B-Series Multi-protocol Router blade installation guide 27
Powering the B-Series MP Router blade on and off
The B-Series MP Router blade must be installed to an operational 4/256 SAN Director in order to
be powered on.
To power the B-Series MP Router blade on, set the slider switch at the top of the blade to On (see
Figure 1). Power is supplied to the blade as soon as installed to an operational 4/256 SAN
Director and powered on.
The B-Series MP Router blade runs POST by default each time it is powered on; it typically requires
from 1 to 3 min to boot and complete POST.
To power the B-Series MP Router blade off, set the power slider switch to Off (see Figure 1). If the
B-Series MP Router blade is operational, powering off the blade is disruptive to traffic across the
blade.
