Using the Passport 8672ATM Module

After the image loads onto the Passport 8672ATM Module, it performs a series of
self-diagnostic tests. If the module fails the diagnostics, the screen displays the
following message:

Fatal bring up error on ATM card in slot .

If you see this message, contact a service representative. For information on
contacting service representatives, refer to

“How to get help” on page 22

.

When the image successfully loads onto the Passport 8672ATM Module, the
screen displays the following message:

ATM card in slot is online.

The Passport 8690SF module can download the image to two Passport 8672ATM
Modules in the same Passport 8600 series chassis simultaneously.

If you have one MDA installed, you can proceed to configure the Passport
8672ATM Module.

MDA insertion and configuration

Once you insert an MDA, you must complete some basic configuration tasks for
the Passport 8672ATM Module to begin switching operations as soon as it
completes initialization. For information on installing MDAs, refer to Installing
the Passport 8672ATM Module MDAs.

Note: If you accidentally delete the image file, reset the card and
redownload the file. For information on how to reset the card, see

“Resetting the module” on page 54

.

Note: You must save your configuration (using either the CLI or Device
Manager) to preserve the configuration changes you made to the
Passport 8672ATM Module across reboots.
