About the Router
Processor Unit
The router processing unit (RPU or RPU2) is the main controller for the
Router 6000. The RPU or RPU2 handles protocols, forwards low-speed
packets, governs interfaces, and detects faults. You can see information
about the operating state of the FAN module, PSU, and system using the
LEDs on the RPU or RPU2. Alternatively, you can monitor system status
using a network management system. The RPU or RPU2 also provides a
hardware reset button.
Your Router 6000 may have one of two different Router Process Units:
and RPU or and RPU2. For information on the RPU, refer to “The RPU
Module”. For information on the RPU2, refer to “The RPU2 Module”.
