Installing a Network Service Module

There are two methods for installing and removing NSMs: the Standard
Installation Method and the Hot Swap Installation Method. The software
release running on your switch or router determines which of these two
methods should be used.

If your switch or router is running Software Version 2.2.3 or earlier, follow the
standard method. If your switch or router is running Software Version 2.3.1 or
later, you can use the hot swap method.

To find out which software release your switch or router is running, use the
command:

show release

Standard Installation Method (for Software Version 2.2.3 or earlier):

Follow these steps to install or remove an NSM if the software release does not
support hot swapping.

1.

Read the safety information

See the Safety and Statutory Information booklet for your switch or router. A
copy of this booklet can be found on the CD-ROM that came with your
switch or router, or at www.alliedtelesis.com/support/.

2.

If connected, disconnect the switch or router from its redundant power supply

3.

Disconnect the switch or router from the main power supply

If using the Standard Installation Method, be sure to disconnect the main
power supply and the redundant power supply before installing an NSM.
Installing an NSM with this method when the switch or router is powered ON
can damage the NSM.
