These commands report on only software-controlled modules, such as supervisors, system controllers,
line cards, fabric modules, fan trays, and power supplies. Modules that are uncontrolled by software,
such as blank modules installed in empty slots to control airflow are not reported on.
If you use the reload command, be sure to save the running configuration first by using the copy
running-config startup-config command.
