Supplement to DOC-784482= (Text Part Number 78-4482-08)
This document provides updated information for the PA-E3 Serial Port Adapter Installation and Configuration note. Read this note before configuring the PA-E3 port adapter on the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module.
This document contains the following sections:
On page v, in the "Objectives" section, add the following bullet:
On page vi, in the "Related Documentation" section, add the following bullet:
On page vii, replace the second bullet list from the bottom of the page with the following:
On page 1-1, in the "Port Adapter Overview" section, add the following bullet:
On page 1-2, replace the first two paragraphs with the following:
The one-port PA-E3 provides two network interfaces per VIP2 for Cisco 7000 series and Cisco 7500 series routers, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module in the Catalyst 6000 family switches, and the Catalyst RSM/VIP2 for the Catalyst 5000 family switches, and one high-speed interface on the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, and Cisco uBR7200 series routers.
The two-port PA-2E3 provides four network interfaces per VIP2 for Cisco 7000 series and Cisco 7500 series routers, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module in the Catalyst 6000 family switches, and the Catalyst RSM/VIP2 for Catalyst 5000 family switches, and two high-speed interfaces on the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, and Cisco uBR7200 series routers.
Also, replace the note with the following:
 |
Note The Catalyst RSM/VIP2, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, and the VIP2 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, or the VIP2 from the chassis and then replace port adapters as required. OIR is supported for port adapters in the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, and Cisco uBR7200 series routers. |
On page 1-3, add the following:
On page 1-4, in the "PA-E3 Port Adapter LEDs" section, replace the second and third bullets with the following:
On page 2-1, in the "Parts and Tools Required" section, add the following bullet:
On page 2-2, in the "Minimum Software and Hardware Requirements" section, add the following to Table 2-1:
| Platform | Recommended Minimum Cisco IOS Release |
|---|---|
Catalyst 6000 family switches with Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module
|
Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1)EX or later Catalyst 6000 family supervisor engine software release 5.4(1) or later |
On page 2-3, replace the note at the top of the page with the following:
|
Note The Catalyst RSM/VIP2, the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, and the VIP2 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, or the VIP2 from the chassis and then replace port adapters as required. OIR is supported for port adapters in the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, and Cisco uBR7200 series routers. |
Also, replace the first paragraph with the following:
In the Cisco 7000 series, Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7500 series, Cisco uBR7200 series routers and Catalyst 5000 and 6000 family switches, there are no restrictions on slot locations or sequence; however, in the Cisco 7200 series routers, there are specific configuration guidelines that must be observed for high-bandwidth port adapters.
Also, replace the third paragraph with the following:
To determine if your Cisco 7000 series, Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7500 series, Cisco 7200 series, or Cisco uBR7200 series router, Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, or Catalyst RSM/VIP2 is compatible with the PA-E3, use the show version command to display the current hardware configuration of the router, including the system software version that is currently loaded and running.
On page 8-2, in the "Identifying Port Adapter Slots and E3 Interface Port Numbers" section, add the following bullet:
On page 8-5, add the following subsection:
This section describes how to identify chassis slot, port adapter, and E3 interface port numbers on the Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module.
The physical port addresses specify the actual physical location of each interface port on the router interface processor end. (See Figure.) Each address is composed of a three-part number in the format module-number/port-adapter-bay/interface-port, as follows:
For example, the serial port on a PA-E3 in the first port adapter bay in a FlexWAN module installed in module slot 6 is numbered 6/0/0. (See Figure.) If you insert the PA-E3 in port adapter bay 1, this same port would be numbered 6/1/0. Port adapters can occupy either port adapter slot; there are no restrictions.
|
Note The FlexWAN module physical port address uses a zero- (0-) based port address, which differs from the conventional Catalyst 6000 family one- (1-) based port address. |
|
Note If you remove the FlexWAN module with the PA-E3 from module slot 6 and install it in module slot 3, the interface address becomes 3/0/0. |
On page 8-7, Step 2, add the following example:
For a Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, specify the interface to configure by entering the subcommand interface serial, followed by the mod_num/bay/port (module slot number, port adapter bay number, and interface port number). The example that follows is for the interface of the first port adapter on a Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module in interface processor slot 3:
Router(config)# interface serial 3/0/0
On page 8-11, add the following example:
For a Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, use the following example:
router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. router(config)# router(config)# interface serial 3/0/0 router(config-if)# crc 32 Ctrl-z
Also, in Step 3, add the following:
On page 8-12, Step 5, add the following:
For a Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, specify information that is specific to the new serial interface with the show controllers serial [type mod_num/bay/port] command, and verify that the first line of the display specifies the interface with the correct slot number.
On page 8-16, add the following example:
For a Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module, the show interfaces type mod_num/bay/port command displays status information (including the physical slot and port address) for the interfaces you specify. In this example, a one-port PA-E3 serial port adapter-configured Catalyst 6000 family FlexWAN module is in chassis slot 3, in port adapter slot 0.
