Guidelines for Removal and Installation

This section describes the correct procedures to avoid unnecessary board failures.

Note The VIP6-80 installation is the same for each router model, except where otherwise noted.

The VIP6-80 is oriented horizontally in the Cisco 7010 and Cisco 7505 routers, and vertically in the Cisco 7000, Cisco 7507, Cisco 7507-MX, Cisco 7513, Cisco 7513-MX, and Cisco 7576 routers.

Follow these guidelines when removing and installing the VIP6-80:

•Install VIP6-80s in the interface processor slots closest to the RSP slots first, and then work out to the interface processor slots furthest from the RSP slots to ensure compliance with EMI approvals.

•Remove or insert only one VIP at a time. Allow the system time to complete the initialization process before removing or inserting another VIP. Disrupting the sequence can cause the system to detect spurious hardware failures.

•Remove any interface processors before removing and installing any PAs.

•Handle processor modules by the carrier handles and carrier edges only; never touch the board or any connector pins. (See Figure 2.)

•Use the ejector levers when removing the VIP6-80 to ensure that the backplane connector pins disconnect from the interface processor in the proper sequence. A VIP6-80 that is only partially connected to the backplane can hang the bus.

•Use the ejector levers when inserting the VIP6-80, as shown in Figure 3. Failure to do so can disrupt the order in which the pins make contact with the VIP6-80, and may cause the system to interpret a board failure.

•Insert an interface processor filler in any unused interface processor slots to keep dust out of the router and to maintain proper airflow through the interface processor compartment.
