When you have verified all the conditions in Step 2 through Step 6 (or Step 7 if you have a second RSP2

installed and want to use the HSA or the HA features), the installation is complete. If you replaced the

RSP2 and saved your configuration file to a remote server before doing so, see the “Retrieving the

Configuration File” section on page 69. If you replaced the RSP2 and did not save the configuration, use

the configure command or the setup command facility to reenter the configuration information.

An error condition exists if no LEDs go on at power up or after initialization, or if the CPU halt LED

goes on and remains on. If this happens, proceed to the “Troubleshooting the Installation” section on

page 60 to try to isolate the problem.

For more complete configuration information, refer to the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration

Guide and the Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference publications, which are available on

the Documentation CD-ROM or as printed documents.

If you have a second RSP2 installed, you must configure the HSA (or HA, if you prefer) features for your

Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7513 router. Read the following caution, and then proceed to the following section,

“Configuring High System Availability” section on page 23.

Caution When you install a second RSP2 card for the first time and plan to enable the HSA or HA features, you

must immediately configure it correctly. See the “Configuring High System Availability” section on

page 23, or the “Enabling High Availability Features” section on page 38. This ensures that the new

standby is configured consistently with the active. Failure to do so may result in an unconfigured standby

RSP2 (or RSP4/4+) taking over the router when the active fails, rendering the network inoperable.

This completes the procedure for restarting the system.

Configuring the Router for a Single RSP2

If you have a single RSP2, you can configure your system according to the Cisco IOS release appropriate

for your router. See the Cisco IOS software configuration documentation set that corresponds to the

software release installed on your Cisco hardware at

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/index.htm.

If you have more than one RSP2 (or an RSP2 and an RSP4/4+), and you are using a Cisco 7507 router

or a Cisco 7513 router, you must configure your router for either high system availability (HSA) the

default, (see the “Configuring High System Availability” section on page 23), or high availability (HA),

(see the “Enabling High Availability Features” section on page 38).

Using the EXEC Command Interpreter

Before you configure your system using the EXEC-level commands, you must enter the privileged level

of the EXEC command interpreter using the enable command. The system prompts you for a password

if one has been set. The system prompt for the privileged level ends with a pound sign (#) instead of an

angle bracket (>).

At the console terminal, enter the privileged level as follows:

Step 1 At the EXEC prompt (>), enter the enable command. The EXEC command interpreter prompts you for

a privileged-level password, as follows:
