5. Disconnect the cables from the transceivers in extension, port, and core routing blades and set them
aside. For transceivers with integrated cables, remove the transceivers and cables together and set
them aside. Transceivers without integrated cables can be left in the blades or removed.
6. Disconnect all cables from the CP blades.
Reconnecting system to the network and fabric
About this task
Complete the following steps to reconnect the device to the network and fabric.
Procedure
1. Connect the CP blades to the local area network.
a. Insert the appropriate Ethernet cables into each Ethernet port.
b. Connect the other ends to an appropriate Ethernet LAN, if not already connected.
Note: The device can be accessed by remote connection using any of the available management
tools, such as Telnet or Web Tools. Ensure that the device is not modified using other connections
during the rest of this procedure.
2. Reconnect the transceivers and cables to the port blades.
Note: The ports and cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For a list of
these requirements, refer to the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide.
a. Position one of the transceivers so that the key is oriented correctly to the port and insert the
transceiver into the port until it is firmly seated and the latching mechanism clicks.
b. Select the cable that corresponds to the port and position it so that the key (the ridge on one side
of the cable connector) is aligned with the slot in the transceiver. Insert the cable into the
transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks.
c. Repeat step a and step b for the remaining ports.
d. Organize the cables as required.
Note: Do not route cables in front of the air exhaust vents.
Downloading the configuration
About this task
Once the chassis and its various components have been reassembled and powered back on, use the
configDownload command to restore the original configuration. The configDownload command can be
entered through a Telnet or serial session, but the device must have an Ethernet connection to the server
name or IP address of the host for the download process to complete. For more information, refer to the
help configdownload command or the Fabric OS Command Reference.
Complete the following steps to download the configuration.
Procedure
1. Log in to the device as admin.
switch:admin> login
login: admin
password: xxxxxxxx
switch:admin>
Note: If you are using the Virtual Fabric feature, you must run configdownload -vf before running the
configdownload command to restore the logical switch configuration.
2. Enter the chassisDisable command.
