Cisco C8300-2N2S-6T

[Robert Plunkett]

Good evening, I installed a C-NIM-4X card into a Cisco C8300-2N2S-6T router, when I looked at the status is said "booting" and I can't access it.

Can someone help with getting this card becoming active please?

  - Attach a console to the router and scrutinize the complete boot process ?

Thank you Marce 1000, I tried another module out of the box, and even on a different router, and they both produced the same result.
