Port Adapter Overview

CHAPTER

The PA-E3 is a single-width, one-port or two-port port adapter that integrates data service unit (DSU) functionality into the Cisco router (see Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2). The port adapters provides one or two high-speed serial E3 interfaces.

Note Port adapters have a handle attached, but this handle is occasionally not shown in figures in this

publication to allow a full view of detail on the port adapter’s faceplate.

The one-port PA-E3 provides up to two network interfaces per Catalyst RSM/VIP2 for the Catalyst 5000 family switches, Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module in the Catalyst 6000 family switches, and VIP for Cisco 7000 series and Cisco 7500 series routers, and one high-speed interface on the Cisco 7100 series routers, Cisco 7200 series routers, Cisco 7200 VXR routers, Cisco uBR7200 series routers, the Cisco 7201 router, the Cisco 7301 router, the Cisco 7401ASR router, and the Cisco 7304 PCI Port Adapter Carrier Card in the Cisco 7304 router.

The two-port PA-2E3 provides up to four network interfaces per Catalyst RSM/VIP2 for the Catalyst 5000 family switches, Catalyst 6000 f amily Fle xWAN module in the Catalyst 6000 f amily switches, and VIP for Cisco 7000 series and Cisco 7500 series routers, and two high-speed interfaces on the Cisco 7100 series routers, Cisco 7200 series routers, Cisco 7200 VXR routers, Cisco uBR7200 series routers, Cisco 7201 router, Cisco 7301 router, Cisco 7401ASR router, and Cisco 7304 PCI Port Adapter Carrier Card in the Cisco 7304 router.

Serial network interfaces reside on modular port adapters, which provide a direct connection between the high-speed bus in the router and the external networks. The PA-E3 provides a full-duplex synchronous serial E3 interface for transmitting and receiving data at rates of up to 34 megabits per second (Mbps).

The port adapters both supports both 16- and 32-bit cyclic redundancy checks (CRCs). The default is 16-bit CRCs; to enable 32-bit CRCs, you use a configuration command. For a description of the CRC function, see the “Configuring Cyclic Redundancy Checks” section on page 4-10.

Note The Catalyst RSM/VIP2, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, the VIP, and the Cisco 7304 PCI

Port Adapter Carrier Card support online insertion and removal (OIR), but individual port adapters do not. To replace port adapters, you must first remove the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, the VIP, or the Cisco 7304 PCI Port Adapter Carrier Card from the chassis and then replace port adapters as required.

OIR is supported for port adapters in the Cisco 7100 series routers, Cisco 7200 series routers, Cisco 7200 VXR routers, Cisco uBR7200 series routers, Cisco 7201 router, Cisco 7301 router, and Cisco 7401ASR router.

After system initialization, the ENABLED LED goes on, indicating that the port adapter has been enabled for operation.

The following conditions must be met before the PA-E3 is enabled:

• The port adapter contains a valid microcode version that has been downloaded successfully.

• The port adapter is correctly connected to and receiving power from the Catalyst RSM/VIP2

motherboard, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, the VIP, or the Cisco 7304 PCI Port Adapter Carrier Card.

• The bus recognizes the port adapter.

If any of these conditions are not met, or if the initiali zation f ails for ot her reasons, the ENABLED LED does not go on.

Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts

The serial interface cable for the PA-E3, which is a 75-ohm coaxial cable, is used to connect your router to a serial E3 network. Serial cables conform to EIA/TIA-612 and EIA/TIA-613 specifications. The serial ports on the PA-E3 are considered to be DTE devices.

On a single P A-E3, there are one or two serial E3 ports, each with two connectors (recei ve and transmit), where you connect the Cisco 75-ohm coaxial cable. The 75-ohm coaxial cable (Cisco part number CAB-ATM-DS3/E3) for the P A-E3 is av ailable only from Cisco Systems; it is not a vailable from outside commercial cable vendors.

The Cisco E3 75-ohm coaxial cable, which comes with an attached ferrite sleeve (see Figure 1-5), is available only in 10-foot (3.05-meter) lengths. Line build-out is programmable for up to 450 feet of 734A or equivalent coaxial cable or up to 225 feet for 728A or equivalent coaxial cable.

Catalyst RSM/VIP2 Slot Numbering

The Catalyst RSM/VIP2 can be installed in any slot in a Catalyst 5000 f amily switch except the top slots, which contain the supervisor engine modules. The Catalyst RSM/VIP2 does not use interface processor slot numbering; therefore, the slots in which it is inst alled are not numbered. The PA-E3 can be installed into either port adapter slot 0 or slot 1 on a Catalyst RSM/VIP2. Figure 1-6 shows a Catalyst RSM/VIP2 with two port adapters installed.

Note The Catalyst 5500 switch has 13 slots. Slot 1 is reserved for t he supervisor engine module. If a redundant

supervisor engine module is used, it would go in slot 2; otherwise, slot 2 can be used for other modules. Slot 13 is a dedicated slot, reserved for the ATM Switch Processor (ASP) module. Refer to the Catalyst 5000 Series Route Switch Module Installation and Conf iguration Note for any additional slot restrictions for the Catalyst RSM/VIP2.

Chapter 1 Overview

Identifying Interface Addresses

This section describes how to identify interface addresses for the PA-E3 in supported platforms. Interface addresses specify the actual physical location of each interface on a router or switch.

Interfaces on the PA-E3 installed in a router maintain the same address regardless of whether other port adapters are installed or removed. However, when you move a port adapter to a different slot, the first number in the interface address changes to reflect the new port adapter slot number.

Interfaces on a PA-E3 installed in a VIP or FlexWAN module maintain the same address regardless of whether other interface processors or modules are installed or remov ed. Ho wev er , when you mov e a VIP or FlexWAN module to a different slot, the i nterface processor or module slot number changes to r eflect the new interface processor or module slot.

Note Interface ports are numbered from left to right starting with 0.

The following subsections describe the interface address formats for the supported platforms:

• Catalyst RSM/VIP2 Interface Addresses, page 1-16

2. Port adapter slot 0 is reserved for the Fast Ethernet port on the I/O controller (if present).

3. Port adapter slot 0 is reserved for the Fast Ethernet port on the I/O controller (if present).

Catalyst RSM/VIP2 Interface Addresses

In Catalyst 5000 family switches, the Catalyst RSM/VIP2 can be installed in any slot except the top slots, which contain the supervisor engine modules. Th e Cataly st RSM/VIP2 in a Catalyst 5000 fa mily switch does not use interface processor slot numbering; therefore, the slots in which it is installed are not numbered. A port adapter can be installed into either port adapter slot 0 or slot 1 on a Catalyst RSM/VIP2. See Figure 1-6.

The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format port-adapter-slot number/interface-port number. See Table 1-2. For example, if a single-port PA-E3 is installed in port adapter slot 1 of a Catalyst RSM/VIP2 in a Catalyst 5000 family switch, the interface address would be 1/0. If a dual-port PA-2E3 is installed in port adapter slot 1 of a Catalyst RSM/VIP2 in a Catalyst 5000 family switch, the interface addresses would be 1/0 and 1/1.

Chapter 1 Overview

Catalyst 6000 Family FlexWAN Module Interface Addresses

In Catalyst 6000 family switches, the Catalyst 6000 family Fle xWAN module can be installed in module slots 2 through 13 (depending on the number of slots in the router). Slot 1 is reserved for the supervisor engine. A port adapter can be installed into either port adapter bay 0 or bay 1 on a FlexWAN module. See Figure 1-7.

The interface address is composed of a three-part number in the format module-number/port-adapter-bay-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-2.

The first number identifies the module slot of th e chassis in which the FlexWAN module is installed (slot 2 through slot 3, 6, 9, or 13 depending on the number of slots in the chassis). These module slots are generally numbered from top to bottom, st arting with 1.

The second number identifies the bay of the FlexWAN module in which the port adapter is installed (0 or 1). The bays are numbered from left to right on the FlexWAN module.

The third number identifies the physical port number on the port adapter. The PA-E3 is a single-port port adapter, therefore the port is always 0. The PA-2E3 is a dual-port port adapter, therefore the port can be 0 or 1.

For example, if a single-port PA-E3 is installed in a FlexWAN module in module slot 3, port adapter bay 0, then the interface address is 3/0/0 (module slot 3, port adapter bay 0, and interface 0). I f a dual-port PA-2E3 is installed in a FlexWAN module in module slot 3, port adapter bay 0, then the interface addresses are 3/0/0 and 3/0/1 (module slot 3, po rt adapter ba y 0, and interfaces 0 an d 1).

Identifying Interface Addresses

Note The FlexWAN module physical port address begins with slot 0, which differs from the conventional

Catalyst 6000 family port address, which begins with slot 1.

Cisco 7100 Series Routers Interface Addresses

In Cisco 7120 series router, port adapters are installed in port adapter slot 3. See Figure 1-8. In the Cisco 7140 series router, port adapters are installed in port adapter slot 4. See Figure 1-9.

The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-2. For example, if a single-port PA-E3 is installed on a Cisco 7120 router, the interface address would be 3/0. If a dual-port PA-2E3 is installed on a Cisco 7120 router, the interface addresses would be 3/0 and 3/1. If a single-port PA-E3 is installed on a Cisco 7140 router, the interface address would be 4/0. If a dual-port PA-2E3 is installed on a Cisco 7140 router, the interface addresses would be 4/0 and 4/1.

Cisco 7200 Series Routers and Cisco 7200 VXR Routers Interface Addresses

In Cisco 7200 series routers and Cisco 7200 VXR routers, port adapter slots are numbered from the lower left to the upper right, beginning with slot 1 and continuing through slot 2 for the Cisco 7202, slot 4 for the Cisco 7204 and Cisco 7204VXR, and slot 6 for the Cisco 7206 and Cisco 7206VXR. Port adapters can be installed in any available port adapter slot from 1 through 6 (depending on the number of slots in the router). (Slot 0 is reserved for the I/O controller.) See Figure 1-10.

Identifying Interface Addresses

Cisco uBR7200 Series Routers Interface Addresses

In the Cisco uBR7223 router, only one slot accepts port adapters and it is numbered slot 1. In the Cisco uBR7246 router and Cisco uBR7246VXR router, port adapters can be installed in two port

adapter slots (slot1 and slot 2). Slot 0 is always reserved for the I/O controller—if present. See

Figure 1-11.

The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-2. For example, if a single-port PA-E3 is installed in slot 1of a Cisco uBR7223 series router, the interface address would be 1/0. If a dual-port PA-2E3 is installed in slot 1of a Cisco uBR7223 series router, the interface addresses would be 1/0 and 1/1. If the single-port PA-E3 were installed in slot 2 of a Cisco uBR7246 or Cisco uBR7246VXR router, the interface address would be 2/0. If the dual-port PA-2E3 were installed in slot 2 of a Cisco uBR7246 or Cisco uBR7246VXR router, the interface addresses would be 2/0 and 2/1.

Cisco 7201 Router Interface Addresses

In the Cisco 7201 router, only one slot accepts port adapters and it is numbered as slot 1. See

Figure 1-12.

Chapter 1 Overview

Cisco 7301 Router Interface Addresses

In the Cisco 7301 router, only one slot accepts port adapters and it is numbered as slot 1. See

Figure 1-13.

Cisco 7304 PCI Port Adapter Carrier Card Interface Addresses

In the Cisco 7304 router, port adapters are installed in a Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card, which installs in Cisco 7304 router module slots 2 through 5. The port adapter slot number is the same as the module slot number. See Figure 1-15.

The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format module-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-2. For example, if a single-port PA-E3 is installed in the Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card in Ci sco 7304 router module slot 3, t he interface address would be 3/0. If a dual-port PA-2E3 is installed in the Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card in Cisco 7304 router module slot 3, the interface addresses would be 3/0 and 3/1.

Cisco 7401ASR Router Interface Addresses

In the Cisco 7401ASR router, only one slot accepts port adapters and it is numbered as slot 1. See

Figure 1-12.

Cisco 7000 Series Routers and Cisco 7500 Series Routers VIP Interface Addresses

In Cisco 7000 series routers and Cisco 7500 series routers, port adapters are installed on a versatile interface processor (VIP), which installs in interface processor slots 0 through 12 (depending on the number of slots in the router). The port adapter can be installed in either bay (port adapter slot 0 or 1) on the VIP. See Figure 1-17, and Figure 1-18.

The interface address for the VIP is composed of a three-part number in the format interface-processor-slot-number/port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-2.

The first number identifies the slot in which the VIP is installed (slot 0 through 12, depending on the number of slots in the router).

The second number identifies the bay (port adapter slo t) on the VI P in which the port adapt er is installed (0 or 1). The bays are numbered from left to right on the VIP.

The third number identifies the physical port number (interface port number) on the port adapter. The port numbers always begin at 0 and are numbered from left to right. The number of additional ports depends on the number of ports on the port adapter. The PA-E3 is a single-port port adapter, therefore the port is always 0. The PA-2E3 is a dual-port port adapter, therefore the port can be 0 or 1.

For example, if a single-port PA-E3 is installed in a VIP in interface processor slot 3, port adapter slot 1, the interface address would be 3/1/0 (interface processor slot 3, port adapter slot 1, and interface 0). If a dual-port PA-2E3 is installed in a VIP in interface processor slot 3, port adapter slot 1, the interface addresses would be 3/1/0 and 3/1/1 (interface processor slot 3, port adapter slot 1, and interfaces 0 and

1).

Note Although the processor slots in the seven-slot Cisco 7000 and Cisco 7507 chassis and the thirteen-slot

Cisco 7513 and Cisco 7576 chassis are vertically orient ed and those in the fi ve-slot Cisco 701 0 and Cisco 7505 chassis are horizontally oriented, all Cisco 7000 series routers and Cisco 7500 series routers use the same method for slot and port numbering.

Caution The VIP requi res that the host Cisco 7000 series ro uter hav e the RSP7000 and RSP7000CI installed. The

VIP does not operate properly with the Route Processor (RP), Switch Processor (SP), or Silicon Switch Processor (SSP) installed in the host Cisco series router.

Software and Hardware Requirements

The P A-E3 is conside red a high-bandwidth port adapter; therefore at a minimum, Cisco recommends that the PA-E3 be installed on the VIP or Catalyst RSM/VIP2-15 motherboard (with 1 MB of SRAM and 16 MB of DRAM). Installation of the PA-E3 on the VIP (with 512 KB of SRAM and 8 MB of DRAM) is not recommended.

Note The Catalyst RSM/VIP2, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, the VIP, and the Cisco 7304 PCI

Port Adapter Carrier Card support online insertion and removal (OIR), but individual port adapters do not. To replace port adapters, you must first remove the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module , t he VI P, or the Cisco 7304 PCI Port Adapter Carrier Card from the chassi s an d th en replace port adapters as required.

OIR is supported for port adapters in the Cisco 7100 series routers, Cisco 7200 series routers, Cisco uBR7200 series routers, Cisco 7201 router, Cisco 7301 router, and Cisco 7401ASR router.

In the Cisco 7000 series routers, Cisco 7100 series routers, Cisco 7500 series routers, and Cisco uBR7200 series routers, and Catalyst 5000 and 6000 f ami ly switches, there are no restrictions on slot locations or sequence.

One PA-E3 or PA-2E3 can be installed in the Cisco 7304 PCI Port Adapter Carri er Card; the Cisco 7 304 PCI Port Adapter Carrier Card installs in Cisco 7304 router module slots 2 through 5.

In the Cisco 7200 series routers, there are specific configuration guidelines that must be observed for high-bandwidth port adapters.For specif ic Cisco 7200 series hardware conf iguration information and for memory configuration guidelines for Cisco 7200 series routers, refer to the document Cisco 7200 Series Port Adapter Hardware Configuration Guidelines at the following URL:

Safety Guidelines

Electrical Equipment Guidelines

Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:

• Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the emergency

power-off switch for the room in which you are working.

• Disconnect all power and external cables before moving a chassis.

• Do not work alone when potentially hazardous conditions exist and never assume that power has

been disconnected from a circuit; a lways check.

• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.

Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

Telephone Wiring Guidelines

Use the following guidelines when wo rking with any equipmen t that is connected to telephone wiring or to other network cabling:

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet

locations.

Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation

• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or termin als unless the teleph one line has been

disconnected at the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic cards or components are improperly handled, results in complete or intermittent failures. Port adapters and processor modules consist of printed circuit boards that are fixed in metal carriers. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the board from ESD, use a preventive antistatic strap during handling.

The following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:

• Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.

• Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unfinished chassis surface.

• When installing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to

properly seat the bus connectors in the backplane or midplane. These devices prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the system, and help to ensure that bus connectors are properly seated.

• When removing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to

release the bus connectors from the backplane or midplane.

• Handle carriers by available handles or edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards or

connectors.

2-10

• Place a removed component board-side-up on an antistat ic surface or in a static shielding co ntainer.

If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding container.

PA-E3 Serial Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

OL-3502-04

Page 43

Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation

• Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects

components from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

• Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier.

Caution For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement s hould be

between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohm).

FCC Class A Compliance

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A di gital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

You can determ ine whe ther you r equipm ent is ca using interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

FCC Class A Compliance

• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is,

make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits co ntroll ed b y different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Note The P A-E3 port adapter has been designed to meet these requirements. Modif ications to this product that

are not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc., could void the various approv als and neg ate your authori ty to operate the product.

Handling Port Adapters

Each port adapter circuit board is mounted to a metal carrier and is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.

CHAPTER

OL-3502-04

Note When a port adapter slot is not in use, a blank por t adapt er mu st fill the empty slot to allow the router or

switch to conform to electromagnetic interference (EMI) emissions requirements and to allow proper airflow across the port adapters. If you plan to install a new port adapter in a slot that is not in use, you must first remove the blank port adapter.

Caution When powering off the router, wait a minimum of 30 seconds before powering it on again.

Caution Alw ays handle the port adapter b y the carrier edges and handle; ne ver to uch the port adapter components

or connector pins. (See Figure 3-1.)

Online Insertion and Removal

Several platforms support online insertion and removal (OIR) of port adapters; therefore, you do not have to power down routers when removing and replacing a PA-E3 or PA-2E3 in the Cisco 7100 series routers, Cisco 7 200 series routers, Cisco 7200 VXR routers, Cisco uBR7200 series routers, Cisco 7201 router, Cisco 7301 router, or Cisco 7 401ASR router.

Although the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, FlexW AN module, Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card, and VIP support OIR, individual port adapters do not. To replace port adapters in the Catalyst 5000 switches, Catalyst 6000 switches, Cisco 7304 router, or Cisco 7000 or 7500 series routers, you must first remove the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, FlexWAN module, Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card, or VIP from the chassis and then install or replace port adapters as required. If a blank port adapter is installed on the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, FlexWAN module, Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card, or VIP on which you want to install a new port adapter, you must first remove the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, FlexWAN module, Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card, or VIP from the chassis, and then remove the blank port adapter.

Chapter 3 Removing and Installing Port Adapters

H6420

3-2

Caution To prevent system problems, do not remove port adapters from the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, FlexWAN

module, Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card, or VIP or attempt to install other port adapters on the motherboard when the system is operating. To install or replace port adapters, first remove the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, FlexWAN module, Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card, or VIP from its interface processor slot.

It is wise to gracefully shut do wn the system before removing a port adapter that has active traf fic moving through it. Removing a port adapter while traffic is flowing through the ports can cause system disruption. Once the port adapter is inserted, the ports can be brought back up.

Note As you disengage the port adapter from th e rout er or switch, OIR administr at ively shuts down all active

interfaces in the port adapter.

OIR allows you to install and replace port adapters and service adapters (carrier cards, FlexWAN modules, and VIPs) while the router is operating; you do not need to notify the software or shut down the system power, although you should not run traffic through the port adapter you are removing while it is being removed. OIR is a method that is seamless to end users on the network, maintains all routing information, and preserves sessions.

PA-E3 Serial Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

OL-3502-04

Page 47

Chapter 3 Removing and Installing PortAdapters

The following is a functional description of OIR for background information only; for specific procedures for installing and replacing a PA-E3 or PA-2E3 in a supported platform, refer to the “Port

Adapter Removal and Installation” section on page 3-4.

Each port adapter has a bus connector that connects it to the router . The connector h as a set of tiered pins in three lengths that se nd sp ecific sign als to t he syst em a s t hey make con tac t w ith the po rt ad ap ter. The system assesses the signals it receives and the order in which it receives them to determine if a port adapter is being removed from or introduced to the system. From these signals, the system determines whether to reinitialize a new interface or to shut down a disconnected interface.

Specifically , when you insert a port adapter , the longest pi ns make contact with the port adapter f irst, and the shortest pins make contact last. The system recognizes the signals and the sequence in which it receives them.

When you remove or insert a port adapter, the pins send signals to notify the system of changes. The router then performs the following procedure:

1. Rapidly scans the system for configuration ch anges.

2. Initializes newly inserted port adapters or administratively shuts down any vacant interfaces.

3. Brings all previously configured interfaces on the port adapter back to their previously installed

state. Any newly inserted interface is put in th e administrati v ely shutdown state, as if it was present (but not configured) at boot time. If a similar port adapter type is reinserted into a slot, its ports are configured and brought online up to the port count of the originally installed port adapter of that type.

Warnings and Cautions

Note Before you begin installation, read Chapter 2, “Preparing for Installation,” for a list of parts and tools

required for installation.

Warnings and Cautions

Observe the following warnings and cautions when installing or removing port adapters.

Caution Do not slide a port adapter all the way into the slot until you have connected all required cables. Trying

to do so disrupts normal operation of the router or switch.

Note If a port adapter lever or other retaining mechanism does not move to the locked position, the port

adapter is not completely seated in the midplane. Careful ly pull the port adapter halfw ay out of th e sl ot , reinsert it, and move the port adapter lever or other mechanism to the locked position.

Caution To prevent jamming the carrier between the upper and the lower edges of the port adapter slot, and to

ensure that the edge connector at the rear of the port adapter mates with the connection at the rear of the port adapter slot, make certain that the carrier is positioned correctly, as shown in the cutaway illustrations in the “Port Adapter Removal and Installation ” sectio n on page 3-4.

Chapter 3 Removing and Installing PortAdapters

Connecting a PA-E3 Cable

On a PA -E3(=) you use only one coaxial cable, an d on a PA-2E3(=) you can use one or two coaxial cables.

Caution You can attach only an EIA/TIA-612 and EIA/TIA-613 75-ohm coaxial cable to the PA-E3 installed in

your router. Attaching a compact serial cab le of an othe r interf ace ty pe to th e port adapter could damage your router or the hardware at the network end of the cable.

To connect a coaxial cable to a PA-E3, follow these steps:

Step 1 Attach the coaxial cable directly to the receptacle on the PA-E3 and tighten the BNC connectors. (See

Figure 3-3.)

Note Port adapters have a handle attached, but this handle is not shown to allow a full detailed view

of the faceplate.

Connecting a PA-E3 Cable

Step 2

When attaching the cable receptacle on the PA-E3, use the cable-management bracket that shipped with your router for extra strain relief.

Configuring the PA-E3

To continue your PA-E3 port adapter installation, you must configure the serial interfaces. The instructions that follow apply to all supported platforms. Minor differences between the platforms—with Cisco IOS software commands—are noted.

This chapter contains the following sections:

• Using the EXEC Command Interpreter, page 4-1

• Configuring the Interfaces, page 4-2

• Customizing the PA-E3, page 4-11

• Checking the Configuration, page 4-12

Using the EXEC Command Interpreter

You modify the configuration of your router through the software command interpreter called the EXEC (also called enable mode). You must enter the privileged level of the EXEC command interpreter with the enable command before you can use the configure command to configure a ne w interf ace or change the existing configuration of an interface. The system prompts you for a password if one has been set.

The system prompt for the privileged level ends with a pound sign (#) instead of an angle bracket (>). At the console terminal, use the following procedure to ent er the pr ivileged level:

CHAPTER

OL-3502-04

Step 1 At the user-level EXEC prompt, enter the enable command. The EXEC prompts you for a

privileged-level password as follows:

Router> enable

Password:

Step 2 Enter the password (the password is case sensitive). For security purposes, the password is not displayed.

When you enter the correct password, the system displays the privileged-level system prompt (#):

Router#

To configure the new interfaces, proceed to the “Configuring the Interfaces” section on page 4-2.

PA-E3 Serial Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

4-1

Page 64

Configuring the Interfaces

After you verify that the new PA-E3 is installed correctly (the enabled LED goes on), use the privileged-level configure command to configure the new interfaces. Have the following information available:

• Protocols you plan to route on each new interface

• IP addresses, if you plan to configure the interfaces for IP routing

• Bridging protocols you plan to use

• Clock timing source you plan to use for each new interface and clock speeds for external timing.

If you installed a new PA-E3 or if you want to change the configuration of an existing interface, you must enter configuration mode to configure the new interfaces. If you replaced a PA-E3 that was previously configured, the system recognizes the new interfaces and brings each of them up in their existing configurations.

For a summary of the configuration options available and instructions for configuring interfaces on a P A-E3, refer to t he appropriate conf iguration publications listed in t he “Related Documentation” section

on page viii.

Y ou e xecute configurat ion commands from the pri vileged lev el of the EXEC command interpreter , which usually requires password access. Contact your system administrator, if necessary, to obtain password access. (See the “Using the EXEC Command Interpreter” section on page 4-1 for an explanation of the privileged level of the EXEC.)

This section contains the following subsections:

Chapter 4 Configuring the PA-E3

• Shutting Down an Interface, page 4-2

• Performing a Basic Interface Configuration, page 4-8

• Configuring Cyclic Redundancy Checks, page 4-10

Shutting Down an Interface

Before you remove an interface that you will not replace, replace a compact coaxial cable, or replace port adapters, use the shutdown command to shut down (disable) the interfaces to prevent anomalies when you reinstall the new or reconfigured interface processor. When you shut down an interface, it is designated administratively down in the show command displays.

Follow these steps to shut down an interface:

Step 1 Enter the privileged lev el of the EXEC command inter preter (also call ed en able mode). (See t he “Using

the EXEC Command Interpreter” section on page 4-1 for instructions.)

Step 2 At the privileged-level prompt, enter configuration mode and specify that the console terminal is the

source of the configuration subcommands, as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)#

Step 3 Shut down interfaces by entering the interface serial subcommand (followed by the interface address o f

the interface), and then enter the shutdown command.

4-2

When you have finished, press Ctrl-Z— hold down the Control key while you press Z—or enter end or exit to exit configuration mode and return to the EXEC command interpreter.

Configuring the Interfaces

For complete descriptions of software configuration commands, refer to the publications listed in the

“Related Documentation” section on page viii.

Performing a Basic Interface Configuration

Following are instructions for a basic configuration, which include enabling an interface, specifying IP routing, and setting up external timing on a DCE interface. You might also need to enter other configuration subcommands, depending on the requirements for your system configuration and the protocols you plan to route on the interface. For complete descriptions of configuration subcommands and the configuration options available for serial interfaces, refer to the appropriate software documentation.

In the following procedure, press the Return ke y after each step unless otherwise noted. At any time you can exit the privileged level and return to the user level by entering disable at the prompt as follows:

Router# disable

Router>

Chapter 4 Configuring the PA-E3

Step 1 Enter configuration mode and specify that the console terminal is the source of the configuration

subcommands, as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)#

Step 2 Specify the first interface to configure by entering the interface serial subcommand, followed by the

interface address of the interface you plan to configure. (The command for your port adapter may be different, for example, interface atm.)

Table 4-3 provides example of the interface serial subcommand for the supported platforms.

Step 3 Assign an IP address and subnet mask to the interface (if IP routing is ena bled on the system) by using

the ip address subcommand, as in the following example:

Router(config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.0 10.255.255.255

Step 4 Add any additional configuration subcommands required to enable routing protocols and set the

interface characteristics.

Step 5 Re-enable t he interfaces us ing the no shutdown command. (See the “Shutting Down an Interface”

section on page 4-2.)

Step 6 Configure all additional port adapter interfaces as required. Step 7 After including all of the configuration subcommands to complete your configuration, press

Ctrl-Z—hold down the Control ke y while you press Z—or enter end or exit to e xit con f igurat ion mode and return to the EXEC command interpreter prompt.

Configuring the Interfaces

Step 8 Write the new configuration to NVRAM as follows:

Router# copy running-config startup-config [OK] Router#

This completes the procedure fo r creating a basic configuration. The PA-E3 supports internal or external clocking, and the clock rate is fixed at 32,064 kbit/s per ITU

G.703 and cannot be changed.

Configuring Cyclic Redundancy Checks

Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is an error-checking technique that uses a calculated numeric value to detect errors in transmitted data. All interfaces use a 16-bit CRC (CRC-CITT) b y default but al so support a 32-bit CRC. The sender of a data frame calculates the frame check sequence (FCS). Before it sends a frame, the sender appends the FCS value to the message. The receiver recalculates the FCS and compares its calculation to the FCS from the sender. If there is a difference between the two calculations, the receiver assumes that a transmission error occurred and sends a request to the sender to resend the frame.

Chapter 4 Configuring the PA-E3

Table 4-4 summarizes CRC commands.

Table 4-4 CRC Commands

Purpose Command Example

Enable 32-bit CRC. crc size The example enables 32-bit CRD on a serial interface:

Router(config)# interface serial 3/0 Router(config-if)# crc 32

Return to default 16-bit CRC.

no crc size The example disables 32-bit CRD on a serial interface a nd returns to the default

16-bit CRC:

Router(config)# interface serial 3/0 Router(config-if)# no crc 32

Enable 32-bit CRC using the crc 32 command. Before you can enable 32-bit CRC, you must use the interface serial command (followed by the interface address of the interface) to select the interface on

which you want to enable 32-bit CRC. This co mmand functions in the same way on all supported platforms.

In the example that follows, 32-bit CRC is specified:

Router(config-if)# crc 32

The preceding command example applies to all systems in which the PA-E3 is supported. Use the no crc 32 command to disable CRC-32 and return the interface to the default CRC-16

(CRC-CITT) setting.

4-10

When you have finished, press Ctrl-Z— hold down the Control key while you press Z—or enter end or exit to exit configuration mode and return to the EXEC command interpreter prompt.

Then write the new configurati on to NVRAM using the copy running-conf ig startup-conf ig command. For command descriptions, refer to the Conf iguration Fundamentals Conf iguration Guide on Cisco.com.

Chapter 4 Configuring the PA-E3

Customizing the PA-E3

Depending on the requirements for your system configuration and the protocols you plan to route on the interface, you might need to enter conf iguration commands t o customize the PA-E3. Most of the features you can customize have def ault values that wi ll probably suit your en vironment and need not be changed. However, if you need to customize your configuration, see the following sections:

• Setting the Bandwidth, page 4-11

• Defining the DSU Mode, page 4-11

• Defining Set Bit (National), page 4-12

• Enabling E3 Scrambling, page 4-12

• Specifying E3 Framing, page 4-12

Setting the Bandwidth

In interface configuration mode, reduce effective bandwidth (range of 22 to 34010 kilobits per second) by entering the dsu bandwidth configuration subcommand, as in the following ex ample:

router(config-if)# dsu bandwidth 16000

Customizing the PA-E3

Use the no form of this command to return to the default, 34010.

Note The local port configuration must match the remote port configuration. For example, if you reduce the

effective bandwidth to 16000 on the local port, you must do the same on the remote port.

Defining the DSU Mode

In interface configuration mode, define the DSU interoperability mode by entering the dsu mode [0 | 1] configuration subcommand, as in the following example:

router(config-if)# dsu mode 1

Use the no form of this command to return to the default, 0.

Note The local port configuration must match the remote port configuration. For example, if you define the

DSU interoperability mode as 1 on the local port, you must do the same on the remote port. You need to know what type of DSU is at the remote port to find out if it interoperates with the PA-E3. For E3 serial interfaces, specify mode 0 for connection from a PA-E3 to another PA-E3 or a Digital Link DSU (DL3100). Specify mode 1 for connection from a PA-E3 to a Kentrox DSU.

Also refer to the “Interoperability Guidelines for PA-E3 DSUs” section on page 1-20 section for information regarding DSU feature compatibilities.

Checking the Configuration

Defining Set Bit (National)

In interface configuration mode, define set bit in G751 frame (national bit) by entering the nati onal bit [0 | 1] configuration subcommand, as in the following example:

router(config-if)# national bit 1

Use the no form of this command to return to the default, which is 0.

Enabling E3 Scrambling

In interface configuration mode, enable E3 scrambling by entering the scramble configuration subcommand, as in the following example:

router(config-if)# scramble

Use the no form of this command to restore the default value, which is disabled.

Note The local port configuration must match the remote port configuration. For example, if you enable

scrambling on the local port, you must do the same on the remote port.

Chapter 4 Configuring the PA-E3

Specifying E3 Framing

In interface configuration mode, specify E3 framing by entering the framing {g751 | bypass} configuration subcommand, as in the following example:

router(config-if)# framing g751

Use the no form of this command to return to the default, which is G.751 framing.

Note If you use the bypass option, scrambli ng must be set to the d efault, d isabled; t he DSU mode must be set

to the default, 0; and the DSU bandwidth must be set to the default, 34010.

Checking the Configuration

After configuring the new interface, use the show commands to display the status of the new interface or all interfaces, and use the ping and loopback commands to check co nnectivity. This section includes the following subsections:

• Using show Commands to Verify the New Interface Status, page 4-13

• Using the ping Command to Verify Network Connectivity, page 4-29

VIP in Cisco 7000 Series Routers or Cisco 7500 Series Routers—Example Output of the show interfaces Command

Following are examples of the show interfaces command used with the VIP2. In these examples, the eight serial interfaces (0 to 7) are on a port adapter in port adapter slot 1 of a VIP2 in interface processor slot 3; also, most of the status information for each interface is omitted. (Interfaces are administrati vely shut down until you enable them.)

Chapter 4 Configuring the PA-E3

Using the ping Command to Verify Network Connectivity

Using the ping command, you can verify that an interface port is functioning properly. This section provides a brief description of this command. Refer to the publications listed in the “Related

Documentation” section on page viii for detailed command de scriptions and examples.

The ping command sends echo request packets out to a remote de vice at an IP address that you specify. After sending an echo request, the system waits a specified time for the remote device to reply. Each echo reply is displayed as an exclamation point (!) on the console terminal; each request that is not returned before the specified timeout is displayed as a period (.). A series of exclamation points (!!!!!)

indicates a good connection; a series of periods (.....) or the messages [timed out] or [failed] indicate a

bad connection. Following is an example of a successful ping command to a remote server with the address 10.0.0.10:

Router# ping 10.0.0.10 <Return> Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echoes to 10.0.0.10, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/15/64 ms Router#

Checking the Configuration

If the connection fails, verify that you hav e the correct IP address f or the destinatio n and th at the d evice is active (powered on), and repeat the ping command.

Proceed to the next section, “Using loopback Commands,” to finish checking network connectivity.

Using loopback Commands

Use the loopback {dte | local | network {line | payload} command to troubleshoot the E3 serial port adapter at the physical interface level. The command loops all packets from the E3 interface either back to the interface or from the network back out toward the network. Use the no form of the command to remove the loop.

The following examples of the loopback {dte | local | network {line | payload} command configure loopback modes on the single interface (interface 0) of a one-port E3 serial port adapter in port adapter slot 0 of a VIP2 in chassis slot 10 of a Cisco 7500 series router:

To set the interface into loopback data terminal equipment (DTE) mode, which loops the router output data back toward the router (after the line interface unit), use the loopback dte command as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. router(config)# interface serial 10/0/0 router(config-if)# loopback dte

To set the interface into local loopb ack mode, which l oops th e r outer ou tput dat a back toward the router at the framer, use the loopback local command as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. router(config)# interface serial 10/0/0 router(config-if)# loopback local

Checking the Configuration

To set the interface into network line loopback mode, which loops the data back toward the network (before the framer), use the loopback network line command as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. router(config)# interface serial 10/0/0 router(config-if)# loopback network line

T o set the interface into network payload loopback mode, which loops just the payload data back toward the network at the E3 framer, use the loopback network payload command as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. router(config)# interface serial 10/0/0 router(config-if)# loopback network payload
