B Connecting to the Service Processor
You can connect the maintenance PC to the service processor (SP) either through a serial connection
or an Ethernet connection (LAN). When you are connected to the SP by a serial or Ethernet
connection, there are two SP user interfaces know as SPOCC and SPMAINT. Use either interface
to perform various administrative and diagnostic tasks.
NOTE: Connecting to the SP through the LAN (Ethernet) requires establishing a Secure Shell
Session (SSH). If you do not have SSH, connect to the serial port of the SP.
Using a Serial Connection
To use a serial connection:
Procedure 1
1. Locate the SP and attach the DB9 crossover serial adapter (P/N 180–0055) that is at the free
end of the blue Ethernet cable to the Serial port on your maintenance PC. Use a standard
Category 5 Ethernet cable with the appropriate RJ-45 to DB9 adapter to connect to the DB9
Serial port of SP.
2. Insert a standard Category 5 Ethernet cable into the SP serial port with the DB9 crossover
serial to RJ45 adapter (P/N 180–0055).
