This document describes how to configure and upgrade a replacement Firewall Services Module (FWSM) for
one that has failed. This document also describes how to configure the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch in order to
minimize downtime. This applies to a FWSM as part of a failover pair, and a FWSM that is already physically
swapped (refer to the hardware installation guide for details).

Before you complete the procedures in this document:

Ensure the basic properties of your switch are configured.

Note: This document does not describe the initial configuration of the FWSM and switch. Rather, it
assumes the FWSM and switch successfully worked before a hardware failure.
