Note: An IOM can be hot-inserted into the G-Series switch, but must be removed by following the
procedure described in “Removing an IOM” on page 2-13.
Caution: If you are installing multiple IOMs into a switch that is running, you must wait until the
previously installed IOM is completely initialized before attempting to install the next IOM.
Initialization is complete when the slot’s status LED turns solid green. (A syslog message will also
be sent to the CLI at completion.)
Precaución: Si instala varios IOM en un switch en funcionamiento, debe esperar a que el IOM que
instaló previamente se haya activado por completo antes de pasar al siguiente. Se habrá
completado la activación cuando el LED de estado pase a color verde (asimismo se enviará un
mensaje syslog al CLI cuando se haya completado).
