Clear text passwords cannot include the dollar sign ($) special character.
Note
If a password is trivial (such as a short, easy-to-decipher password), the software will reject your password
configuration. Be sure to configure a strong password as explained in this step. Passwords are case sensitive.
Tip
If you enter a strong password, the software asks you to confirm the password.
Step 3
Enter the same password again.
If you enter the same password, the software accepts the password and begins asking a series of configuration questions.
Step 4
Until you are asked for an IP address, you can enter the default configuration for each question.
Repeat this step for each question until you are asked for the Mgmt0 IPv4 address.
Step 5
Enter the IP address for the management interface.
The software asks for the Mgmt0 IPv4 netmask.
Step 6
Enter a network mask for the management interface.
The software asks if you need to edit the configuration.
Step 7
Enter
no
to not edit the configuration.
The software asks if you need to save the configuration.
Step 8
Enter
yes
to save the configuration.
What to do next

Connecting Interface Ports to the Network
You can connect optical interface ports on I/O modules with other devices for network connectivity.
Connecting a Fiber-Optic Cable to a Transceiver
To prevent damage to the fiber-optic cables, do not place more tension on them than the rated limit and do
not bend them to a radius less than 1 inch (2.54 cm) if there is no tension in the cable or 2 inches (5.08 cm)
if there is tension in the cable.
To prevent possible damage to the cable or transceiver, install the transceiver in the port before installing the
cable in the transceiver.
