42 Chapter 3 Installing the Passport 8683POS Module
209564-A
If you have one MDA installed, you can proceed to configure the Passport
8683POS Module.
MDA insertion and configuration
Once you insert an MDA, you must complete some basic configuration tasks for
the Passport 8683POS Module to begin switching operations as soon as it
completes initialization. For information on installing MDAs, refer to Installing
the Passport 8683POS Module MDAs.
To verify that the Passport 8683POS Module is ready to receive and transmit
traffic, check the LEDs on the module and the MDA. Once you enable the ports
using the CLI or Device Manager, the online LED on the module lights steady
green, and the module is ready. See “Online LED” on page 27 and “MDA LEDs”
on page 28.
For information on enabling ports, refer to “Enabling or disabling a port” on
page 59.
You configure and manage the Passport 8600 series switch operation for your
network using the command line interface (CLI) or SNMP-based network
management software, such as Device Manager. For information on configuring
and managing the Passport 8683POS Module, refer to Chapter 4, “Managing the
Passport 8683POS Module,” on page 45.
Factory default settings for the Passport 8683POS Module are shown in Table 9
on page 54.
Note: You must save your configuration (using either the CLI or Device
Manager) to preserve the configuration changes you made to the
Passport 8683POS Module across reboots.
