Setting Up Management Access ! 77
Chapter 8
Accessing E-series Routers
This chapter discusses how to access the system to manage it. Managing your
router includes both configuring and monitoring it. For basic information on the
management of the system, see JUNOSe System Basics Configuration Guide,
Chapter 4, Managing the System.
Setting Up Management Access
Before you power up the system, you must set up a management console (see
Connecting to a Console Terminal in Chapter 6, Cabling E-series Routers. The console
allows you to communicate with the system during the power-up process, set an IP
address, and manage the system using the command line interface (CLI).
The E-series router can be managed and monitored through a:
! Console terminal: Connect a console (PC, Macintosh, or UNIX workstation)
directly to the system’s RS-232 serial port.
! Remote console: Connect 10/100Base-T port on the SRP I/O module to an
Ethernet network, and run Telnet from a remote console.
For initial access to the system, you need to physically connect your console directly
to the system’s RS-232 port. This connection allows you to use the CLI to set an IP
address on the system. Once you configure the IP address, you can access the
system remotely (for example, via Telnet).
Console Port Setup
A console terminal (PC, Macintosh, or UNIX workstation) can be connected directly
to the SRP I/O module via the RS-232 terminal port. When you connect a console
directly to the system, you can configure the system without an IP address.
