Note – Sun equipment conforms to the Ethernet 10/100BASE-T standard, which states that the 10/100BASE-T Link Integrity Test function should always be enabled on both the host and the hub. If you have problems verifying connection between Sun equipment and your hub, verify that your hub also has the link test function enabled. See Section 3.4, “Failure of Network Communications,” and refer to the manual provided with your hub for more information about the Link Integrity Test function.
2.6 Connecting an ASCII Terminal
An ASCII terminal (or workstation) must be attached to the server to display diagnostic messages produced by the firmware (power-on self test/POST or OpenBoot PROM/OBP) program. A terminal is not required for normal server operations, so it may be necessary to locate a terminal to connect to the server.
1.Connect the terminal cable into serial port A on the clock board. See Figure 2-10.
