2 Performing the Initial Configuration Note A physical ID identifies the NIC type (nic_type) and provides information about its slot number (slot_num), subslot number (subslot_num) and port number (port_num). The physical ID syntax is: nic_type-sslot_num/ssubslot_numpport_num For example, the physical ID for the first port of a dual-port Ethernet NIC in slot 1, subslot 2 would be: eth-s1/s2p1 The Ethernet management interface ports are numbered eth-s3p1 through eth-s3p4. After you complete the initial configuration, you can use Nokia Network Voyager to configure the remaining network ports. Connecting Network Interfaces Connect at least one network interface to the network to use as the Nokia Network Voyager system-management interface. This interface is configured during the initial configuration process, which is described in Chapter 2, "Performing the Initial Configuration." You can also connect the remaining LAN and WAN interface cables at this point, although you are not required to do so. Note Nokia recommends that you use one of the four front-panel Ethernet management ports for this connection. 46 Nokia IP1200 Series Security Platform Installation Guide

Performing the Initial Configuration

Nokia IP1200 Series Security Platform Installation Guide
Note
A physical ID identifies the NIC type (
nic_type
) and provides
information about its slot number (
slot_num
), subslot number
(
subslot_num
) and port number (
port_num
). The physical ID syntax
is:
nic_type-s
slot_num/
s
subslot_num
p
port_num
For example, the physical ID for the first port of a dual-port Ethernet
NIC in slot 1, subslot 2 would be:
eth-s1/s2p1
The Ethernet management interface ports are numbered eth-s3p1
through eth-s3p4.
After you complete the initial configuration, you can use Nokia Network
Voyager to configure the remaining network ports.
Connecting Network Interfaces
Connect at least one network interface to the network to use as the Nokia
Network Voyager system-management interface. This interface is configured
during the initial configuration process, which is described in
Chapter 2,
“Performing the Initial Configuration.”
You can also connect the remaining LAN and WAN interface cables at this
point, although you are not required to do so.
Note
Nokia recommends that you use one of the four front-panel Ethernet
management ports for this connection.
