Installation
This section describes how to install the ATM Module
using the example of an IBM 8271 Nways Ethernet
LAN Switch Model 624 device. Installation is similar
for all devices compatible with this ATM Module.
1
If the Switch is connected to the network, turn off the
power to the switch and disconnect the switch from
the main power supply and the network.
2
Place the Switch on a flat, clean, hard, working surface.
3
Locate and remove the blanking plate which covers
the ATM Module slot. Retain the blanking plate and
the screws for future use.
Refer to the manual which accompanies your Switch
to locate the slot where the ATM Module is located.
4
Use the guide rails within the Switch slot to align the
ATM Module. The location of the guide rails and the
correct positioning of the ATM Module is shown in
Figure 6-1.
5
Slide the ATM Module into the slot without touching
the top or bottom of the circuit board. Ensure that
the module is pushed fully into the unit.
6
Use the thumb screws attached to the ATM Module
to fix the module firmly into place.
7
Connect the Switch to the ATM network as described
in “Connecting a cable to the ATM Port” on page 6-5.
8
Power up the Switch as described in “Powering Up
the Switch” on page 6-5
9 Follow the post-installation checks, as described in
“Post-Installation Checks” on page 6-5.
