The 10GE SPA interface cards have two LEDs, one for status and the other for link. Both are illuminated, but there is no fiber connected to the cards and I cannot figure out if the whole ASR is bad, or just the cards. Also, the ASR's "boot" LED is constantly blinking, so I'm thinking *something* is messed up with this boat anchor. Any ideas on what to test or look for? I did a "show platform" and all the cards are listed as "ok". I've also done a restart on the cards, restarted the chassis, and nothing is making this thing unglitch.

Out of curiosity, is there any way to session into the ESP-10 that's installed like you would with a line card on a 6500? I didn't see anything indicating you actually move from card to card like that with the ASR series.

Nice. Turns out the SPAs are LR and the Nexus 5020 the ASR trunks to is all SR.
