7.2.2 Connecting to FCR FC Ports
Use the following procedure to connect a cable to the Fibre Channel port:
1.
Connect the small form-factor FC 1G/2G 850nm LC transceiver connector to the FC port on
the FCR module.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the appropriate device.
7.3 Chassis Administrative Connections
You make the initial CLI connection to a chassis through a PC connected to a serial port. This
connection enables you to perform basic configuration, such as setting up IP addresses. When
the IP address is configured, you can connect to a chassis over the Ethernet, and use the Web-based
management interface.
7.3.1 Cabling the ISR 9024 Management Connections
The ISR 9024 management ports are located on the front panel. The following ports are provided:
1.
For an internally managed ISR 9024, connect a single Ethernet cable to the connector located
either on the rear panel or on the front panel.
2. For an internally managed ISR 9024, plug the DB-9 adapter into the mini-USB port and
connect the DB-9 adapter to a CLI console via a serial cable (not provided).
3. For an externally managed ISR 9024, connect the I²C cable (not provided) between the DB-9
connector and the management console.
Use the following procedure to connect to the management port Ethernet Interface:
1.
See the Ethernet Cabling Tables to determine where the management port connects to an
in-rack ProCurve switch.
2. Connect the end of the management cable with the RJ-45 connector to the management port.
3. Connect the end of the cable with Ethernet connector to the appropriate ProCurve switch
port.
7.3.2 Cabling the ISR 9096 and the ISR 9288 Management Connections
The ISR 9096 and the ISR 9288 management ports are located on the front panel of the sCTRL
board. The following ports are provided:
•
A DB9 serial interface for local console access. Use this serial port to connect to a PC running
terminal emulation software. You can use this connection to run the management CLI over
a Telnet login.
• A 10/100 Ethernet interface for network access. Connect this port to an IP network. You can
use this connection either to run a CLI (via Telnet) or the GUI (via a Web browser or Java
Web client).
• A diagnostic I²C interface is provided for the use of technical support personnel only.
If you choose not to use the built-in software interfaces, you can use a third party SNMP manager.
If the configuration calls for out-of-band management, you must connect the management
network to the corresponding management ports on the rear of the chassis. You can connect both
types of management network simultaneously. Two Ethernet connectors and two serial ports
are provided. These ports correspond to the sMB boards on the right and left sides of the chassis
front. Connect one or more Ethernet cables to the RJ-45 connectors on the interconnect that
correspond to installed sMB boards. Connect one or more serial cables to the DB-9 connectors
in a similar manner.
Consult the Ethernet Network Cabling Tables for information on connecting the InfiniBand
interconnect to a ProCurve switch located in the Cluster.
Use modular, RJ-45, straight-through UTP cables to connect the 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports to
end systems. Use modular, RJ-45 cross-connect cables to connect to external switches and routers.
