Configure the newly connected Spans by importing the configuration
from the Span icons you renamed in Step 9.

Edit Span(s)
.

Edit Span(s)
dialog box, click

the renamed Span from which you want to import configuration,
and then click

Name
box on the
General
tab, type the name for the Span.

Click

. The configuration is downloaded to the Span and the
Span automatically restarts offline. (Spans always restart in the
same state unless you type the command for them to change state.
For example, if the Span is offline and you simply restart it, it
restarts offline. However, if you type the command to place it
inline, it goes inline when you restart it.)

Repeat for each Span.
11.
Move the Card to the correct Appliance and the Span(s) to the correct
switch and Span Group(s). If the Card you replaced was the SMDR
Provider, reselect it in the
Edit Switch
dialog box after you move the
Span(s) to the correct switch.
IMPORTANT
Moving the Span into the Span Group automatically
installs the active Policies for that Span Group.

Verify correct operation by comparing all settings to the old Card and
Span icons. In particular, you may need to authorize Telnet clients and
change the security posture and DES Key.

Place each Span inline. To place a Span inline:
a.
In the Performance Manager tree pane, right-click the Span, and
then click
ASCII Management
. (You can select multiple Spans
and open a multi-select ASCII Management Interface to place
multiple Spans inline simultaneously. To do so, hold down CTRL
or SHIFT while selecting the Spans, and then right-click the
selection).
b.
In the
Enter Command
box, type:
SPAN INLINE

press ENTER.
c.
In the
Enter Command
box, type RESTART.
The Spans appear in
the tree pane in ASCII
order. If you want the
Spans to appear in
Span order, you must
name them
appropriately.
