Attaching a management station
You can manage the FastIron X Series system in the following ways:
•
Connect a PC or terminal to the serial (Console) port or 10/100/1000 Ethernet port on the management module and access
the system directly or through a Telnet connection to the PC or terminal. See the task below.
•
Connect the FastIron X Series switch to your existing management network and manage the switch, along with other network
devices, from a management station. To do this, you can connect a switch to a Gigabit Ethernet port on the management
module. Refer to
Attaching a switch to an Ethernet port
NOTE
The management network into which you can connect a Gigabit Ethernet port must be separate and isolated from the network
over which user packets are switched and routed.
