Online Insertion and Removal

Online insertion and removal (OIR) provides uninterrupted network operation, maintains routing
information, and ensures session preservation on the Cisco 3900 series ISR G2 and Cisco ISR 4451-X.
You can use online insertion and removal to install or replace hardware without affecting system
operations.
The Cisco 2900 series ISR G2 does not support OIR of the E-Series Servers.
Note
To avoid damaging the router, turn off the electrical power on the router and disconnect network cables
before inserting or removing the E-Series Server from the Cisco 2900 ISR G2.
The OIR commands for the Cisco 3900 series ISR G2 and Cisco ISR 4451-X are different. See the
