You can pre-configure a line card slot and interfaces by using <strong>the</strong> linecard command. For an empty slot,<br />

enter <strong>the</strong> linecard command with <strong>the</strong> specific card-type. Once you have entered that in<strong>for</strong>mation, you may<br />

configure <strong>the</strong> interfaces that would normally be found on that line card.<strong>FTOS</strong> will treat a pre-configured<br />

line card as logical until <strong>the</strong> same type of line card is online <strong>for</strong> that particular slot. Figure 251 displays a<br />

portion of <strong>the</strong> show running-config command output <strong>for</strong> a line card and interface that are not installed in<br />

<strong>the</strong> chassis. The first line of <strong>the</strong> screenshot in<strong>for</strong>ms you that <strong>the</strong> card type was configured <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> slot, while<br />

<strong>the</strong> following lines contain <strong>the</strong> line card’s interface configuration.<br />

Figure 251 Example of a Pre-configured Line Card and Interface<br />

If you swap line cards of different types (<strong>for</strong> example, a 24-port 1-Gigabit E<strong>the</strong>rnet line card <strong>for</strong> a 2-port<br />

10-Gigabit E<strong>the</strong>rnet line card), you must change <strong>the</strong> running-config file to reflect <strong>the</strong> new line card type<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation after <strong>the</strong> line card is removed. If you do not change <strong>the</strong> line card configuration, <strong>FTOS</strong> reports a<br />

“card mismatch” as <strong>the</strong> line card status when <strong>the</strong> new card is installed.<br />

To configure a different line card type, use <strong>the</strong> following command in <strong>the</strong> CONFIGURATION mode:<br />

Step Command Syntax Command Mode Usage<br />

1 no linecard number CONFIGURATION Remove <strong>the</strong> old line card configuration. Configure<br />

<strong>the</strong> following parameter:<br />

• number: Enter a number <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> slot number.<br />

After entering this command, remove <strong>the</strong> old line<br />

card and insert <strong>the</strong> new line card.<br />

CONFIGURATION Configure a slot with a new line card type.<br />

Use when inserting a line card type in an empty slot<br />

Configure <strong>the</strong> following parameters:<br />

• number: Enter a number <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> slot number.<br />

card-type: Enter <strong>the</strong> card type.<br />

Once <strong>the</strong> system recognizes a line card type or you configure <strong>the</strong> linecard command, <strong>the</strong> system requires<br />

that line card type to be installed in that slot.<br />

Figure 252 is a show linecard command example and both <strong>the</strong> Required Type and Current Type fields<br />

must match <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> system to correctly access <strong>the</strong> line card.<br />
