Installing the Ruckus ICX 7750
Connecting to the management port
2.
Launch the terminal emulation program and set the following session parameters:
•
Baud: 9600 bps
•
Data bits: 8
•
Parity: None
•
Stop bits: 1
•
Flow control: None
The console serial communication port serves as a connection point for management by a PC.
Connecting to the management port
The Gigabit Ethernet management port (RJ-45) on the Ruckus ICX 7750 rear panel provides an out-of-band network connection to the
device. After you assign an IP address, you can access the Ruckus ICX 7750 from anywhere in the attached network using Telnet, a web
browser, or other network management tools, such as Ruckus Network Advisor. To prevent unauthorized access, Ruckus recommends
that the management port only be connected to a secure private network.
To manage the Ruckus ICX 7750 through its management port, connect the port to the management Ethernet network using Category 5
or better cable.
Management of the Ruckus ICX 7750 is described in detail in the Ruckus FastIron Management Configuration Guide.
Installing an SFP+ or a QSFP+ transceiver
To monitor the transceivers, the
show media
command output shows the transceiver information for all interfaces on the switch. Ruckus
provides support for third-party transceivers, but may require a Ruckus transceiver be used for troubleshooting.
Support will not be provided if there is an issue with a third-party transceiver.
NOTE
Passive SFP+ and QSFP+ removable media devices are not supported. Use of passive devices may lead to unstable networks if
utilized. Ruckus-branded removable media devices are recommended for proper operation of the switch.
You can install a new transceiver in a slot while the device is powered on and running.
Before installing or removing a fiber-optic transceiver, have the following items available:
•
The protective covering that you removed from the fiber-optic transceiver port when you initially installed the module.
•
An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to the ESD connector on the router chassis.
CAUTION
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megohm resistor.
DANGER
Laser radiation. Do not view directly with optical instruments. Class 1M laser products.
