3.1.3 Management Port
The 1000Base-T Ethernet MGMT (management) port is used for local management. Connect
directly to this port using an Ethernet cable. You can configure the Switch via Telnet or the web
configurator.
The default IP address of the management port is 192.168.0.1 with a subnet mask of
255.255.255.0.
3.1.4 Console Port
For local management, you can use a computer with terminal emulation software configured to the
following parameters:
• VT100 terminal emulation
• 115200 bps
• No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit
• No flow control
Connect the male 9-pin end of the RS-232 console cable to the console port of the Switch. Connect
the female end to a serial port (COM1, COM2 or other COM port) of your computer.
3.2 Rear Panel
The following figures show the rear panels of the Switch. The rear panels contain:
• A slot for a fan module (A)
• Two slots for power modules with power receptacles (B and C)
Figure 11 Rear Panel
3.2.1 Removing and Installing the Fan Module
See the Fan Module Hardware Installation Guide to see how to install the fan module in the
Switch.
3.2.2 Power Connection
Make sure you are using the correct power source and that no objects obstruct the airflow of the
fans.
The Switch uses two power supply modules, one of which is redundant, so if one power module fails
the system can operate on the remaining module.
