NOTE

When inserting the module into the router, be sure that the faceplate does not overlap the
faceplate of an adjacent module.

5. Rotate the ejectors until they are flush with the module faceplate. This action will fully seat the

module in the backplane.

6. Tighten the screws at each end of the module faceplate by pushing them in and turning them

clockwise. Complete the tightening process using the flat-blade screwdriver.

7. Enter the write memory command to ensure that the slot will be correctly configured for the

new module after a reboot.

Brocade(config)# write memory

Write startup-config done.
