Chapter 5 Connecting the Management Interfaces and Performing Initial System Configuration

Connecting the Management Interface

At this point, check that the Link/Active LED is green.

The state of the 10/100/1000 LED will depend on the Ethernet network settings. Green indicates 100 Mbps and ‘Off’ indicates 10 Mbps.

Step 2 Test connectivity. From the host that you intend to use for remote management, ping to the SCE 2000 by typing ping and the SCE 2000 IP address, and pressing Enter (see the example, below).

Note Please note that only step 2 above, is performed from the remote management host (Mng port connection).

This verifies that an active connection exists between the specified station and the management port.

The ping program sends an echo request packet to an IP address and then awaits a reply. Ping output can help you evaluate path-to-host reliability, delays over the path, and whether the host can be reached or is functioning.

This completes the procedures for connecting the management interfaces and for initial configuration of the SCE 2000 platform. Proceed to the next chapter for a description of the procedures for cabling the Fast Ethernet ports f and for configuring Fast Ethernet (FE) interface parameters.

EXAMPLE:

The following example displays a typical ping response where the target IP address is 10.1.1.201.

C:\>ping 10.1.1.201 pinging 10.1.1.201 ...

PING 10.1.1.201: 56 data bytes

64bytes from host (10.1.1.201): icmp_seq=0. time=0. ms

64bytes from host (10.1.1.201): icmp_seq=1. time=0. ms

64bytes from host (10.1.1.201): icmp_seq=2. time=0. ms

64bytes from host (10.1.1.201): icmp_seq=3. time=0. ms

----10.1.1.201 PING Statistics----
