Removing/Replacing TRIM Cards

Introduction This section describes the removal and replacement of TRIM cards.

 

 

 

Caution

 

 

 

6500 cards and their components are sensitive to static discharge, which can damage

 

 

 

components. Use proper handling and grounding precautions, including the use of an

 

 

 

anti-static grounding strap, whenever you handle a card.

Before Removing

 

Before removing the TRIM card from the Modulus enclosure, disconnect the LAN

TRIM Cards

cable and detach the TRIM rear filler panel from the TRIM card backplane.

 

 

 

Failure to do so could damage the LAN cable or the TRIM card. The following

 

 

 

caution label on the processor card is a reminder:

 

 

 

“REMOVE LAN I/O CABLE, REAR FASTENERS AND FRONT FILLERS

 

 

 

BEFORE REMOVING THIS CARD.”

Removing the Follow these steps to remove the TRIM/processor card from the nest:

Card

Step

Action

 

 

1

Detach the LAN cable from the backplane.

 

 

2

Using a flat-head screwdriver, unscrew the captive hardware that

 

attaches the TRIM card rear filler panel to the TRIM card backplane.

 

 

3

Detach the two Modulus front filler panels that cover the TRIM card.

 

 

4

Pull out the TRIM/processor card. When detaching a TRIM card from

 

its processor card, follow the procedures in “Installing and Connecting

 

a TRIM Card” section on page 2-45in reverse order.

 

• If you are removing or replacing a card in a Modulus 8/18

 

enclosure, refer to the Modulus Planning and Installation

 

Guide.

 

• If you are removing or replacing a card in a Modulus 9/21

 

enclosure, refer to the Modulus 9 and 21 Installation and

 

Operation Guide.

 

 

Updating LAN Port The BIA (Burned In Address) is a unique LAN MAC address that is supplied by a

MAC Address PROM chip on the TRIM card. The BIA is used as the LAN port MAC address if the Port MAC Address parameter (in the Port configuration record) is set to a default value of 00-00-00-00-00-00.

If you replace the TRIM card, reboot the node to reset the LAN port address to the new BIA value contained on the replacement TRIM card. If, however, you want to use the BIA address from the removed card, update the node configuration to ensure that the older BIA address is used.
