MX7000 chassis. On successful connection, LED under the micro-USB on the right control panel of MX7000 chassis turns green
and USB Ethernet adapter is displayed on the host. The chassis is automatically configured with an IPV4 and IPV6 address. After
ensuring that the addresses are configured, open a web browser and enter the URL, https://ome-m.local in the address
bar.
On laptops running Windows, if the IPV6 traffic is blocked, check the Remote Network Driver Interface Specification (RNDIS)
interface for IPv6 address. You may be able to access chassis phonebook page through IPv4, but iDRAC and OME-Modular web
consoles are inaccessible. In that case, enable IPv6 traffic flow on the system.
When you enable or disable the Chassis Direct feature in OME-Modular, the following error codes are displayed:
The Chassis Direct feature in OME-Modular has a mutual exclusivity with the Quick Sync feature. Before downgrading the
management module firmware from 1.10.00 version to an earlier version, remove the USB cable that is connected to the front
panel of chassis. If USB cable is not removed and 1.10.00 firmware is downgraded, the Quick Sync feature may be degraded. AC
power cycle of chassis to restore Quick Sync back to health.
● The chassis has Quick Sync, and the Chassis Direct feature is enabled. That is, the USB cable is attached to the USB
connector on the front panel.
● The management module version is downgraded from 1.10.00 to an earlier version.

If the Chassis Direct feature is disabled and the USB cable is inserted, the Chassis Direct LED turns amber and the alert,
USR0197, is displayed on the OME-Modular web interface. You can see the alert only if you have logged in to OME-Modular
using the public network. If you repeat the action within a short interval, the alert is not displayed. However, the Chassis Direct
LED remains amber as the MM suppresses consecutive duplicate alerts.
