These components are located on the control board faceplate:
•
A slot for installation of the Routing Engine.
•
Three status LEDs—MASTER, FAIL, and OK—indicate the status of the control board.
•
Online/offline button, located to the right of the status LEDs.
•
Three RJ-45 management ports for connecting the Routing Engine to external
management devices. The management ports on each control board connect to the
Routing Engine installed into that control board. From these management devices,
you can use the CLI to configure and manage the packet transport switch. Each control
board includes the following ports:
•
HOST/ETHERNET—10/100-Mbps/1-Gbps Ethernet port for connecting to a
management network. Connects the Routing Engine through a copper 10/100/1000
BASE-T Ethernet connection to a management LAN (or any other device that plugs
into an Ethernet connection) for management of the packet transport switch. The
port uses an autosensing RJ-45 connector to support 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1-Gbps
connections. Two small LEDs on the bottom edge of the port indicate the port speed
and traffic on the port. The left LED is labeled Y=10/100 G=1000, and the right LED
is labeled ACT.
•
CONSOLE—One copper 9600 baud port for connecting the Routing Engine to a
system console through a copper cable with RJ-45 connectors.
•
AUXILIARY— One copper 9600 baud port for connecting the Routing Engine to a
laptop, modem, or other auxiliary device through a copper cable with RJ-45
connectors.
NOTE: If a packettransport switchcontainstwo host subsystems, connect
both control boards to your external management network.
•
Four 10-Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ fiber-optic ports— labeled (X)GE0 through
(X)GE3—located to the right of the management ports.
