Resetting the Management Card
This procedure is used to reset the management card in the chassis. You
might reset the card if it is experiencing a problem. You can also reset the
card using the CPU Reset button on the card’s front panel.
Review the following information before resetting the management card:
In most situations, resetting the management card should not affect
the network operations of the media converter line cards in the
chassis. However, if you’ve changed but not saved the parameter
settings of a media converter line card in a slot where the auto-copy
feature is enabled, the line card will revert to its previous settings after
the management card resets. This may affect the operations of the line
card.
Any changes you’ve made to the parameter settings of the
management card but not saved in the master configuration file are
discarded when the card is reset. To save the parameter settings,
return to the Main Menu and select Configuration and Save System
Confirmation or Save System and All Line Card Confirmations.
Resetting the management card ends your management session. To
continue managing the chassis, wait approximately one minute for the
management card to initialize its management software and
afterwards start a new management session.
If the chassis has two AT-CV5M02 Management Cards, resetting the
active card activates the standby management card. To resume
managing the chassis, wait 20 seconds for the standby card to
transition to the active state and then start a new management
session. For more information, refer to “Redundant Management
Cards” on page 26.
