Removing or Replacing a Module
Use this section to do either of the following:
Replace one module with another
Remove a module without replacing it
1. Remove any network cables from the ports on the module.
2. Loosen the screws in the extractor handles of the module you want
to remove from the switch. (Refer to figure 5 on page 6.)
3. Simultaneously pull both extractor handles toward you until the
module releases from the slot and the Fault and status LEDs for that
slot are off.
N o t e
During removal (or installation) the module and switch connectors will
momentarily be only partially connected. The fault LED for the slot
flashes rapidly to indicate this state, and normal switch operation is
temporarily suspended until the module connector is completely
separated from the switch connector. The other switch modules do
continue to forward packets, though.
4. Slide the module out of the slot.
