Cabling the Ethernet port
You can connect to an Ethernet port directly from a personal computer (PC) using a
cross-over cable, or you can make the connection through an Ethernet switch.
The right Ethernet port on the LAN module is driven by management module 1, and
the left Ethernet port of the LAN module is driven by management module 2.
