Hot Swapping

Line Cards and

Control Modules

Hot Swapping Overview

This chapter describes the hot swapping functionality of the SSR. Hot swapping is the

ability to replace a line card or Control Module while the SSR is operating. Hot swapping

allows you to remove or install line cards without switching off or rebooting the SSR.

Swapped-in line cards are recognized by the SSR and begin functioning immediately after

they are installed.

On the SSR 8000 and SSR 8600, you can hot swap line cards and secondary control

modules. On the SSR 8600, you can also hot swap the secondary switching fabric module.

This chapter provides instructions for the following tasks:

• Hot swapping line cards

• Hot swapping secondary Control Modules

• Hot swapping the secondary Switching Fabric Module (SSR 8600 only)
