Chapter 3 Powering On the System 47
▼To Configure the Service Processor Network
Management Port
Note – If your network allows the use of DHCP,this configuration is performed
automatically the first time you boot the system.
Use this procedure only when:
■Youare unable to use DHCP on your network.
■Youneed to modify the ILOM service processor network management port
settings.
In this procedure, you connect to the ILOM service processor using the serial
management port to manually reconfigure the network management port.
Note – For moreinformation on configuringILOM, refer to the Integrated Lights Out
Manager 2.0 Supplement for SPARCEnterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers.
Set these network parameters according to the specific details of your network
configuration:
■/SP/network state – Specifies whether the service processor is on the network
or not
■/SP/network pendingipaddress – IP address of the service processor
■/SP/network pendingipgateway – IP address of the gateway for the subnet
■/SP/network pendingipnetmask – Netmask for the service processor subnet
■/SP/network pindingipdiscovery - Specifies whether the service processor
uses DHCP or static IP address assignment
■/SP/network commitpending - Commits the service processor to use the
pending settings
Configure these parameters with the set command. The usage is as follows:
set target property=value where /SP/network is the targetand
pendingipaddress=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, for example, is the property=value.
3. Configure the service processor using information from your network
administrator.
Yourchoices are
■dhcp - Set up the network connection with a dynamically created IP
configuration.
■static - Set up the network connection with a static IP configuration.
