To assign a card type
Purpose
Perform this procedure to assign a card type to an empty card slot or SFM slot.
The available configurations vary depending on the device; not all NEs support all configurations.
Steps
1 |
On the equipment tree, right-click on the device where you want to assign a card type and choose Properties. The Network Element (Edit) form opens. |
2 |
On the Network Element (Edit) form navigation tree, expand the Shelf object. |
3 |
Right-click on an empty Card Slot object or SFM Slot object and choose Configure Card. The Card Slot (Create) or SFM Slot (Create) form opens. |

Configure the required parameters. Note: The correct chassis mode must be configured for the assigned card types. The chassis mode determines the behavior of the card and establishes the scaling limits and available features. See To configure the device chassis mode and To enable mixed mode for more information. |

Configure the required parameters in the Virtual Scheduler panel. |

Save your changes and close the form. The card and slot appear in the navigation tree and in the equipment inventory list. End of steps |
