Management Ethernet Port Cable Connection
To comply with Class A emissions requirements, a shielded Ethernet cable must be used for the connection.
Caution
To use the Management Ethernet interface on the router, perform the following steps:
SUMMARY STEPS
1.
Insert an Ethernet RJ-45 cable into the MGMT ETHERNET port (see
“
Common Connectors for Cisco
ASR 1001 Route Processor
”
figure in the
Cisco ASR 1001 Router Faceplate Common Components
section).
2.
Insert the other end of the RJ-45 cable to your management device or network.
DETAILED STEPS
Step 1
Insert an Ethernet RJ-45 cable into the MGMT ETHERNET port (see
“
Common Connectors for Cisco ASR 1001 Route
Processor
”
figure in the
Cisco ASR 1001 Router Faceplate Common Components
section).
Step 2
Insert the other end of the RJ-45 cable to your management device or network.
Connecting a Terminal to the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 Console Port
The Cisco ASR 1001 embedded route processor has an asynchronous serial (EIA/TIA-232) RJ-45 console
port labeled CON on its front panel. You can connect this port to most types of video terminals through use
of the console cable kit that is included with your Cisco ASR 1001 Router. The console cable kit contains:
•
One RJ-45 to RJ-45 crossover cable
•
One RJ-45 to DB-25 (female) adapter
•
One RJ-45 to DB-9 (female) adapter
A crossover cable reverses pin connections from one end to the other. In other words, it connects pin 1 (at
one end) to pin 8 (at the other end), pin 2 to pin 7, pin 3 to pin 6, and so on. You can identify a crossover cable
by comparing the two modular ends of the cable. Hold the cable ends in your hand, side-by-side, with the
tabs at the back. Ensure that the wire connected to the outside (left) pin of the left plug (pin 1) is the same
color as the wire connected to the outside (right) pin of the right plug (pin 8).
Use the following procedure to connect a video terminal to the console port on a route processor.
Each Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route Processor must have a console port connection (typically to a terminal
server) if you are running a redundant configuration in the chassis.
