Sun Microsystems 440 manual To Activate the Network Management Port

Page 32

Data centers frequently devote a separate subnet to system management. If your data center has such a configuration, connect the network management port to this subnet.

Note – The network management port is a 10BASE-T port. The IP address assigned to the network management port is a unique IP address, separate from the main Netra 440 server IP address, and is dedicated for use only with the ALOM system controller. For more information, see the Netra 440 Server Product Overview.

▼To Activate the Network Management Port

1.Connect an Ethernet cable to the network management port.

2.Log in to the ALOM system controller through the serial management port.

For more information about connecting to the serial management port, see “Accessing the System Controller” on page 16.

3.Type one of the following commands:

■ If your network uses static IP addresses, type:

sc> setsc if_network true

sc> setsc netsc_ipaddr ip-addresssc> setsc netsc_ipnetmask ip-addresssc> setsc netsc_ipgateway ip-address

■If your network uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), type:

sc> setsc netsc_dhcp

4.Enter the following so that the new settings will take affect:

sc> resetsc

5.To verify the network settings, type:

sc> shownetwork

6. Log out of the ALOM system controller session.
