For detailed information about specific NICs, see
the Network Interface Cards."
Caution
You should have a working knowledge of networking equipment
before you attempt to service your IP2255 appliance. Limit service of
the appliance to the procedures described in this chapter.
Caution
To help guard against electrostatic discharge damage, make sure
you are properly grounded by using a grounding wrist strap and
following the instructions provided with the wrist strap before you
handle the components or open the appliance. If you do not have a
grounding wrist strap, make sure you are properly grounded before
you touch any electronic component.
Removing, Installing, and Replacing NICs
The Nokia IP2255 appliances have four slots on the front of the appliance that
hold one NIC each.
Because the Nokia IP2255 appliances support hot swapping of NICs, you do
not have to turn off power from the system to remove, install, or replace a
NIC.
Do not remove or install more than one NIC at a time. When you remove a
NIC, wait a few seconds before you replace the NIC. Likewise, when you
install a NIC, wait a few seconds if you need to remove it.
