8. Close the ejectors by rotating them away from the center of the line card. The levering action of
the ejectors seats the line card in the slot.
9. Tighten the captive screws using the Phillips screwdriver.
10. Check to see if the line card has powered on. If not, power on the line card using the power-on
linecard slot_number command.
Verify that the power LED on the line card is displaying a steady green light. If it does not turn
on, ensure that the line card is firmly seated.
The status LED on the line card will show amber until POST completes for the line card. It
should then turn off. If it remains amber, the line card may not be properly seated in the
backplane or the line card may be faulty.
11. If you have replaced a line card with a line card of a different type, follow these steps:
a. Save the configuration persistently by issuing the copy running-config startup-config
command after the interface module reaches the online state.
b. Verify the configuration by issuing the show running-config linecard linecard command.
12. Reinstall the transceivers and cables in the line card or install new transceivers and cables if
you have installed a different type of line card.
13. Group and route the cables through the cable management device.
