Logging in through the internal Ethernet interface on the OAP
module by using SSH
When installed in the expansion slot of a device, an OAP module can exchange information with the
device through internal interfaces, including a fast Ethernet interface.
To log in to the operating system of an OAP module through the internal Ethernet interface:
1.
Connect the SSH client (for example, a PC) to the Ethernet port of the device by using a
network cable.
2.
Log in to the OAP module through the console port and enable the SSH server function on the
OAP module.
3.
Assign an IP address to the internal Ethernet interface on the OAP module. Make sure the PC
and the fast Ethernet interface on the OAP module can reach each other.
4.
From the SSH client, establish an SSH connection to the IP address of the fast Ethernet
interface.
After the SSH connection is successfully established, you are logged in to the operating system of
the OAP module.

Resetting OAP modules
About resetting OAP modules
You can reset an OAP module to restore it to normal operation in the following situations:
•
The OAP module fails.
•
The OAP module is not operating correctly. For example, the OAP module does not respond to
your operation.
Pressing the reset button of the OAP module has the same effect. The device can still identify and
control the OAP module after the module starts up again.
Restrictions and guidelines
Resetting an OAP module might cause a service outage.
