3. At each subsequent prompt, type the requested configuration information and then press
Enter.
For more information about how to respond to the prompts during the initial configuration
process, see the Nokia IPSO-VN User's Guide.
4. To select an interface, enter the number adjacent to the physical ID in the list of connected
interfaces.
Note
A physical ID identifies the NIC type (nic_type) and provides information about its slot
number (slot_num) and port number (port_num). The physical ID syntax is:
nic_type-sslot_numpport_num
For example, the physical ID for the first port of a two-port Ethernet NIC in slot 1 would
be:
eth-s1p1
The Ethernet interface ports are numbered.
After you complete the initial configuration, you can use Nokia Network Voyager or CLI to
configure the remaining network interfaces.

Connecting Network Interfaces

Connect at least one network interface to the network to use as the Nokia Network Voyager
system-management interface.
You can also connect the remaining 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.
To connect Ethernet devices, use a straight-through RJ-45 cable to connect to a 10-Mbps or
100-Mbps or 1000-Mbps hub.
For details, see
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.
