A module is a field-replaceable hardware component installed within a device which houses its own child components. The most common example is a chassis-based router or switch.
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to devices, modules are instantiated from module types, and any components associated with the module type are automatically instantiated on the new model. Each module must be installed within a module bay on a device, and each module bay may have only one module installed in it. A module may optionally be assigned a serial number and asset tag.
|
||||
Similar to devices, modules are instantiated from [module types](./moduletype.md), and any components associated with the module type are automatically instantiated on the new model. Each module must be installed within a [module bay](./modulebay.md) on a [device](./device.md), and each module bay may have only one module installed in it.
|

|
||||
## Fields
|
||||
|
||||
### Device
|
||||
|
||||
The parent [device](./device.md) into which the module is installed.
|
||||
|
||||
### Module Bay
|
||||
|
||||
The [module bay](./modulebay.md) into which the module is installed.
|
||||
|
||||
### Module Type
|
||||
|
||||
The [module type](./moduletype.md) which represents the physical make & model of hardware. By default, module components will be instantiated automatically from the module type when creating a new module.
|
||||
|
||||
### Serial Number
|
||||
|
||||
The unique physical serial number assigned to this module by its manufacturer.
|
||||
|
||||
### Asset Tag
|
||||
|
||||
A unique, locally-administered label used to identify hardware resources.
|
||||
|
||||
### Replicate Components
|
||||
|
||||
Controls whether templates module type components are automatically added when creating a new module.
|
||||
|
||||
### Adopt Components
|
||||
|
||||
Controls whether pre-existing components assigned to the device with the same names as components that would be created automatically will be assigned to the new module.
