If the MLC is a replacement, use the show interfaces command or the show controllers command to
verify the status of the modular port adapters (MPAs). See
Line Card and Modular Port Adapter Status, page
If you replaced a MLC with another MLC with a different MPA installed, the system recognizes the
interfaces on the previously configured MPA but does not recognize the new MPA interfaces. The new
interfaces remain in the shutdown state until you configure them.
When the interfaces are up, check the activity of each MPA by observing the carrier LED.

If the carrier LED fails to go on and a cable is connected to the interface port, check the cable connection

Using the ping Command to Verify Network Connectivity
This section provides brief descriptions of the ping command. The ping command allows you to verify
that a MPA port is functioning properly and to check the path between a specific port and connected
devices at various locations on the network. After you verify that the system and the MLC have booted
successfully and are operational, you can use this command to verify the status of the MPA ports. See

A9K-MOD160G, and the Cisco ASR 9000 A9K-MOD80G-H. For more information on command

instructions.
Note
If you move the MPA to a different subslot in the MLC and it works, there are probably
issues with the subslot in the MLC. Contact a service representative re: the broken
subslot. If you test the MPA in another MLC and it works, the original MLC probably
has some issues and needs troubleshooting. Contact a service representative to report
the problem and obtain further instructions.
