Installing an IOM

The following procedure describes how to install a hot‐swappable IOM into your G3G switch. You can install an IOM into any open slot. Enterasys Networks recommends inserting any IOMs before you connect power to the switch as described in “Connecting Power to the Switch” on page 2‐13.

Note: An IOM can be hot-inserted into the G-Series switch, but must be removed by following the procedure described in “Removing an IOM” on page 2-13.

Caution: If you are installing multiple IOMs into a switch that is running, you must wait until the previously installed IOM is completely initialized before attempting to install the next IOM. Initialization is complete when the slot’s status LED turns solid green. (A syslog message will also be sent to the CLI at completion.)

Precaución: Si instala varios IOM en un switch en funcionamiento, debe esperar a que el IOM que instaló previamente se haya activado por completo antes de pasar al siguiente. Se habrá completado la activación cuando el LED de estado pase a color verde (asimismo se enviará un mensaje syslog al CLI cuando se haya completado).

To install an IOM, refer to Figure 2‐4 on page 2‐12 and proceed as follows:

1.Confirm adequate power is available to power the new IOM. For more information about G3 power supplies, see “Power Supply Installation Considerations” on page 2‐5. For more information about IOM power consumption, see “IOM Specifications” on page A‐3.

2.Attach an ESD wrist strap to your wrist.
