Replacing the Management Ethernet Cable
Toconnect the Routing Engine to a network for out-of-band management, connect
an Ethernet cable with RJ-45/RJ-45 connectorsto the ETHERNET port on the CIP. One
such cable is providedwith the router. For cable specifications, see RoutingEngine
Interface Cable and Wire Specifications on page 74. Follow this procedure:
1. If a cable is already installed in the ETHERNET port for the relevant Routing
Engine, perform the following steps:
a. Press the tab on the connector and pull the connector straight out of the
port. Figure 67 shows the connector.
b. Disconnect the cable from the network device.
2. Plug one end of the replacement Ethernet cableinto the appropriate ETHERNET
port. Figure 66 shows the external deviceports on the CIP. The ports labeled
HOST 0 connect to the Routing Engine in the upper RoutingEngine slot (RE
0), and the ports labeled HOST 1 connect to the Routing Engine in thelower
Routing Engine slot (RE 1).
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the network device.

Replacing the Console or Auxiliary Cable
To usea system console to configure and manage the Routing Engine, connect
it to the appropriate CONSOLE portontheCIP.Tousealaptop,modem,orother
auxiliary device, connect it to the appropriate AUXILIARY port on the CIP. Both
ports accept an RS-232 (EIA-232) serial cable with D B-9/DB-9 connectors. One
such cable is provided with the router. If you want to connect a device to both
ports, you must supply another cable. For cable specifications, see Routing
Engine Interface Cable and Wire Specifications o n page 74.
Toconnect a management console or auxiliary device, follow thisprocedure:
1. If a cable is already installedin the CONSOLE or AUXILIARY port, perform the
following steps:
a. Turnoff the power to the console or auxiliary device.
