Note For the satellite image upgrade to work, you must ensure that the management-plane CLI is not 
configured on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router. If it is configured, then you need to add this exception 
for each of the 10GigE interfaces, which are the satellite ICLs.
You can include the exception using this CLI:
control-plane
 management-plane
  inband
    !
   !
   interface TenGigE0/0/0/5  <=== To enable TFTP on nV satellite ICL
allow TFTP
If you do not include this exception, then the image download and upgrade fails.
Monitoring the Satellite Software
• To perform a basic status check, use the show nv satellite status brief command.
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:shanghai# show nv satellite status brief
Sat-ID  Type      IP Address    MAC address     State
------  --------  ------------  --------------  --------------------------------
100     asr9000v  101.102.103.105  dc7b.9426.1594  Connected (Stable)              
200     asr9000v  101.102.103.106  0000.0000.0000  Halted; Conflict: no links configured
400               194.168.9.9   0000.0000.0000  Halted; Conflict: satellite has no type 
configured
• To check if an upgrade is required on satellite, run the show nv satellite status satellite satellite_id.
