SIP and SPA Addressing Format

Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCB introduces a new addressing format to specify locations of SIPs and SPAs on a Cisco uBR10012 router. This format is different from the addressing format used in Cisco IOS Releases 12.2(33)SCA and 12.3BC. This change applies to the CLIs that use a modular cable interface, a wideband cable interface, or a controller modular cable as an argument.

Table 4-1 lists the SIP and SPA addressing format used in different Cisco IOS releases.

Table 4-1 SIP and SPA Addressing Format

Cisco IOS Release	Syntax	Description
12.2(33)SCB and later	slot or slot/subslot for SIPs and slot/bay/port for SPAs	The SIP and SPA CLI uses this format to specify SIPs or any SPA resources on a SIP. For example, the channel 8 of a SPA in bay 1 of a SIP in slot 1 is specified as interface modular-cable 1/1/0:8.
12.2(33)SCA and 12.3BC	slot/subslot for SIPs and slot/subslot/bay for SPAs	The SIP and SPA CLI uses this format to specify SIPs or any SPA resources on a SIP. For example, the channel 8 of a SPA in bay 1 of a SIP in slot 1 is specified as interface modular-cable 1/0/1:8.

Identifying the Location of the Cisco Wideband SIP and Cisco Wideband SPA

This section describes how to specify the physical locations of the Cisco Wideband SIP and Cisco Wideband SPA on the Cisco uBR10012 router within the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) to configure or monitor those devices.

Specifying the Location for the Cisco Wideband SIP

In Cisco IOS commands, the Cisco Wideband SIP is designated by its location on a Cisco uBR10012 router. The location is specified in the form:

•slot/subslot (for Cisco IOS Releases 12.2(33)SCA and 12.3BC)

•slot or slot/subslot (for Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCB and later)

On the Cisco uBR10012 router, the Cisco Wideband SIP occupies two adjacent full-height line card slots: either slots 1/0 and 2/0, or slots 3/0 and 4/0. On the Cisco IOS CLI, the location of the Cisco Wideband SIP is specified as follows:

•If the Cisco Wideband SIP occupies slots 1/0 and 2/0, the location for the Cisco IOS CLI is specified as slot/subslot 1/0.

•If the Cisco Wideband SIP occupies slots 3/0 and 4/0, the location for the Cisco IOS CLI is specified as slot/subslot 3/0.

---

Note If the Cisco Wideband SIP is moved from slots 1/0 and 2/0 to slots 3/0 and 4/0, the OIR will fail. To prevent this failure, the card commands for the Cisco Wideband SIP in slot/subslot 1/0 and Cisco Wideband SPAs in slot/subslot 1/0 must be removed.

If the Cisco Wideband SIP is moved from slots 3/0 and 4/0 to slots 1/0 and 2/0, the OIR will fail. To prevent this failure, the card commands for Cisco Wideband SIP in slot/subslot 3/0 and Cisco Wideband SPAs in slot/subslot 3/0 must be removed.

For information about card commands, see the "Optional Configuration Tasks" section.

---

---

Note When the Cisco uBR10012 router is used as a wideband CMTS, Half-Height Gigabit Ethernet (HHGE) line cards and the associated slot splitters must be installed in slot 3 or slot 4 in the router. Therefore, the Cisco Wideband SIP is installed in slots 1/0 and 2/0.

---

Figure 4-1 shows the slot numbering on the Cisco uBR10012 router.

Figure 4-1 Cisco uBR10012 Router Slot Numbering

Some Cisco IOS commands, such as show diag, allow you to display information about a Wideband SIP. These commands require you to specify the chassis location for the SIP that you want information about. For example, to display status and information about the Cisco Wideband SIP installed in slot/subslot 1/0, enter the following command:

Router# show diag 1/0

Specifying the Location for the Cisco Wideband SPA

In Cisco IOS commands, the Cisco Wideband SPA is designated by its location in a SIP on a Cisco uBR10012 router. The location is specified in the form:

•slot/subslot/bay (for Cisco IOS Releases 12.2(33)SCA and 12.3BC)

•slot/bay/port (for Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCB and later)

A bay number identifies the location of each Wideband SPA in the Cisco Wideband SIP. Bay numbers in the Cisco Wideband SIP are shown in Figure 4-2. The Cisco Wideband SPA can be installed in bay 0 or bay 1. Therefore, on the Cisco uBR10012 router when the Cisco Wideband SIP is installed in slot/subslot 1/0, the slot/subslot/bay locations for the two Cisco Wideband SPAs are 1/0/0 and 1/0/1.

Figure 4-2 Cisco Wideband SPA Bay Numbering in Cisco Wideband SIP

Each Cisco Wideband SPA has two Gigabit Ethernet ports: one active and one redundant. The active port is used to send downstream traffic to one or more edge QAM devices. The individual Gigabit Ethernet ports on the Cisco Wideband SPA are not specified on the Cisco IOS CLI.

Some Cisco IOS commands, such as show diag, allow you to display information about a Cisco Wideband SPA. These commands require you to specify the chassis location for the SPA that you want information about. For example, to display status and information about the Cisco Wideband SPA installed in slot/subslot/bay 1/0/1, enter the following command:

Router# show diag 1/0/1

Identifying the Location of a Cisco SIP-600

This section describes how to specify the physical locations for a Cisco SIP-600 and its SPAs on the Cisco uBR10012 router within the command-line interface (CLI) to configure or monitor these devices.

Specifying the Slot Location for a Cisco SIP-600

The Cisco SIP-600 is a full-height line card that occupies two physical slots in a Cisco uBR10012 router. Each chassis supports a maximum of two SIPs that can be inserted in the following slots:

•SIP slot 1

•SIP slot 3

Some commands allow you to display information about a SIP and its SPAs, such as the show inventory and show diag commands. For example, to display information about the SIP installed in chassis slot 1 and its SPAs, use the show diag command.

Specifying the SPA Location in a Cisco SIP-600

A SIP-600 supports four bays (subslots) for the installation of SPAs. The SPA bays are numbered from 0 to 3 on the Cisco SIP-600. The number for each SPA bay is indicated by a small numeric label on the SIP faceplate.

SPAs on a Cisco uBR10012 router use an addressing format that specifies the physical location of the SIP, SPA, and interface in the format slot/bay/port, where:

•slot—Specifies the chassis slot number where the SIP is installed.

•bay—Specifies the secondary slot of the SIP where the SPA is installed.

•port—Specifies the interface number that you want to select on the SPA.

To display information about a SPA, use the show diag, show hw-module subslot, and show inventory commands.

Required Configuration Tasks

There are no required configuration tasks for the Cisco Wideband SIP and Cisco SIP-600.

Optional Configuration Tasks

Preprovisioning is an optional configuration task for the Cisco Wideband SIP and Cisco SIP-600. Preprovisioning on the Cisco uBR10012 router allows you to configure SIPs and SPAs without their physical presence.

Valid values are 1 to 3. •subslot—Identifies the secondary slot for the Cisco Wideband SIP. Valid values are 0 or 1 (0 is always specified). •card type—Specifies the type of card for which to preprovision the slot. 2jacket-1 is the card type for the Cisco Wideband SIP.

Use the following command to preprovision a Cisco Wideband SPA on a Cisco Wideband SIP:

Resetting a SIP

To reset a SIP, use the following command in privileged EXEC configuration mode:

Command	Purpose
Router# hw-module subslot slot/subslot reset	Turns power off and on to the SIP in the specified slot and subslot, where: •slot—Specifies the slot where the Cisco Wideband SIP resides. On the Cisco uBR10012 router, slot 1 and slot 3 can be used for the Cisco Wideband SIP. •subslot—Specifies the subslot where the Cisco Wideband SIP resides. On the Cisco uBR10012 router, subslot 0 is always specified.

Resetting a SIP is not usually done but may sometimes be useful when troubleshooting a failed SIP.
