Replacing Optional Ports
Before you replace a port option card in slot A or slot B on the
E4G-400 router, have the following items on hand:
- ESD-preventive wrist strap
- 1/2-inch flat-blade screwdriver
You can replace a port option card without powering down the
router. However, you will need to reboot the router to initialize the newly
installed card.
-
Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist
and connect the metal end to an appropriate ground point on the
rack.
-
Completely loosen the captive retaining screws and
slide the installed option card out of the router, as shown in the following
figures.
