Removing the backup PCG does not affect the functioning of the router. Taking the master
PCG offline causes the FPCs and SFMs to power down and restart, with the other PCG
selected as master. The forwarding and routing functions are interrupted during this
process.
To replace a PCG, see “Return the Failed Component” on page 116 or the procedure to
return a field-replaceable unit in the M40e or M160 router hardware guide.
