If you do not install a new SAP module in the slot, install a filler panel. To install a new SAP
module, see "
Installing a SAP/OAP/switching fabric module
Replacing a HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X
CAUTION:
To avoid hardware damage, do not hot swap a HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X interface module on a FIP
when the RUN LED of the FIP module is fast flashing.
IMPORTANT:
After you remove a HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X from a FIP, the HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X settings will not
automatically restore if you reinstall the HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X on the FIP after the FIP reboots. To
save the settings, make sure the HIM/MIM/MIC is in position before rebooting the FIP module or
inserting the FIP module into the router.
IMPORTANT:
A MIC-X-ET16-compatible FIP module supports only one MIC-X-ET16 assembled by a MIC-X
adapter module and a MIC-ET16L interface module.
The replacement procedure is similar for HIMs, MIMs, MICs, and MIC-Xs.
To replace a HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X:
1.
Loosen the captive screws of the HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X to be removed.
2.
Fully open the ejector levers on the HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X. Hold the ejector levers and then
gently pull the HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X out of the slot along the slide rails.
The ejector levers of the FIP module are long. When removing the HIM/MIM/MIC/MIC-X in slot
1 on the FIP module, avoid touching the right ejector lever of the FIP module.
