Connecting the Management Interface

The SCE platform is equipped with two RJ-45 management (MNG) ports. These ports provide access from a remote management console to the SCE platform via a LAN. The two management ports provide the possibility for a redundant management interface, thus ensuring management access to the SCE platform even if there is a failure in one of the management links.

If only one management port is used, the desired port is simply connected directly to the LAN. If both management ports are used, they must both be connected to the management console via a switch. In this way, the IP address of the MNG port is always the same, regardless of which physical port is currently active.

The procedures for cabling the management port and testing connectivity between the SCE 2000 and the remote management host are explained in the following sections:

•Cabling the Management Port (on page 5-26)

•Verifying Management Interface Connectivity (on page 5-26)
