When a modular line card (MLC) is moved to a new slot, the system recognizes the new interfaces but
Note
leaves them in the shutdown state until you configure them and change their state to up. When a new
modular line card (MLC) is inserted into a slot where a modular line card (MLC) previously resided,
provided you reinstall the modular port adapters (MPAs) and interfaces and their cables in the same
configuration as in the previous modular line card (MLC), the interfaces will come up in the same state
as though you reinserted the old modular line card (MLC).
The following sample display shows the events logged by the system as you insert a new modular line
card (MLC) in module slot 4.

Use the following procedure to verify that the modular line card (MLC) is installed correctly:
Observe the console display messages and verify that the system discovers the modular line card (MLC),
