Replace the Management Ethernet Cable

To connect the Routing Engine to a network for out-of-band management, connect an Ethernet cable with RJ-45/RJ-45 connectors to the MGMT port on the craft interface. One such cable is provided with the router. For cable specifications, see Cable Specifications for Routing Engine Management Interfaces. Follow this procedure:

  1. If a cable is already installed in the MGMT port for the relevant Routing Engine, perform the following steps:
    1. Press the tab on the connector and pull the connector straight out of the port. Figure 45 shows the connector.
    2. Disconnect the cable from the network device.
  2. Plug one end of the replacement Ethernet cable into the appropriate MGMT port. Figure 44 shows the external device ports on the craft interface.
  3. Plug the other end of the cable into the network device.
