Observe the following guidelines when installing slot cards into the MXK 319
chassis:
•
The two uplink cards are the only cards that can be installed in the two
bottom right slots, slots
a
and
b
.
•
Line cards can be installed in any of the remaining slots (slots 1 to 5 in the
left hand column and slots 6 and 7 in the upper two slots of the right hand
column) and can exist in the same chassis.

Add, change or delete card profiles
The
card
command permits adding, changing, updating, and deleting card
profiles. Optional parameters that are available are software load filename,
card group ID, linetype, and status. By default, new card profiles are enabled
and use the system assigned software load file.
The
card change
command can be used to change a card profile settings, for
example using a different card type. By default, the system validates that there
is a match between the software load file and the card type. An optional
parameter is available to override validation to use a software load file that
does not match the card type.
The
card update
command can be used to modify card-profile settings after
the initial card configuration.
Refer to the
Zhone CLI Reference Guide
for a detailed command description
Reset cards
The
resethold
and
resetrelease
commands are available to place a card on
hold in the system configuration, while the card is still in the MXK chassis.
These commands may be used for diagnostic requirements when a card
configuration should be placed on ‘hold’ while the physical card remains in
the chassis.
Refer to the
Zhone CLI Reference Guide
for a detailed command description.
