To connect to the serial port, use the DB-9 non-null serial cable supplied with the system.

3.2.2Connecting using Telnet

Once the administrator configures the Ethernet port on the RamSan using either the front panel or the serial port, you may remotely monitor the system using a Telnet session. Set your terminal settings to VT100 mode.

In order to use the Ethernet port, first configure the IP address for the RamSan by using the front panel display or from the serial port. For complete instructions for configuring the Ethernet, please refer to Section 4.2 Configuring Ethernet settings.
