CLI Prompt
After you log in, you see the CLI prompt for the Cisco IOS XR software. This prompt identifies the
router or SDR to which you are issuing commands. The CLI prompt represents the path, through the
router, to the CPU that executes the commands you enter. The syntax for the CLI prompt is:
type/rack/slot/module: router-name#. The CLI prompt is described in

slot
Slot in which the RP or DRP is installed. In a Cisco CRS-1 router, the
RP physical slot number is “RP0” or “RP1.” In a
Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, the physical slot number can be 0 to
15, and there can be multiple SDRs, each of which is represented by
an RP.

module
Entity on a card that executes user commands or communicates with
a port (interface). For executing commands from the EXEC prompt,
the module is the “CPU0” of the RP. “CPU0” also controls the
forwarding and operating system (OS) functions for the system.
DRPs have two processors: CPU0 and CPU1.
