Chapter 2 Installing Cisco Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers Removing or Replacing Cisco Network Modules for Cisco Access Routers Caution The double-wide and extended double-wide network modules can be heavy. Avoid touching the network module board to support the module. Handle the network module by the faceplate only to avoid damage to board components. Step 5 Install the appropriate item. • (If you are replacing the module) Install a replacement module using the procedures described in the "Installing Cisco Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers" section on page 2-5 • (If you are not replacing the module) Install blank faceplates over the empty slot to ensure proper airflow. (See the "Installing and Removing Blank Faceplates" section on page 2-6.) Tip See the "Where to Go Next" section on page 2-27 for information on locating additional hardware documentation. Replacing Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers with Online Insertion and Removal Support Online insertion and removal (OIR) provides uninterrupted network operation, maintains routing information, and ensures session preservation. The following Cisco access routers support OIR for similar network modules: • Cisco 3660 routers • Cisco 3745 routers • Cisco 3845 routers Caution These Cisco access routers support OIR with similar network modules only. If you remove a network module, install the same model network module in its place. For 1- or 2-slot network modules, you must install the same network module and interface card combination. Caution Do not perform OIR on interface cards in 1- or 2-slot network modules. To avoid damage to the interface card and to the network module, turn off electrical power and disconnect network cables before inserting an interface card into a network module slot. OIR procedures require some interaction with Cisco IOS software. For more information on Cisco IOS software-related tasks, see documents listed in the "Where to Go Next" section on page 2-27. Tip Not all Cisco network modules and Cisco interface cards support OIR. Check the hardware documentation specific to your network module or interface card to confirm OIR support before starting OIR procedures. To replace a network module with OIR support from a Cisco access router, perform the following steps: OL-2485-20 Cisco Network Modules Hardware Installation Guide 2-21

Removing or Replacing Cisco Network Modules for Cisco Access Routers
Caution
The double-wide and extended double-wide network modules can be heavy. Avoid touching the network
module board to support the module. Handle the network module by the faceplate only to avoid damage
to board components.
Step 5
Install the appropriate item.
(If you are replacing the module) Install a replacement module using the procedures described in the
“Installing Cisco Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers” section on page 2-5
(If you are not replacing the module) Install blank faceplates over the empty slot to ensure proper
airflow. (See the
“Installing and Removing Blank Faceplates” section on page 2-6
.)
Tip
See the
“Where to Go Next” section on page 2-27
for information on locating additional hardware
documentation.
Replacing Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers with Online Insertion
and Removal Support
Online insertion and removal (OIR) provides uninterrupted network operation, maintains routing
information, and ensures session preservation. The following Cisco access routers support OIR for
similar network modules:
Cisco 3660 routers
Cisco 3745 routers
Cisco 3845 routers
Caution
These Cisco access routers support OIR with similar network modules only. If you remove a network
module, install the same model network module in its place. For 1- or 2-slot network modules, you must
install the same network module and interface card combination.
Caution
Do not perform OIR on interface cards in 1- or 2-slot network modules. To avoid damage to the interface
card and to the network module, turn off electrical power and disconnect network cables before inserting
an interface card into a network module slot.
OIR procedures require some interaction with Cisco IOS software. For more information on Cisco IOS
software-related tasks, see documents listed in the
“Where to Go Next” section on page 2-27
.
Tip
Not all Cisco network modules and Cisco interface cards support OIR. Check the hardware
documentation specific to your network module or interface card to confirm OIR support before starting
OIR procedures.
To replace a network module with OIR support from a Cisco access router, perform the following steps:
