Connecting the Management Interface

The SCE platform is equipped with two RJ-45 management (MNG) ports. These ports provide access
from a remote management console to the SCE platform via a LAN. The two management ports provide
the possibility for a redundant management interface, thus ensuring management access to the SCE
platform even if there is a failure in one of the management links.
If only one management port is used, the desired port is simply connected directly to the LAN. If both
management ports are used, they must both be connected to the management console via a switch. In this
way, the IP address of the MNG port is always the same, regardless of which physical port is currently
active.
The procedures for cabling the management port and testing connectivity between the SCE 2000 and the
remote management host are explained in the following sections:
