Step 5 During the boot process, observe the system LEDs. The LEDs on the shared port adapter go on and off
in irregular sequence. They may go on, go out, and go on again for a short time. On the router, the green
STATUS LED comes on and stays on.
Verifying the Front Panel LEDs
The front-panel indicator LEDs provide power, activity, and status information useful during bootup. For
more detailed information about the LEDs, refer to
Chapter 2, “Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers
Components.”
Verifying the Hardware Configuration
To display and verify the hardware features, enter the following commands:
• show version—Displays the system hardware version; the installed software version; the names and
sources of configuration files; the boot images; and the amount of installed DRAM, NVRAM, and
flash memory.
• show diag slot—Displays the IDPROM information for the assemblies in the chassis.
Checking Hardware and Software Compatibility
To check the minimum software requirements of the Cisco IOS software with the hardware installed on
your Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers, Cisco maintains the Software Advisor tool on Cisco.com. This
tool does not verify whether Cisco ASR 1000 Series SIPs or SPAs within a system are compatible; but
the tool provides the minimum Cisco IOS requirements for individual hardware modules and
components.
Note To access this tool, you must have a Cisco.com login account.
To access the Software Advisor, click Login at Cisco.com, type Software Advisor in the search box,
and click Go. Click the link for the Software Advisor Tool.
Choose a product family or enter a specific product number to search for the minimum supported
software needed for your hardware.
