Note
Please note that only step 4, 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.
This way you can see that the ping is received and can check that the Active LED is
flashing green.
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.
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 ...

Connecting the line ports to the network
This section provides instructions for configuring Gigabit Ethernet interface parameters, and
connecting subscriber and network ports, for both bump-in-the-wire and external switching
topologies.
