Installing and Configuring Processor Modules
MIP Configurations
Following are procedures for configuring T1 and E1 interfaces on the MIP.
Configuring the Interfaces
If you installed a new MIP or if you want to change the configuration of an existing controller, you
must enter the configuration mode. If you replaced the MIP that was previously configured, the
system will recognize the new MIP and bring it up in the existing configuration.
After you verify that the new MIP is installed correctly (the enabled LED is on), use the
privileged-level configure command to configure the new MIP controller. Be prepared with the
information you will need, such as the following:
•
•
•
•
•
Refer to the Router Products Configuration Guide and Router Products Command Reference
publications for a summary of the configuration options available and instructions for configuring
the MIP controller.
Configuring Jumper J6 on the E1 Port Adapter
By default, channelized E1 port adapters are set with capacitive coupling between the receive (Rx)
shield and chassis ground. This provides direct current (DC) isolation between the chassis and
external devices, as stated in the G.703 specification. Jumper J6 controls this function. To make
changes, remove the E1 port adapter from the mother board, place one of the spare jumpers on J6
pins one and two or pins two and three (refer to Table 5-11), and replace the port adapter on the
motherboard. Pin 1 of J6 is designated with a square. (See Figure 5-20.)
For procedures on removing the E1 port adapter from the MIP, refer to the section "Removing and
Replacing MIP Port Adapters" in this chapter.
