Cisco WAN Manager User’s Guide, Release 15

Step 4 If your network contains MGX and SES products, refer to this manual for planning information:

Cisco PNNI Network Planning Guide for MGX and SES Products

Step 5 Refer to these manuals for information about installing cards and cables in the MGX chassis:

Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1E/PXM45), Cisco MGX 8950, Cisco MGX 8830, and Cisco MGX 8880 Hardware Installation Guide, Releases 2 Through 5 for installing cards and cables in these chassis.

Cisco MGX 8xxx Edge Concentrator Installation and Configuration Guide for installing cards and cables in the Cisco MGX 8230, Cisco MGX 8250, or Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1) chassis.

Step 6 Refer to the manuals that help you configure your MGX switch and processor cards:

Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1E/PXM45), Cisco MGX 8950, Cisco MGX 8830, and Cisco MGX 8880 Configuration Guide, Release 5 for these chassis.
