Installation:
WX 50, WX 60, and WXC 500 QUICK START
Set up the chassis.
•
For rack mount installation, install the supplied brackets, front panel
forward, to the sides of the device.
•
For desktop installation, install the supplied rubber stands in the
recessed areas on the bottom of the chassis.
NOTE: Do not connect the power cable until Step 4.
Connect the network cables.
To connect the network cables:
•
Locate the cable that connects from the switch (or other aggregating
device) to the router.
•
Disconnect this cable from the router port and connect it to the
LOCAL port on the WX device.
•
Connect a straight-through cable (not provided) from the router port
to the REMOTE port on the WX device.
Verify connectivity across the WX device.
One method of testing connectivity between devices is to Ping a host on
the remote side of the device from a host on the local side of the device.
NOTE: If you are not able to verify connectivity on both sides of the device,
do not proceed to the next step. Ensure that you are using the correct cables
(crossover vs. straight-through), and verify that there is network connectivity
before applying power.
