Chapter
Initial Start-Up of the MGX 8220 Shelf
Initial Start-Up of the MGX 8220 Shelf
Before applying power to the MGX 8220 shelf, check the following items:
1. Shelf is properly grounded.
2. AC or DC power sources are properly installed and connected.
3. All the cards are in their proper slots and are locked in place.
4. T1, E1, and T3 cables are installed.
5. Control console is connected.
To apply power to a DC system, press the black button on each of the power entry modules until they
latch in the IN position. To apply power to an AC system, switch the circuit breakers on the rear of the
power module to the ON position.
The LEDs on the front cards flash for a few moments while the shelf performs a self-test and then settle
down to Active or Standby.
When power is applied and the LEDs are stabilized,
• Press the HIST button on the BNM to clear the hist LED.
• Enter the clrallcnf (clear all configuration) command to each card set in the shelf. Chapter 4,
“MGX 8220 Service Modules,” provides details of this command.
Initial Configuration
Before the MGX 8220 shelf can receive commands, SNMP requests, file downloads, and so on, the shelf
must be assigned IP addresses for the control port, the LAN port, and the in-band channel. This
procedure requires a alpha-numeric terminal to be connected to the maintenance port of the active ASC
card and addresses assigned through the command line interface. Refer to the Cisco MGX 8220
Command Reference for details on how to log in and use the specific commands.
Complete the following steps:
Step 1 Press the Return key to indicate the presence of your terminal to the shelf. The login prompt will
appear.
Step 2 Log in to the active ASC card by typing your account, your password, and the ASC’s slot number.
Step 3 Configure the IP address for each port (control, LAN, and in-band) entering the cnfifip command. (See
Chapter 3, “Managing the Cisco MGX 8220 Shelf,” for more details.)
The cnfifip command is entered in the format cnfifip -ip <ip address> -if <interface type> -msk
<subnet mask address> -bc <broadcast address>
<ip address> specifies an IP address for the destination in dotted decimal format
<interface type> specified as 28 for the control port, 37 for the in-band port, and 26
for the LAN port
<subnet mask address> and
<broadcast address>
specify the mask and broadcast addresses in dotted decimal format
