Connecting an MX150 to a Management Console
MX150 has a console port with an RJ-45 connector. Use the console port to connect the
device to a management console or to a console server.
Ensure that you have an RJ-45 to DB-9 rollover cable available. An RJ-45 cable with an
RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter is provided with the device.
NOTE: If your laptop or PC does not have a DB-9 male connector pin and you
want to connect your laptop or PC directly to the MX150, use a combination
of the RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter supplied with the device and
a USB to DB-9 maleadapter. You must provide the USBtoDB-9 male adapter.
To connect the MX150 to a management console (see Figure 19 on page 91 and
Figure 20 on page 91):
1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the console port (labeled CON).
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into the console server (see
Figure 19 on page 91) or management console (see Figure 20 on page 91).
