Management Interfaces
The management interfaces on the S320 OCS provide Ethernet and serial connectivity: two (2)
Ethernet connections are used to control the switch using TL1 via a Telnet session, or using the
browser-based graphical user interface (GUI); a single serial connection provides the means for
retrieving or setting the switch’s IP address and performing TL1 operations.
The type of serial connection and the location of the management interfaces vary, depending
on which version (1 or 2) of the S320 OCS is being used.
3.3.4.1
Version 1
Management interfaces on version 1 of the switch (Figure 8) include:
Two (2) Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) RJ45 connectors, labeled NMS LAN A and B. These
interfaces are arranged vertically and located to the left of the LED indicators.
One (1) DB9 connector—labeled CRAFT PORT—provides serial connectivity. This
interface is located to the left of the RJ45 Ethernet connectors.
