IXS2000 Engine Port Numbering
Avid strongly recommends you keep your engines and IP addresses in order in conjunction with
the order of the ports used on the IXSs. When the IP address of the engines are in order with how
they are mounted in the rack, support personnel can better identify the connections and
components in the network. For an overview of the recommended IP addressing, see
Addressing Overview” on page 80

Three- to Twelve-Engine Connections With v2.

Switches
The following procedure describes cabling up to twelve engines and might not represent your
actual rack configuration. The cabling is the same when using IXSs regardless of the number of
engines in your configuration.
To connect the VLAN 10 subnet (left side):
1. Loosen the thumb screws on all the right side switches (IXS and ISS) and pull the right side
switches out about an inch of all the engines (so they are not electrically connected in the
engine).
2. Connect the power cords from at least two of the engine’s power supplies to V ac circuit at
the same time. Then connect the third power supply.
It should take about 2 minutes for the engines to reach ready status. Wait for all the LEDS on
the engine to be green.
3. Power on all the engines in the stack.
n
Power cords are plugged into the engines early in the process to speed up the installation time.
Engines can take a minute or two to become ready. If the engines are ready when it is time to add
them to the stack, the installation takes less time. Do not plug the interconnect cables into the
engines until instructed to do so.
