Cabling Notes for Both Servers

Minimum cable connections for the servers:

At least one system on-board Ethernet network connection (NET port)

The service processor serial management port (SER MGT port)

The service processor network management port (NET MGT port)

Power cables for the two system power supplies

Service processor management ports: There are two service processor management ports for use with the ILOM service processor.

The service processor serial management port (labeled SER MGT) uses an RJ- 45 cable and is always available. This is the default connection to the ILOM service processor.

The service processor network management port (labeled NET MGT) is the optional connection to the ILOM service processor. This port is not available until you have configured network settings for the service processor (through the service processor serial management port). See “Enabling the Service Processor Network Management Port” on page 46. The service processor network management port uses an RJ-45 cable for a 10/100 BASE-T connection. This port does not support connections to Gigabit networks.

See the SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Servers Overview for more information.
