Connect Power Cords
Depending on the model, your gateway may have a single power
supply, or redundant power supplies.
a. Connect each power cable to the gateway and to your local
power source.
b. For redundancy, plug in all power cords, preferably to
diff erent power sources.
4
Turn the Power On
Some gateways power up as soon as they're plugged in, others
don't. If the power is off , turn it on. If you don't plug in all the
power cords, an audible alarm sounds until you do.
a. Verify that each power supply's LED illuminates green.
b. On the front panel, verify that the Power LED illuminates
green or blue.

Optionally, connect the management ports
It is not necessary, however, if you want to create local, physical
access to the management ports, you can do so as follows:
HPE Aruba Networking assigns the MGMT1 ethernet interface a
default IP address of 169.254.0.1 and a subnet mask of /16 (the
same as 255.255.0.0).

Both RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces (MGMT0 and MGMT1)
support MDI/MDI-X and auto-negotiation.
a. Identify the gateway's MGMT0 and MGMT1 interfaces.
b. Using an RJ-45 cable, connect the gateway's MGMT0 interface
to the network equipment interface.
c. Using another RJ-45 cable, connect the gateway's MGMT1
interface to your PC.
You've now completed the physical installation and are ready to
register the product with Orchestrator.
Port Confi guration
(EC-S-P, EC-S-P DC, and EC-M-H gateways only)
When linking any of the specifi ed gateways to a 1G SFP port,
confi gure the peer (switch/router) 1G SFP port as Forced 1G/Full
