Does Cisco 3845 with NM-16A/S support OIR feature or Hot swap for this NM.

Dear Sir

My customer would like to implement Cisco 3845 with NM-16A/S x 4. I found that Cisco 3845 support OIR function but I am not sure OIR function that Cisco 3845 support, it support with which NM models. Can anyone tell me that NM-16A/S on Cisco 3845 support OIR function on this NM or not.

Thank you very much

Hi,

From what I have read from the following document.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps5855/products_installation_guide_chapter09186a00802ccf1d.html

Network Modules

Network modules install directly into slots in the rear of the router. The Cisco 3845 router supports online insertion and removal (OIR, or hot swap) of network modules. The Cisco 3825 router does not support OIR.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Caution The Cisco 3845 router supports OIR with similar modules only. If you remove a network module, along with any installed WAN or voice interface cards, install another module and card combination exactly like it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Interface Cards

Cisco 3800 series routers do not support OIR (hot swap) of interface cards inserted directly into router slots. You must turn off the router before installing or removing an interface card.

The Cisco 3825 router and the Cisco 3845 router each provide four interface card slots, labeled on the rear panel by HWIC and a number. Each slot can be occupied by one single-wide WIC, VIC, VWIC, or HWIC.

Hope this helps
