when you reinstall the new or reconfigured interface processor.
Interface Processor Installation Procedures (additional displayed text omitted from this example) Step 8 To reenable the interfaces, repeat the previous steps but use the no shutdown command (see Step 4), then write the new configuration to NVRAM as follows: Router# copy running-config startup-config [OK] Router# show interface type 0/0 (additional displayed text omitted from this example) Type0/0 is up, line protocol is up (additional displayed text omitted from this example) This completes the proced
Interface Processor Installation Procedures Step 3 Remove and replace the interface processor using the procedures in this publication. Step 4 Wait 15 seconds. Step 5 Reinsert the slave RSP2. Figure 12 shows proper handling of an interface processor during installation. Handling Interface Processors during Installation (Horizontal Orientation Shown) H4714 Figure 12 Captive installation screws This completes the procedure for removing and replacing an RSP2 in a Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7513 router.
Interface Processor Installation Procedures Step 4 Grasp the interface processor handle with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier to guide the interface processor out of the slot. (See Figure 12.) Avoid touching the board or any connector pins. Step 5 Carefully pull the interface processor straight out of the slot, keeping one hand under the carrier to guide it. (See Figure 12.) Keep the interface processor parallel to the backplane.
Interface Processor Installation Procedures Step 3 Interface processors and interface processor fillers are secured with two captive installation screws. (See Figure 13a.) Use a flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the captive installation screws and remove the interface processor filler (or the existing interface processor) from the slot. If you remove an interface processor, immediately place it in an antistatic bag to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge.
Configuring the Interface Processor Step 6 Caution While keeping the interface processor parallel to the backplane, carefully slide the interface processor into the slot until the back of the faceplate makes contact with the ejector levers, then stop. (See Figure 13b.) Always use the ejector levers when installing or removing processor modules. A module that is partially seated in the backplane will cause the system to hang and subsequently crash.
Upgrading Interface Processor Microcode Images At the console terminal, use the following procedure to enter the privileged level: Step 1 At the user-level EXEC prompt, enter the enable command. The EXEC command interpreter prompts you for a privileged-level password, as follows: Router> enable Password: Step 2 Enter the password (the password is case sensitive). For security purposes, the password is not displayed on your console.
Upgrading Interface Processor Microcode Images Use the following procedure to copy a microcode version from a TFTP server to Flash memory: Step 1 To display the total amount of Flash memory present, its location, any files that currently exist in Flash memory and their size, and the amount of Flash memory remaining, use the show flash command. Following is an example of the output that is displayed: Router# show flash 4096K bytes of flash memory on embedded flash (in RSP1).
Upgrading Interface Processor Microcode Images file offset length name 1 0xD0D4 53364 vip221-40 [4085336/4194304 bytes free] Step 9 To ensure that the new microcode is used when you reboot the system, add the appropriate commands to the configuration file. To modify the configuration file, enter the following command: Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting This section provides information on troubleshooting the interface processor. For further information, see the “Obtaining Technical Assistance” section on page 33. • Interface Processor Is Not Recognized If after configuring the interface processor, it is not recognized, you may be running an incorrect Cisco IOS version.
