You have completed the Cisco ASR 1001-X Router SPA replacement procedure.
Removing and Replacing a NIM on the Cisco ASR 1001-X Router
The OIR feature allows you to install and replace a NIM while the router is operating. You do not have to
shut down the system
’
s power although you should not run traffic through the NIM while it is being removed.
OIR is a method that is seamless to end users on the network, and maintains all routing information and
preserves sessions.
As you disengage the NIM from the router, OIR shuts down all the active interfaces in the NIM.
Note
We recommend that you have the following tools and parts readily available for installing a NIM:
