Management Ports
To manage the LDx00, connect at least one of the following ports as described below.
Serial/RS-232 Port (For outband management)
With a null-modem (uncrossed) RS-232 cable having a female DB-9 connector, connect an ASCII
terminal/emulator
serial port to the Management Module’s DB-9 male connector (marked RS-
232 , as shown in Figure 8 ) in one of the following ways:
•
Directly – as shown in Figure 78 .
•
Via Modem – As described in Appendix F: Modem Setup and Installation.
Figure 78: ASCII Terminal/Emulator Connection to LDx00 Directly
Ethernet Port (For inband management)
Connect the Management Module to an Ethernet LAN in the TELNET/SNMP/Web-based
management station’s broadcast domain – see
Figure 79 – in either of the following ways:
With a fiberoptic cable having two male SC connectors, connect the Management Module’s SC
connectors (unmarked – see
Figure 8 ) to the LAN.
With a Category 5 shielded cable having an RJ45 male connector, connect the Management
Module’s RJ45 connector (marked
ETH – see Figure 8 ) to the LAN.
Note
The Category 5 shielded cable must be straight-wired if it is to be
connected to a DTE (e.g., PC) and cross-wired if it is to be connected to a
DCE (e.g., hub). The wiring of a straight and cross cable are shown in
Figure 89 and Figure 90 , respectively.
