Dust or chemical contamination at the endface of a fiber optic LC connector or transceiver module impedes signaling. Dell engineering teams have verified cases in which a fully functional port appears to be a bad port because dirty optical connectors manifest as a port failing loop testing with acceptable power measurement levels. Cable connectors should be cleaned and when stored must be protected from dust particle or chemical contamination.

This guide provides instructions on how to configure management networks for accessing networked devices using console servers, Ethernet out-of-band, and Ethernet in-band. Large production networks can span across multiple rooms, buildings, or cities, and contain dozens or hundreds of network switches. Using a management network separate from the production network is often desired to configure and manage these environments. There are three types of management networks that are discussed in this guide, each offering its benefits. Network administrators may use one or more methods to configure, test, and manage their setups.
