Filler Plates and Cards for the GranDSLAM Chassis
All circuit cards except the SCM may be replaced without disruption to user data
(i.e., you can remove and reinstall a card without powering down the chassis and
disrupting user data on the other cards). To remove the card from the base
chassis, unfasten the screws on both ends of the faceplate. Then push both
ejector handles outward and slide the card out.
When swapping DSL port cards, it is important to note that in the GranDSLAM, the
Media Access Control (MAC) address (also referred to as the physical address) for
each slot is stored in the System Interface Module (SIM). A replacement DSL port
card will be assigned a MAC address for the slot as stored in the SIM. Replacing
the SIM will result in a new MAC address being assigned to all slots.
