(VIP4) Installation and Configuration Guide
Product Numbers: VIP4-50=, VIP4-80=, MEM-VIP4-64M-SD=, MEM-VIP4-128M-SD=, MEM-VIP4-256M-SD=
Introduction
This guide provides instructions for installing, configuring, and maintaining the fourth-generation
Versatile Interface Processor (VIP4). The VIP4 operates with the Cisco 7505, Cisco 7507, Cisco
7507-MX, Cisco 7513, Cisco 7513-MX, and the Cisco 7576 routers with the Route Switch Processor
(RSP1, RSP2, RSP4, RSP4+, or RSP8), and with the Cisco 7000 series routers using the 7000 Series
Route Switch Processor (RSP7000) and 7000 Series Chassis Interface (RSP7000CI). See the
Requirements" section on page 9
The VIP4 supports online insertion and removal (OIR), which allows you to remove and replace a VIP4
without first shutting down the system. Online insertion and removal maximizes router availability by
letting you add or remove VIP4s during system operation. See the
Installation" section on page 15
The VIP4 supports LAN and WAN port adapters (PAs), including Fast Ethernet, T1/E1, High-Speed
Serial Interface (HSSI), T3/E3, T3/E3 ATM, multichannel T1/E1, multichannel T3/E3, OC-3 ATM,
Packet over SONET (POS), and OC-12 ATM. For a list of supported port adapters, refer to the
and Port Adapter Compatibility" section on page
The VIP4 port adapters do not support OIR, so when removing or inserting a port adapter, the system
must be shut down first. The VIP42 must be removed from its interface processor slot before removing
or installing a port adapter.
For complete descriptions of interface subcommands and the configuration options available for
VIP4-related interfaces, refer to the configuration note for each of the port adapters installed on your
VIP4 and to the appropriate Cisco IOS software configuration publications. (See the

The microcode boot image in the PROM initializes the VIP4 and then assists downloading the VIP4 microcode image. All interfaces of the same type (VIP4, and so on) will load the same microcode image, either from the microcode image bundled with the Cisco IOS or from an image stored in system Flash memory. -

- Page 18 VIP4 Installation Procedures Figure 3 Handling Interface Processors—Vertical Orientation Shown Failure to use the ejector levers and insert the interface processor properly can disrupt the order in which Caution the pins make contact with the card or interface processor. This may cause the system to interpret a board failure.
- Page 19 If your router does not have the HSA or HA feature enabled, perform only Step 4 through Step 7 in the following procedure. If the router has the HSA or HA feature enabled with an RSP2 configured as the system standby, we recommend that you perform all the steps in the following procedure: Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap between you and an unpainted chassis surface.
- Page 20 VIP4 Installation Procedures To ensure compliance with EMI approvals by providing a tight EMI seal for the Cisco 7500 and the Cisco Note 7000 routers, we recommend that you first install interface processors in the interface processor slots closest to the RSP slots, and then work out to the interface processor slots furthest from the RSP slots. For more information on interface processor slots on your router, refer to the Cisco 7500 Series Installation and Configuration Guide or the appropriate Quick Start Guide for the Cisco 7500 series routers, or refer to Cisco 7000 Hardware Installation and Maintenance manual for the Cisco 7000 series...

This completes the procedure for installing a VIP4 in a Cisco 7500 series or Cisco 7000 series router. (For the procedures for installing or removing a port adapter on your VIP4, see the Replacing a Port Adapter on a VIP4” section on page Performing a Basic Configuration For complete descriptions of interface subcommands and the configuration options available for VIP4-related interfaces, refer to the configuration note for each of the port adapters installed on your... - Page 22 Checking the VIP4 Installation The VIP4 has no LEDs that are visible or usable when the VIP4 is installed. The port adapters you install Note on the VIP4 have status and interface LEDs. When the system has reinitialized all interfaces, the enabled LED on the VIP4 port adapters and on all interface processors should go on, depending on your connections and configuration.
- Page 23 If the enabled LED on a port adapter fails to go on, suspect that the VIP4 board connector is not fully Step 3 seated in the backplane. Loosen the captive installation screws, and then firmly push both ejector levers into place until they are approximately in the same orientation as the VIP4 faceplate. Tighten the captive installation screws.
- Page 24 Checking the VIP4 Installation Using show Commands to Verify the VIP4 Status The following steps use show commands to verify that the new interfaces are configured and operating correctly. Use the show version command to display the system hardware configuration. Ensure that the list Step 1 includes the new interfaces.

Page 28: Vip4 Maintenance Procedures
VIP4 Maintenance Procedures Using the ping Command to Verify Network Connectivity This section provides brief descriptions of the ping command. The ping command allows you to verify that an interface port is functioning properly and to check the path between a specific port and connected devices at various locations on the network. - Page 29 Software and interface processor microcode images are carefully optimized and bundled to work Note together. Overriding the Cisco IOS software bundle can result in system incompatibilities. We recommend that you use the microcode included in the Cisco IOS software bundle. You can download microcode to Flash memory by copying the TFTP image of a microcode version to Flash memory.
- Page 30 VIP4 Maintenance Procedures After you verify that there is sufficient space available in Flash memory for the new image, use the Step 3 command copy tftp:filename [ flash | slot0 | slot1 ]:filename to copy an image to Flash memory. (The file source is tftp:filename, and [ flash | slot0 | slot1 ]:filename is the destination in onboard Flash memory or on either of the Flash memory cards.) An example of the copy tftp:filename command follows:...
