Connecting the Router to a Management Console or Auxiliary Device
To use a system console to configure and manage the Routing Engine, connect it to the
appropriate CONSOLE port on the front panel. To use a laptop, modem, or other auxiliary
device, connect it to the AUX port on the front panel. Both ports accept a cable with an
RJ-45 connector. One serial cable with an RJ-45 connector and a DB-9 connector is
provided with the router. To connect a device to the CONSOLE port and another device
to the AUX port, you must supply an additional cable.
To connect a management console or auxiliary device:
1. Turn off the power to the console or auxiliary device.
