Installing and Removing a SIP
Activation of a SIP Configuration Example
Activate a SIP if you have previously deactivated it. If you did not deactivate the SPAs, the SPAs
automatically reactivate with reactivation of the SIP.
The following example activates the SIP that is installed in slot 1 of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router,
its SPAs, and all of the interfaces (as long as the hw-module subslot shutdown command was not issued
to also deactivate the SPA):
Router(config)# hw-module slot 1 start
There are no corresponding console messages shown with activation using this command. If you re-enter
the hw-module slot start command, a message displays indicating that the module is already enabled.
Deactivation of a SPA Configuration Example
Deactivate a SPA when you want to perform OIR of that SPA. The following example deactivates the
SPA (and its interfaces) that is installed in subslot 0 of the SIP located in slot 1 of the Cisco ASR 1000
Series Router and removes power to the SPA.
Router(config)# hw-module subslot 1/0 shutdown unpowered
Activation of a SPA Configuration Example
Activate a SPA if you have previously deactivated it. If you have not deactivated a SPA and its interfaces
during OIR of a SIP, then the SPA is automatically reactivated upon reactivation of the SIP.
The following example activates the SPA that is installed in subslot 0 of the SIP located in slot 1 of the
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router.
Router(config)# no hw-module subslot 1/0 shutdown
SIP Installation and Removal
This section provides step-by-step instructions for installing and removing a SIP.
The SIP in the Cisco ASR 1002 Router and Cisco ASR 1002-X Router is permanently installed and
Note
cannot be removed.
When performing the following procedures, wear a grounding wrist strap to avoid ESD damage to the
Caution
SIP. Some platforms have an ESD connector for attaching the wrist strap. Do not directly touch the
midplane or backplane with your hand or any metal tool.
To install a SIP, refer to
Before inserting a SIP, make sure that the chassis is grounded.
Step 1
To insert the SIP, carefully align the edges of the SIP between the upper and lower edges of the router
