Cisco ASR 5500 Installation Guide

You do not have to shut down or reboot the ASR 5500 to update the chassis license or install the additional
UDPCs. However, if you install the additional UDPC/UDPC2s and they boot under the old chassis license,
they will not come into service.
Step 1
Contact your CIsco account representative and purchase a license update key that supports the number of new
UDPC/UDPC2s that will be supported.
Step 2
Download the update license key where it can be accessed by CLI commands from the ASR 5500.
Step 3
Refer to the Managing License Keys section in the ASR 5500 System Administration Guide. Follow the instructions for
Installing New License Keys.
Step 4
Install the additional UDPC/UDPC2s in the chassis. Each card should successfully boot. Refer to the Card Installation
chapter in this guide.
Step 5
Run the Exec mode show card table command and verify that the additional UDPC/UDPC2s are installed and recognized
by StarOS.
Step 6
In the Global Configuration mode, run the card slot_number mode active command to make a UDPC/UDPC2 active
in the system.
