Troubleshooting Hardware and Software Versions of Redundant Route Processors
To troubleshoot the route processor hardware and software versions for redundancy, use the following
commands:
To confirm that your switch router route processors meets the redundancy requirements, complete the
following steps:
Step 1 Use the show version command to confirm the system hardware and software status of the primary route
processor.
