The side-latches should be in open position before you install the module. After you install the
module, first secure the side-latches, and then secure the side-screws.
Note
Step 3
Push the module into place until you feel the module seat securely into the connector on the router backplane.
The module faceplate should contact the chassis rear panel.
When installing the E-Series Server into a Cisco ISR 4000 series, if the module does not completely
slide into the router, push the module slightly upwards, and then inward to complete the insertion.
Tip
Step 4
Using a number-1 Phillips or flat-blade screwdriver, tighten the captive mounting screws on the module
faceplate.
What to do next
What to Do Next
1.
Load a compatible Cisco IOS image. See the “Cisco ISR G2, E-Series Server, NCE, and Cisco IOS
Software Release Compatibility” section in the
Release Notes for Cisco UCS E-Series Servers and the
Cisco UCS E-Series Network Compute Engine, Release 3.x.
2.
Connect the E-Series Server or SM E-Series NCE to the network and then power up the router and the
server.
3.
Install blank faceplates to cover any open slots. See the “Installing the Blank Faceplate”.
4.
Verify that the router recognizes the E-Series Server or SM E-Series NCE. See the “Verifying E-Series
Server or SM E-Series NCE Installation”.
Installing the Blank Faceplate
All empty chassis slots on the router must be covered with blank faceplates to ensure proper cooling and
airflow and to prevent electromagnetic interference. Use this procedure to install a blank faceplate on the
router’s SM slot.
