Note: When replacing a RackSwitch chassis, all internal components must also be
removed from the chassis and replaced in the new chassis. For more
information on removing and replacing the RackSwitch and components, see
Chapter 3, “Removing and replacing the RackSwitch and components,” on
page 31.
Before installing the RackSwitch
Locate and record the important product information about the switch in the
following table. The identification labels contain the machine-type model (MTM)
number, serial number and part number (front, rear panel and/or bottom of the unit),
and the media access control (MAC) address (rear of unit) for the switch. The MAC
address is not required for opening a service call.
You can also review and record your product serial number and other required
information through the software interface by issuing the show
sys-info
command
using the ISCLI interface or the
/info/sys/general
command using the MenuCLI
interface. For more information about these commands, see “Configuring Vital
Product Data after a switch replacement” on page 40.
After the switch is installed most of the identification labels are hidden from view
and require removing the switch in order to relocate them.
Attention: This product information is required to register your product, to update
your firmware, place a service call, and replace the RackSwitch.
Note: The following sample RackSwitch identification (ID) labels may have different
MTM and part numbers than your unit.
