Cabling the Out-of-Band Management Port

You can use the 10BASE-TX port on the Switch 9300
to manage your network out-of-band. Out-of-band
management lets you diagnose network problems
easily because you manage your network from a
workstation on a different network.
To cable the out-of-band 10BASE-TX port:
Plug the male RJ-45 connector on the 10BASE-TX
1
cable into the 10BASE-TX port until it clicks into
place.
Attach the other end of the 10/100BASE-TX cable to
2
the workstation.
