Connecting an EX9200 Switch to a Network for Out-of-Band Management
You can monitor and manage an EX9200 switch by using a dedicated management
channel. Each switch has an Ethernet management port labeled <...> with an RJ-45
connector for out-of-band management. Use the Ethernet management port to connect
the EX9200 switch to the management device.
Ensure that you have an Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 connector available. One such
cable is provided with the switch. Figure 54 on page 191 shows the RJ-45 connector of
the Ethernet cable supplied with the switch.
Figure 54: Ethernet Cable Connector
To connect a switch to a network for out-of-band management:
1. Turn off the power to the management device.
2. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the management port (labeled <...>) on
the Routing Engine module (RE module) installed in the switch.
For the location of the Ethernet management port, see Figure 55 on page 192.
3. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the management device.
