Installing the I/O Modules
To install the I/O modules in a redundancy group:
1. Install the redundancy I/O module in the lowest-numbered slot of the
redundancy group.
2. Install the corresponding I/O module for the line module of each slot in the
redundancy group. (See Installing a Line Module or an I/O Module, earlier in this
chapter.)
3. Cable each module to provide a path to the remote interface (see Chapter 6,
Cabling E-series Routers).

CAUTION: When setting up a redundancy group with line modules, be sure to
install the redundancy I/O module in the lowest-numbered slot of the redundancy
group. It is possible to install the redundancy I/O module in other slots; however,
doing so may damage other I/O modules connected to the redundancy midplane.
