Chapter 5 Maintaining the Router

Removing and Replacing an RP or Line Card

Removing and Replacing an RP or Line Card

Line cards can occupy any slot, zero (0) through 3 in the RP and line card cage. The Cisco XR 12404 router is configured with the RP in slot 0 (Figure 5-17). Redundant RPs can be placed in any slot, but requires a line card spacer to comply with EMI emission standards.

Note Installing a card in slot 1 when all other slots are filled may require additional effort to properly seat the card. Because of the tight fit you have to either apply extra pressure to properly seat the card, or you can remove the card in slot 2 before installing the card in slot 1. After you install the card in slot 1 you can reinstall the card in slot 2.

Cisco XR 12404 router line cards support OIR, so they can be removed and installed while the router remains powered on. RPs also support OIR, but are hot-swappable only when the system is equipped with two RPs.

Additional line card information can be found in the respective installation and configuration documentation for each type of line card.
