What to do if the show platform command shows a Power Module (P0 to P5) in failed state on a Cisco cBR Network Router?
- K
  Kevin LangAug 18, 2025
  If the output of the show platform command shows the Power Module (P0 to P5) in a failed state, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure the Power Module is properly inserted into the chassis. If it is, verify that the Power Module is receiving power by connecting it to the corresponding FPEM. If the issue persists, the Power Module may have entered an abnormal state, in which case it should be replaced.

What to do if I see an SNMP-3-RESPONSE_DELAYED error message on my Cisco cBR?
- A
  Adam WilliamsAug 23, 2025
  If the SNMP-3-RESPONSE_DELAYED error message appears in the show logging output, it indicates that the SNMP process is taking too long to get an OID. To troubleshoot this, first check the CPU usage using the command `show process cpu history`. Then, execute `test snmp cpu-stats start`, wait for the error message to reappear, and check the output of `show snmp cpu-stats` to see if the OID in the error message displays a large value. If it does, contact cBR support. Otherwise, investigate the reason for high CPU usage.
