Ethernet management port

The Ethernet management port on the 8692SF module is an Medium
Dependent Interface (MDI) 10/100BASE-T port that allows out-of-band
management of the switch using a Web browser or Device Manager. You
can also establish a TELNET or SSH (Secure Shell) session to access the
CLI. Use this port to connect the switch to a network management station.
The Ethernet management port has its own IP address but does not switch
traffic to other ports in the chassis.
This port can be used only as a management port. This port provides
out-of-band management for the 8692SF module.

DCE/DTE switch

The DCE/DTE switch changes the pin assignments on the Console port
and allows you to designate the connector as either DTE or DCE. For
information about pin assignments for the Console port, see

Serial ports

The 8692SF module provides two serial ports for attaching modem and
console devices. The Console port provides terminal access to the 8692SF
module to use the CLI. The Modem port allows you to connect a standard
modem for out-of-band, dial-up management. For information about pin
assignments for these ports, see

Reset button

The recessed Reset button on the module allows you to perform a hard
reset or reboot of the system. To press the Reset button, insert a small
object (for example, a paper clip) into the Reset button hole.
