LEDs LEDs The PA-FE-TX and the PA-FE-FX have an enabled LED, standard on all port adapters, and a bank of three status LEDs for the ports. After system initialization, the enabled LED goes on to indicate that the PA-FE has been enabled for operation. (The LEDs are shown in Figure 1-7.) LEDs on the PA-FE Port Adapter—Partial Faceplate View of PA-FE-TX H4710 Figure 1-7 The following conditions must be met before the enabled LED goes on: • • The PA-FE is correctly connected and receiving power.

Fast Ethernet Overview Fast Ethernet Overview The term Ethernet is commonly used for all carrier sense multiple access collision detect (CSMA/CD), LANs that generally conform to Ethernet specifications, including Fast Ethernet under IEEE 802.3u. Note 100BaseTX is intended for Environment A, and 100BaseFX is intended for Environment B. IEEE 802.3u is well suited to applications where a local communication medium must carry sporadic, occasionally heavy traffic at high peak data rates.
IEEE 802.3u 100BaseT Specifications IEEE 802.3u 100BaseT Specifications Table 1-3 lists the cabling specifications for 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet transmission over UTP, FTP, and fiber-optic cables.

Figure 6-3 Handling a Port Adapter Metal carrier H6420 Printed circuit board Step 6 Place the port adapter on an antistatic surface with its components facing upward, or in a static shielding bag. If the port adapter will be returned to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.
Installing a Port Adapter Caution Do not slide the port adapter all the way into the slot until you have connected all required cables. Trying to do so disrupts normal operation of the router. Figure 6-4 Aligning the Single-Width Port Adapter Between the Slot Guides Guides I RCVR EN XMTR RCLK FERF RL FE 0 / 22132 5 AIS OOF LL Step 7 With the port adapter halfway in the slot, connect all required cables to the port adapter.
C H A P TER 7 Installing PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables To continue your PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX port adapter installation, you must install the port adapter’s interface cables. The following instructions apply to all supported platforms.
Attaching PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables Note Each PA-FE-FX or PA-FE-TX can have either an MII attachment or an RJ-45 (or SC) attachment, but not both simultaneously. The MII and RJ-45 (or SC) receptacles represent two physical connection options for one Fast Ethernet interface.
Attaching PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables Step 2 For the PA-FE-TX, attach the ferrite bead to the RJ-45 cable (at either end), as shown in Figure 7-3. Caution The ferrite bead prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI) from affecting the PA-FE-TX-equipped system and is a required component for proper system operation.

C H A P TER 8 Configuring PA-FE Port Adapter Interfaces To continue your PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX port adapter installation, you must configure the PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX interfaces. The following instructions apply to all supported platforms. Minor differences between the platforms are noted.
Using the EXEC Command Interpreter Using the EXEC Command Interpreter You modify the configuration of your router through the software command interpreter called the EXEC. You must enter the privileged level of the EXEC command interpreter (also called enable mode) with the enable command before you can use the configure command to configure a new interface or to change the existing configuration of an interface. The system prompts you for a password if one has been set.
Note For the Cisco 7206VXR and Cisco 7206 router shelves, physical port addresses are composed of a three-part number in the format shelf number/port adapter slot number/interface port number, where the shelf number is a number assigned to the router shelf during the initial configuration of the Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server. A Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server can consist of several shelves; therefore, each shelf is assigned a shelf number.
Identifying Chassis Slot, Port Adapter Slot, and PA-FE Interface Port Numbers The individual interface port numbers always begin with 0. The number of additional ports depends on the number of ports on a port adapter. For example, if the PA-FE in slot 4 (with the interface address 4/0 [port adapter slot 4, and interface port 0]) were in slot 2, the port adapter’s interface would be numbered 2/0.
Note Although the processor slots in the seven-slot Cisco 7000 and Cisco 7507 and thirteen-slot Cisco 7513 are vertically oriented and those in the five-slot Cisco 7010 and Cisco 7505 are horizontally oriented, all models use the same method for slot and port numbering. Interface ports on the VIP2 maintain the same address regardless of whether other interface processors are installed or removed.
Performing a Basic Configuration Figure 8-4 Port Adapter Slot Numbering—Cisco 7120 Series Slot 3 Slot 5 SLOT 0 SLOT 1 PWR ACT ACT 0 5 FE 0 / 0 EN TX LNK LNK 1 0/1 0 CONS AUX SYS RDY RX RX 18498 I E3 FE 2 CEL CAR ALM 7120 - AE3 Slot 1 Slot 0 Slots in the Cisco 7140 series are numbered as shown Figure 8-5. The fixed LAN interface is slot 0, the fixed WAN interfaces are slots 1 and 2, and the modular port adapter interface is slot 4. Slot 3 is not used. Slot 5 is the service adapter.
Use the following sample basic configuration procedure: Step 1 At the privileged-level prompt, enter configuration mode and specify that the console terminal is the source of the configuration subcommands, as follows: Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. Router(config)# Step 2 End with CNTL/Z.
Performing a Basic Configuration Configuring PA-FE Transmission Mode Half-duplex operation is the default transmission mode for the PA-FE. Use the full-duplex command to configure full-duplex operation for the PA-FE as follows: Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. Router(config)# Router(config)# interface fastethernet 4/0 Router(config-if)# full-duplex Ctrl-z End with CNTL/Z.
To check the interface configuration using show commands, proceed to the “Checking the Configuration” section on page 8-9. Checking the Configuration After configuring the new interface, use the show commands to display the status of the new interface or all interfaces and the ping command to check connectivity. Using show Commands to Verify the New Interface Status The following steps use show commands to verify that the new interfaces are configured and operating correctly.
Checking the Configuration If the interface is down and you configured it as up, or if the displays indicate that the hardware is not functioning properly, ensure that the network interface is properly connected and terminated. If you still have problems bringing the interface up, contact a service representative for assistance.

Use the show diagbus slot command to determine which type of port adapter is installed on a VIP2 in your system. Specific port adapter information is displayed, as shown in the following example of a PA-FE-FX in interface processor slot 1: Router# show diagbus 1 Slot 1: Physical slot 1, ~physical slot 0xE, logical slot 1, CBus 0 Microcode Status 0xC Master Enable, LED, WCS Loaded Board is analyzed Pending I/O Status: Console I/O EEPROM format version 1 VIP2 controller, HW rev 2.
Checking the Configuration Following is an example of a successful ping command to a remote server with the address 172.16.0.0: Router# ping 172.16.0.0 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echoes to 10.0.0.0, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/15/64 ms Router# If the connection fails, verify that you have the correct IP address for the destination and that the device is active (powered on), and repeat the ping command.
