Hardware Survey and Software Configuration Worksheets
The worksheets in this chapter serve as a place to record the hardware installed in your switch and the configuration planning decisions you make as you plan your software configuration. Instructions for filling out the Hardware Survey worksheets appear in the "Verifying the Hardware Configuration" section of Chapter 2, "Configuring General Switch Features."
The information you need to complete the software configuration worksheets appears in "Preparing for Configuration" and in the Cisco MGX 8800/8900 Hardware Installation Guide, Releases 2 - 5.2.
Cisco recommends that you make copies of these tables and fill them out for each card on your switch as applicable. For example, if you have seven CESM cards on your MGX 8850 (PXM1E) switch, you should fill out the MGX 8850 hardware survey worksheet once and the CESM worksheet in Table E-8 seven times.
Once you have filled out the appropriate worksheets for your MGX switch, you can refer back to them to obtain information you need to complete configuration on your switch. You can also refer to these worksheets to troubleshoot and modify the configuration of your MGX switch in the future.
Note
You only need to complete the worksheets that apply to your switch and the cards you installed on your switch.
Hardware Survey Worksheets
The hardware survey worksheets provide space for you to note the types of front and back cards installed in your switch and the redundancy relationships between them. The primary purpose of the survey worksheet is to document which cards are installed in the switch and give you a chance to validate that cards are installed in the correct locations and that back cards are compatible with front cards. The "Verifying the Hardware Configuration" section of Chapter 2, "Configuring General Switch Features," describes how to use the switch software to locate the information needed in the hardware survey worksheets.
Note
The hardware survey worksheets do not contain all the information you need to configure the switch. Use the hardware survey worksheets to identify the hardware and validate the hardware installation. Use the software configuration worksheets in this chapter to plan the configuration for each card. You can validate the hardware first, or complete your configuration plan first. However, the configuration will not work correctly until the hardware installed matches the software configuration plan.
Table E-1, Table E-2, and Table E-3 serve as the hardware survey worksheets for the three types of Cisco MGX switches.
