Starting Up the Cisco ONS 15530

The CPU switch module provides a slot on the front panel that accommodates a CompactFlash card. You can use the CompactFlash card for system image upgrades, FPGA image upgrades, statistics gathering, and other file system applications.

The Cisco ONS 15530 supports redundant operation with dual CPU switch modules. The CPU switch modules reside in slots 5 and 6, the sixth and seventh slots from the left as you face the chassis. For more information about redundancy, see the “About CPU Switch Module Redundancy” section on page 3-12 .

For more information on the CPU switch module, refer to the Cisco ONS 15530 ESP Hardware Installation Guide.

Using the Console Ports, NME Ports, and Auxiliary Ports

You can configure the Cisco ONS 15530 from a direct console connection to the console port or remotely through its NME (network management Ethernet) port.

•If you are using a direct console connection, configure your terminal emulation program for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.

•If you are using the NME port interface, you must assign an IP address to the interface (fastethernet 0).

For interface configuration instructions, see the “Configuring IP Access on the NME Interface” section on page 3-4.

For further details on configuring ports and lines for management access, refer to the
