Removing an MX960 AS MSC
AS MSCs are hot-insertable and hot-removable. When you remove an AS MSC, the router continues to
function.
The AS MSCs are located in the AS MLCs installed in the front of the router. An AS MSC weighs 1.4 lb
(0.6 kg).
To remove an AS MSC (see Figure 167 on page 447):
1. Place an electrostatic bag or antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface to receive the AS MSC.
2. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD grounding strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other
end of the strap to the ESD point on the chassis.
3. Use one of the following methods to take the AS MSC offline:
•
Press its online/offline button. Use a narrow-ended tool that fits inside the opening that leads to the
button. Press and hold the button until the AS MSC LED goes out (about 5 seconds).
•
Issue the following CLI command:
user@host> request chassis pic fpc-slot fpc-slot pic-slot pic-slot offline
For more information about the command, see the CLI Explorer.
