The following table show the LED indicators and the corresponding status:
10GBase-X (SFP+) Ports
The Mobility Master hardware appliance is equipped with two 10GBase-X (SFP+) data ports (0 and 1).
These ports are intended for use with SFP/SFP+.
SFP/SFP+ modules are 10Gb hot-swappable, optical transceivers, which convert serial electrical
signals to external serial optical or electrical signals. The ports support dual speed (1GbE or 10GbE)
operation.
Each 10GBASE-X port is equipped with two LEDs that allow basic monitoring of status, activity, and
configuration of the port. The behavior of the STATUS LED can be changed using the CLI.
LINK— Placed on the top left of the port, this LED displays the link status and activity of the port.
SPEED— Placed on the top right of the port, this LED displays the link speed at the port.
The LED behavior corresponding to each mode is listed in the following table.
USB Interface
Currently, this port is not supported and is reserved for future use.

Console Port
Use the serial CONSOLE port to allow direct local management. This port is a RJ-45 female connector
that accepts an RS-232 serial cable with a male connector. See Figure 3.
Figure 3 Serial Console Port Pin-Out
The communication settings for the Console port is shown in the following table:
USB to Serial Interface Cable
A USB to serial interface cable can be used to connect the serial console port of the Mobility Master
hardware appliance to a USB port of laptop or PC. See Figure 4.
Figure 4 USB to Serial Interface Cable
Management Port
The Mobility Master hardware appliance is equipped with a 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Management
(RJ-45) port.
The management port provides 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet access to the Mobility Master hardware
appliance CLI, SNMP, and Web interface for complete system management and troubleshooting. It
can also be used to connect to a separate management network.
