5 Startup

This chapter describes the Acme Packet 6300/6350 startup; this includes the following tasks:

• Powering on the Acme Packet 6300/6350.
• Creating the first console connection to the Acme Packet 6300/6350.

You can perform these actions in any order. However, if your console connection is configured first, you can observe the booting processes as your Acme Packet 6300/6350 goes online.

The last section of this chapter explains how to login to your system.
