Connecting to the IP Network
When you ordered your router or BNX platform, you also ordered a cable to
connect the router or BNX platform to the IP network. Connect it using the
following procedure:
1. Connect the cable to your router or BNX platform.
Table 4-1 gives the standard ports (also called connectors) for initially
connecting the router or BNX platform to the IP network.
You can configure any port on a router or BNX platform for the initial IP
connection by modifying the connection port in the Quick-Start installation
script described in Chapter 6.
For information on the location of the port on your router or BNX platform,
refer to the installation manual that came with your router or BNX platform.
2. Connect the cable to the IP network.
The connection depends upon your LAN or WAN configuration.
