Managing cables For information on managing cables attached to PowerConnect B-RX Series, refer to the chapter in your hardware installation guide on using the structured cabling components. Attaching a management station You can manage the PowerConnect B-RX Series system in the following ways: • You can connect a PC or terminal to the management module's serial (Console) port for a direct connection. From this interface, you can configure the 10BaseT/100BaseTX/1000BaseTX Ethernet (management) port with an IP address and either Telnet or SSH. This enables you to manage the device through the 10BaseT/100BaseTX/1000BaseTX Ethernet (management) port using either Telnet or SSH. • You can connect the PowerConnect B-RX Series switch to your existing management network and manage the switch, along with other network devices, from a management station. To do this, you must connect the management module's 10BaseT/100BaseTX/1000BaseTX Ethernet (management) port to an Ethernet network. NOTE The existing management network into which you can connect the 10/100 Ethernet port must be separate and isolated from the network over which user packets are switched and routed. For information about connecting a PC or terminal to the management module's Console port or management port, refer to "Attaching a PC or terminal to the Console port or Ethernet port" following. For information about connecting a management port to a network, refer to "Attaching the management module's Ethernet Port to a network" on page 25. 24 PowerConnect B-RX Series Getting Started Guide 53-1001682-03
