• If the wrist strap has an alligator clip on the other end, clip that onto one of the two screws holding the grounding
lug to the chassis.
What to do next
After you ground yourself, you can replace the modules on the chassis.
Installing or Replacing a Supervisor Module
You can install or replace a supervisor module during switch operations so long as there is another supervisor
module installed and operating on the switch. If you eject the active supervisor from its slot in a chassis with
two supervisor modules, operations automatically switch over to the standby supervisor module. If you need
to replace a supervisor in a chassis with just one supervisor, you can install the new supervisor in the open
supervisor slot, make the new supervisor active, and remove the other supervisor module.
