Connecting a CTP151 Device to a Network for Out-of-Band Management

Ensure that you have an appropriate cable available.

You can monitor and manage the CTP151 device using a dedicated management channel. The CTP151 device has four 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports, two SFP+ ports, one management port, one RJ-45 console port, one Mini-USB console port, and one USB 3.0 port. Use the management port to connect the CTP151 device to a network for out-of-band management.

To connect a CTP151 device to a network for out-of-band management (see Figure 1):

  1. Connect one end of the cable to the management port (labeled MGMT) on the CTP151 device.
  2. Connect the other end of the cable to the management switch (see Figure 1).
