Cabletron Systems 3H08-04 Manuale Utente

Once you have received your ATX, you may want to add a new module to 
expand your network bandwidth, replace a module with a module of a 
different type, or swap a module with another module of the same type. If 
you are:

•

Adding a switch module to a previously vacant slot or to a slot that had 
a different type of module, see Adding a Switch Module, below, for 
instructions.

•

Replacing a switch module with another switch module of the same 
type, see Swapping a Switch Module, below. 

Before adding or swapping modules, see the latest version of the ATX 
Release Notes (provided with your ATX software) for information about 
software and hardware version numbers and compatibility.

Unpack the switch module carefully, handling it by the edges only, and 
inspect it for damage. If any damage is evident, contact Cabletron 
Systems Technical Support immediately. Save the original container and 
antistatic wrap in case the module needs to be repaired.

If the switch module you are adding is different from the type of module 
that was in the slot earlier, or if the slot was vacant, you have to reboot the 
ATX so it will recognize the new module.

If the module you are adding has a different number of ports than the 
module you are removing, before you can power cycle the ATX you 
must:

•

Delete all static addresses

•

Delete all ARP addresses and IP routing table entries

•

Delete all filters
