Verifying the Installation (NAM-1, NAM-2)
Before proceeding with any configuration, you should verify that the NAM hardware is functioning properly
and that the host switch recognizes the NAM you have installed. The Status LED on the NAM front panel
provides basic status information. The status LED appears green when the hardware is functioning properly.
An orange status indicates that the NAM is performing boot tests, it has been shut down, or it has been
disabled. A red LED indicates failure. Upon first installation and power up, you may need to wait several
minutes for the tests to complete and for the LED to turn green.
After you verify that the NAM is functioning properly, you may then want to verify that the switch recognizes
the NAM. To verify this, use the show module command from the Cisco Catalyst CLI. The show module
command generates output that indicates which slot the NAM is in as well as its status—ok, disabled, down,
other (tests running), or failed. The output also indicates the version of software used by the NAM. Once the
NAM is online, you can begin the initial setup of the NAM.
Note(s):
• To determine which image the NAM is using, you can use the show module command or session into
the NAM. When using the application image, the show module output will indicate the software version
being used by the NAM. If using the maintenance image, the software version number will not be the
NAM release version and should be followed by an “m.”
