Connecting to a Netwo rk for Out-of-Band Mana gement
To connect the Routing Engine to a network for out-of-band management, connect
an Ethernet cable with RJ-45/RJ-45 connectors to t he
ETHERNET port on the CIP. One
such cable is provided with the router. For cable specifications, see Routing Engine
Interface Cable and Wire Specifications on page 74. Follow this procedure:
1. Turn off the power to the management device.
2. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable (Figure 57 shows the connector) into the
appropriate
ETHERNET port on the CIP. Figure 56 shows the external device
ports on the CIP. The ports labeled
HOST 0 connect to the Routing Engine in the
upper Routing Engine slot (
RE 0), and the ports labeled HOST 1 connect to the
Routing Engine in the lower Routing Engine s lot (
RE 1).
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the network device.

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 on page 74.
To connect a management console or auxiliary device, follow this procedure:
1. Turn off the power to the console or auxiliary device.
2. Plug the female end (shown in Figure 58) of the provided serial cable into the
appropriate
CONSOLE or AUXILIARY port. Figure 56 shows the external device
ports on the CIP. The ports labeled
HOST 0 connect to the Routing Engine in the
upper Routing Engine slot (
RE 0), and the ports labeled HOST 1 connect to the
