Supported Features
This section provides a list of some of the primary features supported by the SIP and SPA hardware and software.
SIP-400 Features
The SIP-400 is a carrier card designed to process packets between different Shared Port Adapters (SPAs) and the Cisco 12000.
•
Online insertion and removal (OIR)
•
Supports up to four single-height or two double-height Shared Port Adaptors (SPAs).
•
Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) upgrade support
The SIP-400 supports the standard FPGA upgrade methods for the Cisco 12000 Series router.
•

Displaying the SPA Hardware Type
To verify the SPA hardware type that is installed in your Cisco 12000 Series router, you can use the show diagbus command or the show interfaces command (can be used only if the interface has been configured). There are several other commands on the Cisco 12000 series routers that also provide SPA hardware information.
Table 8-1 shows the hardware description that appears in the show command output for each type of SPA that is supported on the Cisco 12000 series router.
