INTRODUCTION
This procedure provides step-by-step instructions to install the data cable to the RJ-45 port
on the MX2820 backplane for a 10/100Base-T Ethernet connection.
The MX2820 system can provide Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) management
capability, Telnet, and SSH access over an Ethernet connection. The System Controller Unit
(SCU) has a built-in Ethernet interface. The MX2820 shelf connects to the Ethernet ring via
the RJ-45 10/100Base-T port.
DSX-1, DS3, STS-1, and 10/Base-T Ethernet circuits from the
MX2820 are not to be connected directly to outside plant facilities.
PREREQUISITE PROCEDURES
