between the management computer and the NE via an Ethernet network. For
this connection to work, the NE must have correct IP addresses and the neces-

Windows or Linux operating system
o
Connected to and configured to operate on the Ethernet network
•
If necessary for the two devices to reach each other, network routes must
be established by the network administrator.

Ensure that your management PC is connected to its local IP network.
Step 2
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 Ethernet port
marked C, C1 or C2 on the NCU module in the NE.
