Hot Swapping Line Cards
Alternately, if you have not removed a line card you deactivated with the system
hotswap out command, you can reactivate it with the system hotswap in
command. For example, to reactivate a line card in slot 7, enter the following
command in Enable mode:
Removing the Line Card
To remove a line card from the XP:
1. Make sure the Offline LED on the line card is lit.
Warning: Do not remove the line card unless the Offline LED is lit. Doing so can cause the
XP to crash.
2. Loosen the captive screws on each side of the line card.
3. Carefully remove the line card from its slot in the XP chassis.
Installing a New Line Card
To install a new line card:
1. Slide the line card all the way into the slot, firmly but gently pressing the line card
fully in place to ensure that the pins on the back of the line card are completely seated
in the backplane.
Note: Make sure the circuit card (and not the metal plate) is between the card
guides. Check both the upper and lower tracks.
2. Tighten the captive screws on each side of the line card to secure it to the chassis.
Once the line card is installed, the XP recognizes and activates it. The Online LED
button lights.
Hot Swapping One Type of Line Card With Another
You can hot swap one type of line card with another type. For example, you can replace a
10/100Base-TX line card with a 1000Base-SX line card. The XP can be configured to
accommodate whichever line card is installed in the slot. When one line card is installed,
configuration statements for that line card are used; when you remove the line card from
the slot and replace it with a different type, configuration statements for the new line card
take effect.
