section has the following procedure:
 “Starting a Local Management Session” on page 214
 “Entering the Management Software Commands” on page 215
The initial management session must be a local management session. For
instructions on how to configure the chassis for remote management with
Telnet and Secure Shell clients, refer to Software Reference for
SwitchBlade x3100 Series Switches.
Starting a Local
Management
Session
To start a local management session, perform the following procedure:
1. Connect the RJ-45 end of the management card included with the AT-
SBx31CFC960 Controller Fabric Card to the Console RS-232 port on
the front panel of the AT-SBx31CFC960 Card, as shown in
Figure 149. If the chassis has two controller cards, you must connect
the cable to the Console RS-232 port on the active card. To determine
which card is the active card, examine the M/S LEDs. The LEDs are
green on the active card and amber on the standby card.
