Connection and Login Methods

Make sure your laptop meets the hardware and software requirements.

Plug an Ethernet crossover cable (MDI to MDI-X) into the 10/100 BaseT Ethernet network 
interface card (NIC) on your laptop. 

— Crossover cables of various lengths are commercially available. 

— See the following table for pinout connections if needed. Crossover of the transmit and 

receive pairs (as shown) is required.

Connect the other end of the crossover cable to the Services port on the front of the S8300.

laptop, always type the following IP address in the browser's Address or Location field to access

To configure a G700 that does not have an S8300, you may need to set up a direct connection from your 
laptop’s serial port to the G700 Console (serial) port.

For a stacked configuration, locate the device that contains the master controller for the stack. 
Check the LED panel on the upper left of each G700 or P330 device in the stack as follows:

— G700 Media Gateway: a lit 

 LED indicates that this unit is the stack master.

— A non-G700 P330 device: a lit 

 LED indicates that this unit is the stack master.
