Overview of DFE-Platinum Module Shutdown Procedure

The DFE‐Platinum module must shut down in an orderly fashion to ensure that the other modules
in the system and other devices on the network are notified of the impending change. The devices
can then make intelligent decisions and stabilize the network before the change is made; thereby
increasing network availability.
You can shut down a DFE‐Platinum module in an operating system using the
shown in Figure
