    Check the Router Component Status

    When you check the router craft interface, the component LEDs, and the environmental and operational information, you are either physically inspecting the components or obtaining output about their status from commands you issue from the CLI.

    To check router component status:

    1. Check the Router Craft Interface
    2. Check the Component LEDs
    3. Display Detailed Component Environmental Information
    4. Display Detailed Component Operational Information

    Check the Router Craft Interface

    Purpose

    To confirm that the craft interface is functioning properly by checking the alarm indicator status or by checking the craft interface physically.

    Action

    To check the router craft interface, do one of the following:

    • Use the following command:
      user@host> show chassis craft-interface

      The command output displays the router alarm indicator status, the LCD display information (router name, router uptime, and status message that rotates at 2-second intervals), and the major component LED status. Table 1 describes the command output for each router type. For more detailed information about the craft interface, see Checklist for Monitoring the Craft Interface .

    Display Detailed Component Environmental Information

    Purpose

    To check the component environmental information for the uptime to determine if it is functioning properly.

    Action

    To display detailed environmental status information about a component, use the following command:

    user@host> show chassis environment component-name

    The command output displays the temperature of the air passing by the component, in degrees Centigrade and Fahrenheit. It also displays whether the fans and/or blowers are at normal or high speed.

    Display Detailed Component Operational Information

    Purpose

    To check the component environmental information for the uptime to determine if it is functioning properly. This feature is available on all routing platforms except the M5/M10, M20, and M40 routing platforms.

    Action

    To display detailed operational information about a component, use the following command:

    user@host> show chassis component-name

    The command output displays the temperature of the air passing by the component, in degrees Centigrade and Fahrenheit. It displays the total percentage of CPU, interrupt, heap space, and buffer space being used by the component processor, including the total DRAM available to the component processor. The command output displays the time when the component started running and how long the component has been running. A short uptime can indicate a problem with the component.
