Resetting a Malfunctioning Switch Module
1. Select Quit from the main management menu, if you can; otherwise,
proceed to the next step.
2. Press the reset button on the front panel of the switch.
3. Observe as the following activities occur in sequence:
All LEDs, except the Port Link LEDs, turn on for one second.
The power LED remains on.
The Port Link LEDs turn on briefly.
After a successful reset, the Fault LED stays off and the other LEDs turn on
as appropriate, indicating normal network traffic. If the Fault LED stays on,
replace the switch module.
Replacing a Failed Switch Module in the Chassis (Hot Swapping)
The following steps apply only to the switch installed in the chassis.
1. Remove the power cord from the failed switch module.
2. Undo the chassis screws and pull out the failed switch module to
completely remove it from the chassis.
3. Remove the data cables, if any, from the failed switch module and label
their locations for your reference.
4. Remove the dust cover, screws, and rubber feet from the replacement
switch, if in place. Do not reinstall the screws.
5. Slide the new switch module in the vacated bottom slot along the chassis
guides, but do not push the switch all the way in.
6. Plug in the power cord of the replacement switch module, checking the
front panel LEDs to ensure the switch is operational.
7. Re-attach the data cables to the new switch module if necessary.
8. Make sure all hub modules in the chassis are powered up.
9. Push gently to seat the new switch module into the backplane connector.
10. Secure the switch module onto the chassis with the screws you removed in
Step 2.
You are done replacing a switch in the chassis.
