Installing the Router

The installation of an A6616 configured with an RPE-X1 is similar to that configured with an
RSE-X1. In this chapter, the router configured with an RPE-X1 is used in the examples.
Preparations

Preparing Tools

Phillips screwdrivers: P1-100mm, P2-150mm, P3-250mm

Flat-blade screwdrivers: P4-75mm

ESD-preventive wrist straps, ESD-preventive gloves

Antistatic bags, antistatic pads

Except an ESD-preventive wrist strap, none of the above installation tools is shipped with the

Precautions
1) You have read through Chapter 3 "Preparing for Installation" and all the requirements
mentioned in Chapter 3 are satisfied.
2) Maintain the router hardware under the guidance of the local dealer or technical support
engineers appointed by HP.
3) To avoid injuries, ensure that all power sources to the router are disconnected before
maintaining any hardware modules of the router.
4) Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap or ESD-preventive gloves when maintaining the
router hardware. For more information, refer to "Electrostatic Discharge Prevention" in Chapter
3 "Preparing for Installation."
5) When operating a demountable module, such as an RPE-X1, a chassis accessory, a FIP, a
memory module, a CF card, a HIM, and a MIM, note that:
Ensure good alignment with the slot and use proper force to avoid damage to the module

during installation or removal.
Avoid touching any components on the PCB during observation or moving.

Put the removed module on an antistatic workbench with the PCB side facing upward or place

them in antistatic bags.
6) Run the corresponding commands before hot-swapping the following boards:
Use the remove slot slot-number command before hot-swapping a FIP. If you have run this

command but do not want to remove the FIP, use the undo remove slot slot-number command
to cancel the operation.
Use the remove slot slot-number subslot subslot-number command before hot-swapping a

HIM/MIM. If you have run this command but do not want to remove the HIM/MIM, use the undo
remove slot slot-number subslot subslot-number command to cancel the operation.
The configurations (if any) made on a HIM/MIM before you remove the FIP will not be

automatically restored upon reinsertion after you restart the FIP. To keep the configurations,
make sure that the HIM/MIM is in position before you restart or reinsert the FIP.
