In the FLDTEC course, under Maintenance and RMA Procedures, Cisco outlines a specific sequence
for bringing up an E-Series server module in an ISR router. The sequence ensures proper recognition,
IOS compatibility, and network readiness:
Power up the router and server: Ensures both components are initialized and POST begins.
Verify that the router recognized the server: Use service-module commands or show platform to
confirm server visibility.
Load a compatible Cisco IOS image onto the ISR: The IOS must support the E-Series module to
provide integration and configuration functionality.
Connect the server to the network: Establish network connectivity for services, remote access, or
deployment.
This structured approach is essential for minimizing errors during modular hardware upgrades or
RMAs in the field.
