Management Interface Modules

About Management Interface Modules

Refer to “Management Interface Modules” on page 17 for additional information.

About a Failed Management Interface Module

If you believe a Management Interface module has failed, contact technical support. Management Interface modules are hot-swappable.

Refer to “Management Interface Module LEDs” on page 71 and “Monitor the Cards” on page 79 for monitoring information.

Determining Which Management Interface Module has Failed

The Management Interface modules are located on the back of the chassis. Refer to Figure 1-2for a diagram of the chassis. The slots are labelled on the chassis.

Removing a Management Interface Module

1.Verify that you have a method of covering the slot before removing the module. Do not remove the module unless you have a replacement or a blanking panel for the slot, as overheating may occur.

2.Determine if the Management Interface module that you are removing is currently connected to the master fabric controller.

Note: The removal of the “Master” Management Interface module will trigger a fail-over of the Fabric Controller module. Switch traffic will be disrupted. If the system is left without a Management Interface card, the switch will become inoperative.

If the “Master” LED is lit, then the module is connected to the master fabric controller module, and a fail-over will occur when you remove the management interface module. The system will fail to the redundant management interface module and the redundant fabric controller module.

3.Ground yourself appropriately.

4.Unplug any Ethernet management or serial cables that are connected to the ports of the Management Interface module.

5.Use a #1 phillips screwdriver to unscrew the Management Interface module.

6.Use the handle to pull the module from the bay.
