Establish the Connection
1. Connect the device to the Internet Service Provider (ISP) by using the following step:
NOTE: For information on interface mapping, see Table 2 and Table 3.
Connect one of the WAN ports such as heth-0-4 or heth-0-5 to the ISP. The device is assigned an IP address by the ISP through
DHCP.
Figure 4: Connecting the Interfaces on an NFX150-C-S1 Device
Optionally, you can obtain a SIM card from the ISP and connect the device through LTE. For more information about SIM card
activation, see the Getting Started with NFX150 available at:
2. Connect the laptop to one of the front panel LAN ports such as heth-0-0, heth-0-1, heth-0-2, or heth-0-3. The laptop is assigned
an IP address by the DHCP server running on the interface.

WARNING: Failure to observe the following safety warnings can result in personal injury or death:
•
Permit only trained and qualified personnel to install or replace device components.
•
Perform only the procedures described in this Quick Start Guide and the NFX150 documentation. Other services
must be performed only by authorized service personnel.
•
Before installing the device, read the planning instructions in the NFX150 documentation to make sure that the
site meets power, environmental, and clearance requirements for the device.
•
Before connecting the device to a power source, read the installation instructions in the NFX150 documentation.
•
Before installing or after removing an electrical component, always place it component-side up on an antistatic
mat placed on a flat, stable surface or in an antistatic bag.
•
Do not work on the device or connect or disconnect cables during electrical storms.
•
Before working on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove jewelry, including rings, necklaces, and
watches. Metal objects heat up when connected to power and ground and can cause serious burns or become
welded to the terminals.
