Connect the JCS 1200 Management Module to a Client Computer Through an Ethernet Connection

To connect the management module to a client computer using the Ethernet port:

1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis. For more information about ESD, see the JCS 1200 Platform Hardware Guide.
2. Connect one end of a Category 5 or higher Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the management module. See Figure 8 for the location of ports on the management module.
3. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the client computer.
4. Check the Ethernet LEDs to make sure that the network connection is working.
   • A lit green Ethernet LINK LED indicates that there is an active connection through the port to the network.
   • A flashing green Ethernet activity (TX/RX) LED indicates that there is activity through the port over the network link.

For information about establishing a connection to the management module for the first time, see the JCS 1200 Platform Hardware Guide.
