7.6 Connect to ILOM via a Serial Connection
You can connect to ILOM via a serial connection if you are unable to access ILOM via
the network due to any of the following problems:
• Misconfiguration of the network
• Misconfiguration of ILOM IP addresses
• Misconfiguration of Cisco Ethernet switch ports
• Sideband configuration issues
Note:
You can reconfigure network access after connecting to ILOM via a serial
connection. For more information, see Reconfigure the Network Access.
7.6.1 Connect to the ILOM of a Compute Node
To connect to ILOM of a compute node in the Exalogic machine using a serial
connection, complete the following steps:
1. Attach a serial cable from a terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software
to the SER MGT port of an Exalogic compute node. The cable should be of length
15 feet or less.
2. Verify that your terminal or laptop is operational.
3. Configure the terminal device or the terminal emulation software to use the
following settings:
• 8N1: eight data bits, no parity, one stop bit
• 9600 baud (default, but can be set to any standard rate up to 115200)
• Disable software flow control (XON/XOFF)
• Disable hardware control
4. Verify that power is supplied to either PSU.
If there is power applied to either PSU, then ILOM will be functional regardless of
the power state of compute nodes.
5.
Press Enter on the terminal device. A connection between the terminal device and
the ILOM is established.
The ILOM login prompt is displayed.
6.
Log in to the CLI using the default user name root.
The ILOM default command prompt is displayed.
