Chapter 6 Configuring the Supervisor Engine 2 and the Switch Fabric Module
Monitoring the Switch Fabric Module
Caution If you enter the fabric required command on a router that does not have a Switch Fabric Module
installed, all modules except the supervisor engine turn off.
When configuring fabric-required mode, note the following information:
• If you boot the router with fabric-required mode configured but without a Switch Fabric Module
installed, only the supervisor engine receives power; no switching modules power up.
• When the router is operating with fabric-required mode configured and a Switch Fabric Module
installed, if you remove the switch fabric module or if it fails, the router removes power from all
switching modules; only the supervisor engine remains active.
• When the router is operating with fabric-required mode configured and with redundant Switch
Fabric Modules installed, if you remove both switch fabric modules or if both fail, the router
removes power from all switching modules; only the supervisor engine remains active.
Configuring an LCD Message
To configure a message for display on the LCD, perform this task:
When configuring a message for display on the LCD, note the following information:
• The d parameter is a delimiting character. You cannot use the delimiting character in the message.
The delimiter is a character of your choice—a pound sign (#), for example.
• You can use the following tokens, in the form $(token), in the message text:
– $(hostname)—Displays the router’s host name.
– $(domain)—Displays the router’s domain name.
Monitoring the Switch Fabric Module
The Switch Fabric Module supports a number of show commands for monitoring purposes. A fully
automated startup sequence brings the module online and runs the connectivity diagnostics on the ports.
