Figure 64: Removing an Uplink Module from an EX4200 Switch
Installing an Uplink Module in an EX4200 Switch
If your EX4200 switch includes an optional uplink module, you install it in the switch's front panel. The
different types of uplink modules are described in
EX4200 Switches" on page
The uplink module in EX4200 switches is a hot-removable and hot-insertable unit (FRU): You can remove
and replace it without powering off the switch.
NOTE:
The packet forwarding process (pfem) restarts and causes traffic loss, if you:
Install an uplink module (SFP, SFP+, SFP+ MACsec, or XFP)
Replace an existing uplink module with another uplink module
Change the operating mode of an SFP+ or SFP+ MACsec uplink module (10-gigabit to 1-gigabit
or 1-gigabit to 10-gigabit) installed in the switch
NOTE:
If you have set an uplink module port as a Virtual Chassis port (VCP), removing the uplink
module breaks the setting. You must reset the port as a VCP after you replace the module. See
Setting an Uplink Port on an EX Series or QFX Series Switch as a Virtual Chassis Port.
