Switch fabric modules (half-height modules for the Switch 8108fl;
full-height modules for the Switch 8116fl) are installed in the central slots
labeled FM. Install the primary module in slot FM-A; install the hot
standby module into slot FM-B. (When you install a single switch fabric
module, you can use either slot FM-A or FM-B.)
Management modules (thicker, half-height modules) are installed in slots
labeled MM.
• If you are installing only one management module, you can install it
in either slot MM-A or MM-B.
• If you are installing two management modules, the primary
management module is the one installed in slot MM-A. The redundant
management module is the module installed in slot MM-B.
Interface modules (narrow half-height modules) are installed in
numbered slots (1-8 on the Switch 8108fl; 1-16 on the Switch 8116fl).
