Plug and Play
The ACX7100-32C router ships with factory-default settings that enable plug-and-play operation. These settings load as
soon as you power on the router.
Customize the Basic Configuration
You can easily customize the factory-default configuration with just a few commands. Initially, you'll need to make changes
through the console port. After you configure the management port, you can access the ACX7100-32C using SSH and
make additional configuration changes. You can always revert to the factory-default configuration whenever you want.
Have the following information ready before you begin customizing the router:
Hostname
Root authentication password
Management port IP address
Default gateway IP address
IP address and prefix length of remote prefixes
(Optional) SNMP read community, location, and contact information
1. Verify that the following default serial port settings are configured on your laptop or desktop PC:
Baud Rate—9600
Flow Control—None
Data—8
Parity—None
Stop Bits—1
DCD State—Disregard
2. Connect the console port on the ACX7100-32C to a laptop or desktop PC using the RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9
adapter. The console (CON) port is the lower RJ-45 port on the right side of the port panel.
NOTE:
If your laptop or desktop PC doesn't have a serial port, use a serial-to-USB adapter (not provided).
3. At the Junos OS login prompt, type root to log in.
You don't need to enter a password. If the software boots before you connect your laptop or desktop PC to the console
port, you might need to press the Enter key for the prompt to appear.
