Chassis Awareness is on by default. To turn it on, do a "enable nmc chassis_awareness" command on the ARC. I've had this problem before with cards not keeping their settings. My guess is that the NMC has saved the DSP (or ARC) config and when you change something, the NMC is changing it back. In TCM, click on the NMC card to select it, go to Actions/Commands, and execute these commands on the NMC: Restore Chassis From Default Restore NMC From Default Save Chassis to NVRAM software reset Not sure if all of those are necessary or not, but it always works for me. Doing those commands will NOT lose the IP address or any of the config done on the NMC from the console port. Once you do that, and the NMC restarts, you should be able to change and save settings on the other cards and they should stay. - joel -----Original Message----- From: Wayne Hahn [mailto:wayne@hamilton.net] Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2004 10:22 PM To: usr-tc@mailman.xmission.com Subject: [USR-TC] HiperDSP not saving settings Hello all, I have a chassis that the HiperDSPs won't save the settings. If I make a change to the trunks or modems and save the config to NVRAM and reboot the card by doing a hardware reset or pulling the card all the settings go back to the default settings. Also how do I set the nmc chassis awarness to on ? Sorry for the simple questions.
