Router Removal and Replacement

Before you can remove and replace the router, you must turn off the power to the router and disconnect its power cable. The router will lose all the Fibre Channel and iSCSI connections.

Removal

To remove and replace a router, perform the following steps, as applicable:

1.Make sure all traffic (I/O operations to the router) subsides at the iSCSI initiator systems.

2.Save the configuration data of the router using the CLI FRU command (see the iSR6142 Router CLI User's Guide).

3.Power down the router.

4.Disconnect the power cable.

5.Label all the cables so you can connect them to the same ports on the replacement router.

6.Remove all the Fibre Channel and Ethernet cables.

7.Remove the router from the enclosure where it is mounted.

Replacement

Before replacing a router, you must first remove the previously installed router (as described above).

To install a replacement router:

1.Mount the router in the enclosure.

2.Reconnect the Fibre Channel and Ethernet cables to the ports where they were previously connected.

3.Connect the power cable to the router.

4.Using a management station, configure the management port IP address (see page 4-2).

5.Using a management workstation, restore the saved configuration or reconfigure the router as desired (see the iSR6142 Router CLI User's Guide).

The replacement router should now be operational.
