Connecting the Management Ethernet Port and HA Port Cables
The management Ethernet port and HA port are 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T RJ-45
auto-sensing interfaces. They are used to upgrade software and manage the device through a network
management server, without using any service interface of the device. The management Ethernet port
and HA port are only for managing the device and have no service processing capabilities such as data
forwarding.
With support for automatic MDI/MDIX, the management Ethernet port and HA port use either a
straight-through cable or a crossover cable for connection to a configuration terminal.
Follow these steps to connect the management Ethernet port or the HA port to the configuration
terminal (take the management Ethernet port for example):
Step1
Turn off the power switches on all power modules of the firewall. Connect the RJ-45 connector of the
console cable to the Console port on the firewall, and the DB-9 female connector to the serial interface
on the configuration terminal.
Step2
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the management Ethernet port on the firewall and the other
end to the Ethernet interface on the configuration terminal.
