when hooked into the console port it goes directly to the config menu. TCM will just error out saying it cannot find the chassis. I can ping it though. Paul Farber Farber Technology farber@admin.f-tech.net Ph 570-628-5303 Fax 570-628-5545 On Fri, 25 Feb 2000, Jeff Mcadams wrote:
Thus spake Paul Farber
have a 486 based ARC card w/6.1.17 on it.
I'm trying to bring it up via TCM and and 3 things happen that shouldn't.... i change the SNMP communities then do a 9 to save config, reboot, but old values are still there.
When the card boots up, does it give you a password prompt? If so, you'll need to type the current read-write SNMP community string configured on it...if you type the read-only one, you get read-only access on the console.
The TX light never blinks and I cannot get the ZMODEM download (where you are supposed to type AT{Z}) screen up no matter how many times I yank out the NAC.
You won't get that with the 486 based code. That only happens with the HiPer code bases (for the HiPer NMC, the code rev is 6.2.17). You need to get pcsdl and use that to push the code to the NMC card over the console (you'll need the sdl file also in this case...with a TCM download you usually don't need the sdl for the NMC upgrade...with pcsdl you will need it).
DIP 5 to on really does nothing either.
SInce the chassis is a NOT DSP based (has a dual PRI w/quads) what is the correct NMC version (6.0.9?)
6.0.9 will work if you don't have any HiPer equipment in there, but if you've got 16 megs of RAM and 8 megs of flash on the NMC, you might as well go with the 6.1.17...its the same code, just with the support for the HiPer cards added...someday down the road if you have this NMC card in a chassis with HiPer cards, you'll be wondering why it isn't working. :) -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456
