Remove and Install FIC Be aware of the following important considerations before proceeding with the
installation of a FIC.
CAUTION: The shielding fingers on the front panel of FIC achieve special
electromagnetic shielding effect for the whole Router. Please ensure their integrity
when uninstalling or replacing an FIC and never damage them.
If you do not want to install a new FIC after removing the old one, install a blank
filter panel to keep off the dust and ensure the adequate ventilation of the Router.
3Com 6000 Series Routers support on-line removal. Thus, you can remove or
install FICs when the router is running without shutting down the power supply
and removing the power cable. But, you must execute the remove slot
command before removing FICs, otherwise, some unknown errors might
occur. However, you do not need to execute the undo remove slot
command when you reinstall the removed FICs.
If you unintentionally execute the remove slot command, you can cancel that
operation by using the undo remove slot command.
