Checking the FPC Installation
Purpose
To verify an FPC failure by checking the FPC installation.
Action
To check the FPC installation:
- Make sure that the FPC is seated in its slot. Use a screwdriver to check that the screws at the top and bottom of the card carrier are tight.
- Try to bring the FPC online. Press the online button on the craft interface or FPM for a few seconds. If the FPC does not come online, it has probably failed.
- If the FPC comes online, check the FPC detailed status
with the following command:user@host> show chassis fpc detail fpc-slot
For the M40e, M120, M160, M320, T320, T640, and T1600 routers, to bring the FPC online, use the request chassis fpc slot-number online command.
On a TX Matrix router, if you specify the number of the T640 router (or line-card chassis) by using the lcc number option (the recommended method), replace fpc-slot with a value from 0 through 7. Otherwise, replace fpc-slot with a value from 0 through 31. Likewise, on a TX Matrix Plus router, if you specify the number of the T1600 router (or line-card chassis) by using the lcc number option (the recommended method), replace fpc-slot with a value from 0 through 7. Otherwise, replace fpc-slot with a value from 0 through 31. For example, the following commands have the same result:
