Final steps
Complete these steps in the order in which they are listed:
• Perform the step Attaching a management station on page 171.
• Perform the step Activating the power source on page 172.
• Perform the step Verifying proper operation on page 172.
Attaching a management station
You can manage your router in the following ways:
• Connect a PC or terminal to the console port on the management module. From this port, you can assign an IP address to the
management module and establish connections through Telnet or SSH.
• Connect the router to your existing management network and manage the router and other network devices from a
management station.
NOTE
The management network that you connect to through the 10/100 Ethernet port must be separate and isolated from the
network over which user packets are switched and routed. For information about functionality on the management port, refer to
Understanding management port functions on page 196.
Attaching a PC or terminal to the console port or Ethernet port
You can attach a PC or terminal to either the console port (which has a male DB-9 serial connector), or the 10/100/1000 or 1000Base
TX Ethernet port (which has an RJ-45 UTP connector) on the management module. From the console port, you can access the router
CLI directly from the PC or terminal or through a Telnet connection. From the Ethernet port, you can access the router CLI or Web
management interface directly from the PC or terminal or through a Telnet connection.
Before performing this task, have the following items available.
• PC running a terminal emulation application or a terminal.
• For console port connections, a straight-through EIA or TIA DB-9 serial cable with one end terminated in a female DB-9
connector and the other end terminated in a male or female DB-9 or DB-25 connector, depending on the specifications of
your PC or terminal. You can order this cable from Brocade or build your own cable. If you build your own cable, refer to the
pinout information in
Console port pin assignments on page 275.
• For Ethernet port connections, a Category 5 UTP crossover cable, which you must supply. For information about the
management port pin assignments, refer to
Management port pin assignments on page 276.
Follow these steps to attach a PC or terminal to the console port or Ethernet port.
