MDA and MDA-Type Commands for Adapter Cards
Adapter card slots with odd numbers are on the left side of the router (slots MDA 1, 3, and
5); adapter card slots with even numbers are on the right side (slots MDA 2, 4, and 6). See
Figure 5 on page 45, which identifies the slots.
After the IOM is activated, continue in the config context with the following CLI
commands to provision the adapter card(s).
Command Example
Step 1.mda mda-number mda 1
Step 2.mda-type mda-type mda-type a8-eth
Step 3.exit exit
To provision additional adapter cards, continue the configuration process with Step 4:
Step 4.mda mda-number mda 3
Step 5.mda-type mda-type mda-type a16-chds1
Step 6.exit exit
Notes:
•In the config context, adapter cards are identified by their mda-number, where the
mda-number is a number from 1 through 6. For example, an adapter card in slot MDA 4
is identified by mda-number 4.
•In the show context, adapter cards are identified as “1/n”, where “1” is the slot number
and “n” is the mda-number. For example, the command show mda 1/5 displays
information on the adapter card in slot MDA 5. For the 7705 SAR-8, the slot number is
always 1.
• Adapter cards must be configured before their ports can be configured.
