思科7500系列路由器注意事项

甲骨鱼

Q. What happens if I ** a Versatile Interface Processor (VIP) without a Port Adapter (PA)?
A. A VIP without a PA is not a supported hardware configuration, and can heavily impact the stability of the router. When you ** VIPs without PAs, the VIPs start to crash continuously, and heavily disrupt the communication between the Route/Switch Processor (RSP) and the other VIPs.
A typical side-effect of these disruptions are VIPs, known to be working fine, that start to show VIP Controller Memory Size: Unknown. The RSP is unable to recover ** this situation. In order to fix this problem, perform a reload, after you remove the VIP that causes the disruption.

今天公司到了两块VIP4-50，不带PA插入思科7507路由器，在Show diag时，出现VIP Controller Memory Size: Unknown的提示，我在思科官方网站上面找到上述资料，希望有类似情况的朋友关注，记住VIP一定要带PA才能插入路由器中！
