Installing and Maintaining the E1200i System 11
This guide provides site preparation recommendations, step-by-step procedures to rack mount the Force10
Networks E1200i chassis, as well as instructions to install fan trays, power supplies, route processor
modules (RPMs), switch fabric modules (SFMs), and line cards.
This guide also includes instructions for removing and installing field-replaceable parts, including power
supplies for both the AC and DC models. The E1200i system is packaged with components necessary for
optimal performance, including blank panels for RPM, SFM, and line card slots. Blanks are required in
empty slots to ensure adequate system cooling and for EMI containment during operation.
After you complete the hardware installation process and power up the system, refer to the FTOS
Configuration Guide for preliminary software configuration information. E1200i systems run Force10 OS
(FTOS™) software. The FTOS Command Reference for the E-Series provides detailed CLI information,
