NOTE To ensure that the switch will work with the previously established network configuration, the relative position of the network modules must not change when you transfer them to the new fabric. For example, an OC-3c network module that is removed from slot A of the old switch fabric must be installed in slot A of the new switch fabric. Therefore, it is recommended that you label all network connections and network modules before removing them
