The HP Router 650: How To Update the
Interface Module Configuration After
Removing or Replacing a Module
Interface modules in an HP 650 router can be inserted, removed, or
replaced while the router is operating. However, when one of these
actions results in either no replacement for a removed module or
replacement with a module having a different set of ports, then the
software configuration will not match the current hardware
configuration. This subsection describes how Quick Configuration
operates in these conditions and how to use Quick Configuration to
update the interface module configuration after removing or replacing a
module.
Note Quick Configuration reacts to a change in interface modules only when
the change takes place before you start Quick Configuration. That is, if a
module change occurs while Quick Configuration is in use, the effects of
the change will not appear in Quick Configuration until you exit from
Quick Configuration and then restart it.
Rebooting the router causes the router to re-initialize itself by using the
most recently saved configuration. Thus, after removing or replacing a
interface module, rebooting the router does not update the interface
module configuration unless you have also used Quick Configuration (or
the Configuration Editor) to update and save the router’s configuration.
