Power On
Now that you’ve installed your MX10004 in the rack and grounded the chassis, you’re ready to connect it to power.
The MX10004 supports AC, DC, high-voltage alternang current (HVAC), and high-voltage direct current (HVDC). In
this guide, we show you how to connect AC power. For DC, HVAC, and HVDC installaons, see MX10004 Universal
Roung Plaorm Hardware Guide.
1. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD grounding strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other end to one of
the ESD grounding points on the router.
2. Turn o the power switch on the power supply.
3. If the power source outlet has a power switch, turn it o.
4. Aach each AC power supply to a dedicated power source.
NOTE: If you need power source redundancy, you can aach each power cable to separate power sources.
5. For each AC power cable, insert the end of the cable with the Anderson connector into the power supply. The
connector snaps and locks the cable into posion.
WARNING: Ensure that the power cord does not block access to router components or drape
where people can trip on it.
6. Set the three DIP switches on the power supply to indicate whether one or both power feeds are used, and to
indicate the amperage of the feeds. Together, these switches determine if the chassis operates at 3,000 W, 5,000
W, or 5,500 W. If you're using both power feeds, set switch 1 and switch 2 to the on (|) posion. Power is shared. If
you’re not using power source redundancy, set the unused source to the o (O) posion. The LED turns red and
indicates an error if a power source input is not in use and the DIP switch is on (|).

• If you want to use an RCB that has Junos OS release prior to 22.3R1 or if the show version command displays the
router model as mx10016-olive, you must use the USB install method (not the CLI method) to upgrade the Junos OS
release on the RCB to 22.3R1 or later.
1. Connect the console port on the MX10004 to a laptop or PC using the supplied RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9
adapter. The console (CONSOLE) port is located on the Roung and Control Board (RCB).
2. Verify that your laptop or PC has the following default values:
• Baud Rate—9600
• Flow Control—None
• Data—8
• Parity—None
• Stop Bits—1
• DCD State—Disregard
3. Log in as root. There is no password. If the soware boots before you connect to the console port, you might need
to press the Enter key for the prompt to appear.
login: root
4. Start the CLI.
root@% cli
5. Enter conguraon mode.

NOTE: Oponally, instead of conguring the root password at the [edit system] hierarchy level, you can use
a conguraon group to strengthen security.
7. (Oponal) Congure the name of the router. If the name includes spaces, enclose the name in quotaon marks (“ ”).
You can congure the router name at the [edit system] hierarchy level.
[edit]
root@# set system host-name
host-name
If your MX10004 router has two RCBs, it is recommended you use a conguraon group. You can use group-name
as re0 or re1.
[edit]
root@# set groups
group-name
system host-name
host-name
For Example:
[edit]
root@# set groups re0 system host-name alpha-router0
[edit]
root@# set groups re1 system host-name alpha-router1
8. Congure the default gateway.
[edit]
root@# set routing-options static route default next-hop
address
9. Congure the IP address and prex length for the router management interface.
[edit]
root@# set interfaces em0 unit 0 family inet address
address/prefix-length
NOTE: The management port, em0 (MGMT for RJ-45 connecons) is found on the front of the RCBs of the
MX10004 router.
If your MX10004 router has two RCBs, you can congure each RCB with a separate IP address for the
management Ethernet interface.
