Chapter 6 Cabling the Line Ports and Completing the Installation

Connecting the line ports to the network

Configure GigabitEthernet Auto-Negotiation

By default, the SCE 1000 GBE line interface ports are configured with auto-negotiation disabled.

Note Auto-negotiation must be disabled when the SCE 1000 is deployed via an external optical splitter (receive-only topology)

.

Note If you change any parameters, you must save the new configuration settings.

Type copy running-config startup-config, and press Enter

Step 1 To enter the Global Configuration Mode, at the SCE 1000# prompt, type configure, and press Enter.

The SCE 1000(config)# prompt appears.

Step 2 To enter the desired GBE port interface, type interface GigabitEthernet 0/portnumber, and press Enter, where portnumber is the number of the selected port (1 or 2).

The SCE 1000(config if)# prompt appears.

Step 3 Type auto-negotiate and press Enter.

The SCE 1000(config if)# prompt appears.

Step 4 To return to Global Configuration Mode, type exit and press Enter. The SCE 1000(config)# prompt appears.

Repeat this procedure to configure auto-negotiation for the other GBE port interfaces as needed.

Connecting the GBE Line Interface Ports

The following sections present the general procedure for cabling the GBE interface ports. Refer to Cabling Diagrams (on page 6-1) to find the appropriate cabling diagram for the topology of your system for the specific connections required.

Note When installing an External Optical Bypass module, the SCE 1000 line ports are connected to the module. See Cabling the External Optical Bypass Module (on page A-4)for complete instructions.
