Installing ARE Memory Upgrade Modules Removing the Virtual Buffer Memory Module If you are upgrading an ARE processor module from 16 MB to 32 MB or 64 MB, you must first remove the existing VBM module before you can install the new one. If you are upgrading from 8 MB to 32 MB, there is no VBM module to remove. In this case, go to the next section, “Installing the Virtual Buffer Memory Module.” To remove the existing VBM module, you must first remove the ARE processor module from the router.
Installing an ARE Memory Upgrade Kit 4. Grasp the VBM module by the edges and lift it to remove it from the ARE processor module. Store the VBM module in an antistatic bag. 5. Follow the steps in the next section to install the new VBM module. Installing the Virtual Buffer Memory Module If you have not already done so, remove the ARE processor module from the router. Refer to Installing and Maintaining BN Routers for instructions on replacing a FRE/FRE-2 module. To install the VBM module: 1.

Installing an ARE Memory Upgrade Kit Installing the Memory Upgrade SIMMs The upgrade kit contains two identical SIMMs. To install the SIMMs: 1. Using Figure 4 as a reference, locate SIMM sockets U7 and U14 on the ARE processor module. Sockets U7 and U14 should be empty. 2. Grasp one of the SIMMs by the edges and turn it so that the key at the center of the SIMM faces the center of socket U7 (Figure 5). Key A320008A Figure 5. 3.
Installing ARE Memory Upgrade Modules 4. Gently push down on the module so that the retainers grasp the SIMM, locking it into place (Figure 6). When the SIMM is properly inserted, the two small vertical black poles on the SIMM socket line up with the two holes in the SIMM. Retainer Black poles on socket must line up with holes in SIMM A320009A Figure 6. Locking a SIMM in Place 5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 to install the other SIMM in socket U14. 6.
