CHANGING THE IP ADDRESS OF THE ILOM SP

■

■

A Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface supports network management using SNMP versions 1, 2c, or 3.

A web server supports Remote Console operations. The server provides a browser- accessible ILOM graphical user interface (GUI) and supports VTL Value console redirection. By downloading a Java application from the ILOM web interface, users can access the Solaris desktop on a remote VTL Value appliance using a local keyboard, monitor, and mouse.

Changing the IP address of the ILOM SP

The ILOM Ethernet management interface of the VTL appliance ships preconfigured with a private IP address. To complete the VTL hardware-installation process, you must change this private IP address to a customer specified address on the customer’s local area network (LAN). This section explains:

▼Attaching a laptop to the ILOM via the VTL private network

The VTL Value server incorporates a service processor running the Sun Integrated Lights Out Management (ILOM) interface. ILOM is a Java-based remote management tool that can export the Solaris desktop from a VTL Value server to a browser running on another computer. VTL Value servers come preconfigured with a temporary IP address that is located on a private subnet. To connect a laptop to the server, you simply join the private subnet by setting your laptop’s IP address, attach a network cable, and open a web browser to the VTL Value server’s ILOM address. This section describes the procedure in detail.

1.On your laptop, configure your local area network (LAN) connection using the IP address 10.0.0.77.

The recommended address is on the private, 10.0.0.0 subnet used internally by the VTL appliance. For a list of other, reserved IP addresses on this network, see Appendix B, “VTL private network addresses” on page 41.

2.Connect the LAN port of the laptop to the Ethernet management (NETMGT) port on the VTL server (A below) using either of the following:
