If you are removing all cables connected to the PIM, issue the following CLI
command to take the PIM offline:
user@host> request chassis pic fpc-slot pim-slot pic-slot 0 offline
For example, to take the PIM in slot 4 offline, enter the following command:
user@host> request chassis pic fpc-slot 4 pic-slot 0 offline
For more information about the command, see the JUNOS System Basics
and Services Command Reference.
Unplug the cable from the cable connector port.
Detach the cable from the destination port.
Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the PIM. For cable
specifications, see "Network Cable Specifications and Connector Pinouts"
on page 201.
Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the PIM faceplate.
Arrange the cable as necessary to prevent it from dislodging or developing
stress points:
Secure the cable so that it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs
to the floor.
Place excess cable out of the way in a neatly coiled loop.
Use fasteners to maintain the shape of cable loops.
Insert the other end of the cable into the destination port.
