Installing the RSP7000 Upgrade Kit
Removing the RP
Follow these steps to remove the RP:
Caution You must shut down the system before removing the RP, which is a required system
component. Removing a RP while the system is operating will cause the system to shut down or
crash and might damage or destroy memory files.
Step 1 Upload (copy) the currently running configuration file to a TFTP server so you can retrieve
it later. (See the section “Saving and Retrieving the Configuration File” on page 11.)
Step 2 Slip on an antistatic strap and connect the equipment end of the strap to a captive
installation screw on an installed interface processor, or to any unfinished chassis surface.
Step 3 Disconnect any devices that are attached to the console or auxiliary ports on the RP.
Step 4 Locate the RP in your chassis. The SP (or SSP) is installed in slot 5 in the Cisco 7000 (see
Figure 8) or slot 3 in the Cisco 7010 (see Figure 9).
