Step 4 Use the terminal software's command to open the connection to the fabric interconnect.
A session window will start and you will see one of the following prompts:
loader>
or
switch(boot)#
or
FI-A(local-mgmt)#
You now have terminal access. Depending on the prompt, you may have all Cisco UCS Manager CLI commands
or a very abbreviated set of configuration commands.
Connecting the Management Port
To prevent an IP address conflict, do not connect the management port to the network until the initial
configuration is complete. For configuration instructions, see the Configuration Guide for the version of Cisco
UCS Manager that you are using. The configuration guides are available at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps10281/products_installation_and_configuration_guides_list.html.
Caution
The Ethernet management connector port has an RJ-45 interface that will connect to an external hub, switch,
or router.
Procedure
Step 1 Connect the appropriate modular cable to the Ethernet management connector port:
• Use modular, RJ-45, straight-through UTP cables to connect the port to an Ethernet switch or hub.
• Use a cross-over cable to connect to a router interface.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the cable to the device.
