Replacing a module

You can hot-swap Passport 8672ATME Modules as long as the module you are
inserting has the same MDAs installed as the module you are replacing. In this
case, the system saves the previous configurations. If you hot-swap the module
with a module that has different MDAs installed, you must reconfigure the
module.
If you are hot-swapping modules, read the following section for information about
how the routing switch recognizes replacement modules and how to avoid
potential problems.
