NOTE: In this procedure, we assume that the system is already connected to a
power source. See “Ca bl ing ERX Routers” on page 53.

1. Verify that the
power source is operational and turned on.
2. Inspect all grounding and power connections to the router chassis.
3. Confirm that all connections are secure.
4. Switch the powe
rswitchestoON.
5. Monitor the LEDs on the front of the SRP modules to verify that the system
is booting pro
perly. See Table 12 in “Troubleshooting ” on pag e 103 for LED

When the promp

Initializat
ion Sequence
Each line mod
ule is initialized independently. As a result, the CLI o n the SRP
module can become available before the line modules have com p leted initialization.
Commands relating to a line module might fail if the module has not completed
initializa
tion. You can use the show version command to display line module
status. Do not enter commands for a line module until its state is listed as online.
