Router Hardware Installation
For hardware installation and configuration information for the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router, see the
Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Hardware Installation Guide. The guide includes
information on how to install, maintain, and replace router subsystems, such as cooling fans, power
supplies, chassis backplanes, and so on. In addition, the installation guide describes the router switch
fabric and how it affects operation of the line card, as well as line card slot locations, slot width, and
other requirements.
Cisco IOS XR Software Release and Hardware Revision Requirements
The line cards have certain Cisco IOS XR software requirements. Also, to ensure compatibility with the
software, your line cards should have a specific hardware revision number. The number is printed on a
label affixed to the component side of the card and is displayed by the show diag command.
