Hot Swap Insertion of a Switch Module
Follow the procedure listed below to insert a new switch module into an available slot while the Switch
is powered on. Only one module should be inserted at a time. Wait for the process to be completed
before inserting or removing another module. Wear an ESD wrist strap to prevent damage to the
module from possible static electric discharge.
1. If the slot is covered with a faceplate, remove and save it for later use.
2. Carefully remove the module from its packaging.
3. Line up the module with the grooved slot guides and insert it into the chassis. It should glide
easily toward the back of the chassis. Push it in until the module ejector levers are in contact
with the chassis. Be careful not to bend the circuit board of the module. Modules for the DES-
7000 should be oriented so the model number of the module is at the top and the LED
indicators are on the bottom.
4. Push the ejector levers toward the center of the module until they touch the front of the module.
This will push the bus connectors into backplane of the chassis.
5. Observe the
Hot Swap & Card Status
LED indicator on the switch module. This will blink
amber for about 13 seconds after being inserted. During this time the CPU is recognizing the
new switch module and the switch module is booting. A steady amber light indicates a system
failure.
6. A steady green Hot Swap & Card Status LED indicator on the switch module indicates the
module is ready and running normally. The master (CPU) module recognizes the new switch
module.
7. Hand-tighten the installation screws at each end of the module. The module is now firmly
seated in the chassis and powered on. This completes the hot swap insertion.
Hot Swap Procedure for Power Supply
DES-7011 RPS modules can be easily hot swapped. Follow the instructions below to replace a
redundant power supply.
