Installing and Maintaining the E1200i System 63
Booting to the CLI Prompt
After you supply power to the system, the following should occur:
• During bootup, power is removed temporarily from all line cards and SFMs. This is expected behavior.
• Both fan trays should be operating.
• The green (online) LEDs for the fan trays, Power Supplies, RPMs, SFMs, and line cards should be lit
and remain lit as long as the system is receiving power and is operational.
When you supply power to the E1200i system, the system performs a series of power-on self tests. RPM,
line card, and SFM LEDs blink as the diagnostic programs run. No user interaction is required at this point.
Observe the process on your console monitor. When the boot process is complete, the card LEDs remain
online (green) and the console monitor displays the Command Line Interface (CLI) prompt.
Refer to the
FTOS Configuration Guide, on the technical publications CD-ROM, for initial configuration
procedures and configuration instructions.
Booting from the BOOT_USER Prompt
The initial boot operation automatically brings up the system to the runtime CLI. To interrupt the
automatic boot process, issue a break key sequence (CNTL^). The console monitor will display the default
BOOT_USER #
prompt. Refer to Appendix B, on page 79 for instructions to continue the boot process.
Note: Do not press any keys or control sequences at any time during the boot process. Doing so may cause
the boot process to terminate.
