Description

A hardware reset is equivalent to physically removing and reinserting the front card of a card group and causes the card’s logic to be reset. When you reset the hardware of an active card other than a controller card (an NPC, NPM, or BCC), a standby card takes over if one is available. A failure reset clears the card failures associated with the specified slot. If a slot contains a card set, both the front and back cards are reset.

Do not use the reset command on an active NPC, NPM, or BCC because this causes a temporary interruption of all traffic while the card is re-booting. (Resetting a controller card does not destroy configuration information.) Where a redundant NPC, NPM, or BCC is available, the switchcc command is used to switch the active controller card to standby and the standby controller card to active. If a standby card is available, resetting an active card (except for a NPC, NPM, or BCC) does not cause a system failure. H/F Resetting of an active card that has no standby does disrupt service until the self-test finishes.
