NOTE: You cannot use the management port to perform the initial
configuration of the QFX3100 Director device. You must configure the
management port before you can successfully connect to the QFX3100
Director device using this port. See “Configuring the QFabric System Initial
Setup on a QFX3100 Director Group” on page 287.
Ensure that you have an RJ-45 patch cable available.

1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the management port (labeled MGMT on
the Director device front panel).
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your management device or
management network.
3. (Optional) Repeat these steps for the second Director device.
