Powering On the System 51
In this procedure, you connect to the ILOM service processor using the serial
management port to manually reconfigure the network management port.
Note – For more information on configuring ILOM, refer to the Integrated Lights Out
Manager Supplement for Sun SPARC Enterprise 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 pendingipdiscovery - 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 target and
pendingipaddress=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, for example, is the property=value.
1. Configure the service processor using information from your network
administrator.
Your choices are:
■ dhcp - Set up the network connection with a dynamically created IP
configuration.
■ static - Set up the network connection with a static IP configuration.
a. If you choose to use a dynamically created IP address (use DHCP to retrieve
the network setting), set pendingipdiscovery to dhcp.
b. If you choose to configure a static IP configuration, set the parameters
pendingipdiscovery, pendingipaddress, pendingipgateway, and
pendingipnetmask as follows.
i. Set the service processor to accept a static IP address.
-> set /SP/network pendingipdiscovery=dhcp
Set 'pendingipdiscovery' to 'dhcp'
-> set /SP/network pendingipdiscovery=static
Set 'pendingipdiscovery' to 'static'
