Establishing an Ethernet connection
After using a serial connection to configure the IP addresses for the device, you can connect the active
management module to the local area network (LAN).
Note
Connecting interface modules to a private network or VLAN is recommended.
After establishing an Ethernet connection, you can complete the device configuration using a serial
console connection, Telnet connection, or existing management applications.
Perform the following steps to establish an Ethernet connection to the device.
