1st thing make sure you have daughter card installed .

2nd thing 5.0.3 supports only ospfv2 so if you dont have plan to run ipv6 you should be good.

Thanks Ajay, how could i check through cli whether there is daughter card installed in device.

If i use sh invertory what output would it show to verify deaughter card installed.

Yes, show inventory or show module will verify that for you.
