A.1 LAN port for server management

The ASUS server motherboards that support the ASMB2 comes with two LAN (RJ-45) ports: one for network connection and the other for server management. For easy identification, the LAN port for server management is the LAN port near the VGA port. You must use the LAN port for server management to connect the remote server to the local/central host (direct LAN connection) or to the network hub or router.
