Identifying Conditions for Replacing an MPLS Module

If the STATUS LED on the MPLS module turns amber and blinks, use the
command to display the slot status information. The
<slot>
command also displays operational information related to the MPLS module.
Information displayed includes the BlackDiamond switch fabric card state, Network
Processor status, General Purpose Processor status, hardware serial number and type,
and image version and boot settings.
To display the status for slot 1, use the following command:

down), use the following command to run the diagnostics on the MPLS module and
display the results:

To display the MPLS module software diagnostics, you must wait for the DIAG LED to
stop blinking. After the blinking stops, use the following command to display each test
that was run with a Pass/Fail status:

operational code image. Use the

If the diagnostics fail, replace the MPLS module with another module of the same type.
If one of the network processors fails, the MPLS module continues to operate with
reduced forwarding capacity. As long as the MPLS module is not over subscribed,
network disruption is minimal. The entire card must be rebooted using the
command to recover a halted network processor.
