Installing and Removing the Power Supply
Caution
Follow proper safety procedures when performing these steps by reading the safety warnings in
Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco Intrusion Prevention System 4200 Series
Appliance Sensor
.
IPS 4270-20 ships with two hot-pluggable power supplies, thus providing a redundant power supply
configuration. You can install or replace either power supply without powering down the IPS 4270-20,
as long as one power supply is active and functioning correctly.
Caution
If only one power supply is installed, do not remove the power supply unless the IPS 4270-20 has been
powered down. Removing the only operational power supply causes an immediate power loss.
To install and remove power supplies, follow these steps:
Step 1
Log in to the CLI.
Note
Power supplies are hot-pluggable. You can replace a power supply while the IPS 4270-20 is
running, if you are replacing a redundant power supply.
Step 2
Prepare IPS 4270-20 to be powered off (if you only have one active, functioning power supply). Wait for
the power down message before continuing with Step 3.
