Using Show Commands To Verify The New Interface Status - Cisco PA-FE-FX Installation And Configuration Manual

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.
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
Step 5
Use the show version command to display the system hardware configuration. Ensure
that the list includes the new interfaces.
Display the current port adapters and interfaces as follows:
•
For the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, and the Cisco uBR7200 series, display
all the current port adapters and their interfaces with the show controllers command.
Verify that the new PA-FE appears in the correct slot.
•
For the VIP2, display all the current interface processors and their interfaces with the
show controllers cbus command. Verify that the new VIP2 appears in the correct slot.
Specify the new interfaces as follows:
•
For the Cisco 7100, Cisco 7200 series and the Cisco uBR7200 series, specify one of
the new interfaces with the show interfaces port adapter type slot/interface command
and verify that the first line of the display specifies the interface with the correct slot
number. Also verify that the interface and line protocol are in the correct state: up or
down.
For the Cisco 7206VXR and Cisco 7206 router shelves, the show interfaces
Note
command requires a shelf number in the format show interfaces type shelf number/port
adapter slot/interface.
•
For the VIP2, specify one of the new interfaces with the show interfaces type
slot/port-adapter/interface command and verify that the first line of the display
specifies the interface with the correct slot number. Also verify that the interface and
line protocol are in the correct state: up or down.
Display the protocols configured for the entire system and specific interfaces with the
show protocols command. If necessary, return to configuration mode to add or remove
protocol routing on the system or specific interfaces.
Display the running configuration file with the show running-config command. Display
the configuration stored in NVRAM using the show startup-config command. Verify
that the configuration is accurate for the system and each interface.
