Verifying Virtual MAC Address Configuration

Verifying Virtual MAC Address Configuration
Verify port information by entering the following command
show port info slot#/port#
slot# is the chassis slot number of the line card on which the physical port resides. port# is the physical port
on the line card.
The output of this command should be similar to that shown in the example below.

Configuring Packet Processing and Line Card Availability

As discussed in the Understanding the System Boot Process section of System Operation and Configuration,
when the system boots up, all installed packet processing cards are placed into standby mode. You must
activate some of these cards in order to configure and use them for session processing. Others may remain in
standby mode to serve as redundant components.
When you activate an application card, the line card behind it shows up as attached and in a Ready state. Only
when you bind a logical interface to one of the ports of the line card pair will the line cards assume an active
and standby state.
This section provides instructions for activating packet processing cards and specifying their redundancy.
Enter the following command to check the application card's operational status:
show card table
This command lists the packet processing cards and RCCs installed in the system by their slot number, their
operational status, whether or not the card is a single point of failure (SPOF), and its attachment to a line card.
Check the line card operational status by entering the following command:
show linecard table
This command lists the line cards installed in the system by their slot number, their operational status, whether
or not the card is a single point of failure (SPOF), and its attachment to a packet processing card or SPC/SMC.
