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 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 ports
for this connection.

"Ethernet NIC Connectors and Cables"
To connect Gigabit Fiber Ethernet devices, use a fiber-optic cable with an
LC connector for each NIC interface. The destination end of the cable can
be either LC or SC, depending on the type of connector required for the
destination Gigabit Ethernet device.
