Replacing a Media Converter Module
To replace a module:
1. Install the new module in the chassis. For instructions, refer to the
AT-MCF2300 Multi-channel Media Converter Series Installation Guide.
2. Wait one minute for the module to initialize its management software.
3. Start a local or remote management session on the chassis or stack.
For instructions, refer to “Starting a Local Management Session” on
page 18 or “Starting a Remote Telnet or Secure Shell Management
Session” on page 20.
4. Enter this command:
system show cluster
5. Examine in the display the configuration overwrite setting of the media
converter module you just installed.
Figure 7. Determining the Configuration Overwrite Setting of a Media
Converter Module
If the overwrite setting is enabled, the module seeks its
configuration from the management module and the master
configuration file. If the media converter module that previously
occupied the slot was the same model, than the new module is
assigned the very same configuration settings, automatically. If the
slot had not been used before or if the previous module was a
different model, the newly installed module uses its own auxiliary
configuration file in flash memory to set its parameters, or if it has
never been used before, it uses the default values.
