Log in

Describes the verification checks that you must perform after you log in to the Cisco NCS 1014 console so that you can confirm the default setup and correct any issue before further configuration.

A preliminary check for Cisco NCS 1014 is a post-login verification process that

  • involves running a set of commands to confirm the system has come up correctly,

  • checks the hardware inventory, the operational state of each card, and software image and firmware versions, and

  • verifies environmental parameters, management connectivity, active alarms, core dumps, and core files.

Sample output and references

Note

The sample output in these procedures is not from the latest software release. The output changes for any explicit reference to the current release.

Note

  • For details about proactive system monitoring that you can use to prevent potential issues, see System Health Check.

Inventory support in Cisco NCS 1014

The Cisco NCS 1014 inventory model is the set of hardware components that the system reports when you query its inventory. It consists of:

  • one Cisco NCS 1014 controller card,

  • one Cisco NCS 1014 chassis,

  • two AC or DC power supply units (PSU) of 2 KW and 2.5 KW,

  • three FAN trays, and

  • four line cards.

Card name mapping

The short names used in this guide map to the following Cisco line card product IDs (PIDs):

  • CCMD-16-C: refers to the NCS1K14-CCMD-16-C card.

  • CCMD-16-L: refers to the NCS1K14-CCMD-16-L card.

  • 1.2T: refers to the NCS1K4-1.2T-K9 C-band card.

  • 2.4T: refers to the NCS1K4-2.4T-K9 DWDM transponder and muxponder card.

  • 2.4TA: refers to the NCS1K14-2.4T-A-K9 DWDM transponder and muxponder card.

  • EDFA2: refers to the NCS1K4-EDFA2 C-band card.

  • NCS1K-MD-32O-CE: refers to the NCS 1000 32-channel Odd Mux/Demux 150 GHz C-band Enhanced card.

  • NCS1K-MD-32E-CE: refers to the NCS 1000 32-channel Even Mux/Demux 150 GHz C-band Enhanced card.

Unique device identifier (UDI) reported by show inventory

The show inventory command retrieves and displays inventory information for each Cisco product in the form of a unique device identifier (UDI). The UDI is a combination of three data elements:

  • Product identifier (PID): The name by which the product is ordered. The PID is also known as the product name or part number.

  • Version identifier (VID): The version of the product. The VID is incremented whenever an upgrade changes the product.

  • Serial number (SN): The vendor-assigned unique serial number that identifies a specific product instance.

Verify the hardware inventory on Cisco NCS 1014 device

Use this task to confirm that the physical entities and modules installed in your Cisco NCS 1014 system are correctly identified, so that you can use the inventory data for operational and troubleshooting needs.

The show inventory command displays the inventory details of all the physical entities that are installed on Cisco NCS 1014. You can use specific keywords with the command to filter the inventory information you want to retrieve, such as all, details, fan, power, vendor-type, raw, chassis, and location.

Procedure

  1. Run the show inventory command with the keyword that matches the inventory information that you want to retrieve.

    For sample outputs of each keyword variant, see Sample outputs of the show inventory command.

  2. (Optional) Restrict the output to a specific node by appending the location location keyword to the command.

    Example:

    RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios#show inventory location 0/1/NXR0

Cisco NCS 1014 displays the inventory information that corresponds to the show inventory keyword that you ran.

Sample outputs of the show inventory command

The following sections show representative outputs for each keyword variant of the show inventory command. Use these samples together with the Verify the hardware inventory of Cisco NCS 1014 task.
