6. Insert the power cord plug into an AC power source outlet.
7. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the on (|) position.
8. Verify that the status LEDs on each power supply are lit green.
If the status LED is lit amber, remove power from the power supply, and replace the power supply (see Maintain the
PTX10001-36MR Power Supplies). Do not remove the power supply until you have a replacement power supply ready.
Perform the Initial Software Configuration
You'll need to perform the initial configuration of the PTX10001-36MR through the console port using the CLI or through
zero-touch provisioning (ZTP). To provision the PTX10001-36MR using ZTP, you'll need access to a Dynamic Host Control
Protocol (DHCP) server and a File Transfer Protocol (anonymous FTP), Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), or Trivial File
Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server on which the software image and configuration files are stored.
Before you begin connecting and configuring a PTX10001-36MR, set the following parameter values on the management
console or console server:
Baud Rate—9600
Flow Control—None
Data—8
Parity—None
Stop Bits—1
DCD State—Disregard
To connect and configure the PTX10001-36MR using the CLI:
1. Connect the console port to a laptop or PC by using the supplied RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter. The console
port (labeled CON/ToD) is located on the management panel of the PTX10001-36MR (see Connect the PTX10001-36MR
to a Management Console) .
2. Log in as root. There is no password. If the software boots before you connected to the console port, you might need
to press the Enter key for the prompt to appear.
login: root
3. Start the CLI.
root@% cli
4. Enter configuration mode.
root> configure
