Notes:
• For redundancy, it is recommended to connect each of the Ethernet
connectors to a different switch.
• When assigning an IP address to the Mediant 1000 using HTTP (in Step 1,
Section 3.1.1), you may be required to disconnect this cable and re-cable it
differently.
5. Using the supplied RS-232 cable, connect the Mediant 1000 RS-232 port (Labeled I0I0) to
either the COM1 or COM2 RS-232 communication port on your PC. Using the RS-232 port is
optional.
