Starting the System and Observing Initial Conditions
After installing your Cisco 7200 VXR router and connecting cables, start the router as follows:
At the rear of the router, place the power switch on the power supply in the on (|) position. Repeat this
Step 1
if a second power supply is installed. The green OK LED on the power supply turns on.
Note
Listen for the fans; you should immediately hear them operating.
Step 2
Step 3
During the boot process, observe the system LEDs. The LEDs on most of the port adapters go on and off
in irregular sequence. If the Port Adapter Jacket Card is installed, observe its LEDs. Some may go on,
go out, and go on again for a short time. On the I/O controller, the IO power OK LED comes on
immediately.
Step 4
Observe the initialization process. When the system boot is complete (a few seconds), the network
processing engine or network services engine begins to initialize the port adapters and the I/O controller.
During this initialization, the LEDs on each port adapter behave differently (most flash on and off).
The enabled LED on each port adapter goes on when initialization is completed, and the console screen
displays a script and system banner similar to the following:
