Switch Models The Cisco ME1200 NID switches have fixed AC and DC power options. Each switch has 4 1GE SFP (Small Form factor Pluggable) ports and two RJ-45 copper Ethernet ports. All the variants support power redundancy using an external AC-DC power adapter.
The console port is used in display-only mode to output debug information. Console operation is not supported. The serial port’s configuration requirements are as follows: Default Baud rate—115,200 bps • Parity—None • Stop bit—One • Data bits—8 • Flow control—none • Cisco ME 1200 Series Carrier Ethernet Access Devices Hardware Installation Guide OL-31962-04...

Management Option 1 In this model, there will be a Cisco UPE and a Cisco Edge device. The NID will be downstream device, on the Cisco UPE. A UPE NID Controller software subsystem on the ME3600 UPE will be used to manage the NID.
Management Option 3 In this model, another Cisco edge router like ASR -9K directly connects to the NID. There is no UPE, and there is unlikely to be a UPE NID Controller subsystem in the ASR 9K. Such customers may use PRIME or a 3rd party NMS.

Scenario 1 - Zero Touch Provisioning Refer to the ZTP section in the Cisco NID Controller Guide. Scenario 2 - Accessing Cisco ME1200 NID Through ME3600 UPE NID Controller Mode All Cisco ME1200 NID will have 192.0.2.1 as factory installed default IP address.
Page 27
192.0.2.1 static Step 1 to Step 4 are performed so that for the first time, we can access Cisco ME1200 NID through the UPE Note NID Controller ME3600 with the default factory IP address Cisco ME1200 NID comes with (192.0.2.1). The above steps 1 to 4 are mandatory and sufficient to establish the initial connectivity between the UPE NID Controller and Cisco ME1200 NID.
