Chapter 4 Preparing Service Modules for Communication
Managing Firmware Version Levels for Service Modules
After you enter the setrev command, the System status LED blinks red until the firmware load is
complete, and then it changes to non-blinking green.
Step 4 To verify the activation of a card for which the status was previously listed as Failed/Active, enter the
dspcds command. The status should appear as follows:
• All service modules except the MPSM-8-T1E1 card should display Active/Active.
• MPSM-8-T1E1 cards should display Standby/Active.
To bring MPSM-8-T1E1 cards up to the Active/Active status, you must configure a service and interface
type. For MPSM-8-T1E1 cards, you must also configure an interface and service.
Verifying Card Firmware Version Levels
When you are having problems with your switch, or when you have taken delivery of a new switch but
delayed installation, it is wise to verify the firmware versions installed on the switch. If newer versions
of this firmware are available, installing the updated firmware can prevent switch problems.
To verify the firmware versions in use on your switch, use the following procedure.
Step 1 To display the software revision status of all the cards in a switch, enter the dsprevs command as follows:
