Before you begin
If you are adding a new Supervisor Card or upgrading the existing Supervisor Cards, ensure that the power
modules installed in the chassis are adequate to support the Supervisor Cards.
Warning
• Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect the other end to the grounding lug
connected to the chassis.
• Install the Supervisor PIC (recommended).
• Be aware of the weight and size of the equipment. Handle it with care.
Restrictions
• If you are using a single Supervisor, you must install the Supervisor Card in the slot corresponding to
the Supervisor PIC.
In the Cisco cBR-8 router,
• Slot 4/1 for the Supervisor PIC corresponds to slot SUP0 for the Supervisor
Card.
• Slot 5/1 for the Supervisor PIC corresponds to slot SUP1 for the Supervisor
Card.
Note
