Removing a VIP6-80
This section describes the procedure for removing a VIP6-80.
If your router has an RSP2 as the standby with the high system availability (HSA) feature or high

availability (HA) features enabled, online insertion and removal of any interface processor in either
CyBus might cause the standby RSP2 to reboot with a bus error or a processor memory parity error. The
active RSP recovers from this event and issues a "cBus Complex Restart" message. Systems that are
configured with an RSP4/4+, an RSP8, or an RSP16 as the system standby are not affected and do not
experience this problem. For more information on HSA or HA, refer to your RSP installation and
configuration guide.
If your router has an RSP2 as the standby with the HSA feature or HA features enabled, perform the
following steps before proceeding with the VIP6-80 removal:
Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap between you and an unpainted chassis surface.
Step 1
Remove the standby RSP2.
Step 2
Wait 20 to 30 seconds. This time will vary depending on the number of interfaces installed on your

If you removed a VIP6-80 or interface processor and the interface processor slot is to remain empty,
install an interface processor filler (Product Number MAS7K-BLANK=) to keep dust out of the
router, maintain proper airflow inside the router, and ensure compliance with EMI approvals by
providing a tight EMI-preventive seal. Do not leave the interface processor slot open.
