Connecting Network Interfaces - Nokia 500s Installation Manual

Performing the Initial Configuration
Note
A physical ID identifies the NIC type (nic_type) and provides
information about its slot number (slot_num), subslot number
(subslot_num) and port number (port_num). The physical ID syntax
is:
nic_type-sslot_num/ssubslot_numpport_num
For example, the physical ID for the first port of a dual-port Ethernet
NIC in slot 1, subslot 2 would be:
eth-s1/s2p1
The Ethernet management interface ports are numbered eth-s3p1
through eth-s3p4.
After you complete the initial configuration, you can use Nokia Network
Voyager to configure the remaining network ports.

Connecting Network Interfaces

Connect at least one network interface to the network to use as the Nokia
Network Voyager system-management interface. This interface is configured
during the initial configuration process, which is described in
"Performing the Initial Configuration."
You can also connect the remaining LAN and WAN interface cables at this
point, although you are not required to do so.
Note
Nokia recommends that you use one of the four front-panel Ethernet
management ports for this connection.
