Replace the Management Ethernet Cable
The cable that plugs into the port labeled MANAGEMENT ETHERNET on the craft interface
connects the Routing Engine to a network for out-of-band management (see Figure 88). The
port accepts a cable with RJ-45/RJ-45 connectors, which is provided with the router as
detailed in “Routing Engine Interface Cable and Wire Specifications” on page 53.
To replace the cable connecting to a management network, follow this procedure:
1. If a cable is already installed in the
MANAGEMENT ETHERNET port, perform the following
steps:
a. Press the tab on the connector and pull the connector straight out of the port.
Figure 89 shows the connector.
b. Repeat to disconnect the cable from the network device.
2. Plug one end of the replacement Ethernet cable into the
MANAGEMENT ETHERNET port.
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the network device.
