Step 1 To install a new network module for the first time into an empty slot, do the following:
a) Power down the chassis by moving the power switch to the OFF position.
b) Follow Steps 5 through 7 to install the new network module.
c) Power on the chassis by moving the power switch to the ON position.
The state for the new network module is OIR Failed.
d) To change the status of the network module to Online, reboot the chassis. See the "Rebooting the Firepower 4100/9300
Chassis" topic in the System Administration chapter in the FXOS Configuration Guide for your software version.
Step 2 To remove and replace an existing network module, do one of the following:
a) Save your configuration.
b) Power down the chassis by moving the power switch to the OFF position (if removing a network module that does
not support hot swapping).
c) Bring the network module offline using the appropriate CLI command (if removing a network module that supports
hot swapping). All network module configuration is saved. See the “Taking a Network Module Offline or Online”
topic in the Security Module/Engine Management chapter in the FXOS Configuration Guide for your software version.
d) Continue with Step 3.
Step 3 To remove the network module, loosen the captive screw on the left of the network module, release the handle until it is
fully rotated, and then gently pull the network module out of the chassis.
