Accessing and Using System Administration Tools 23
Cable the Server for a Management Connection to
Oracle ILOM
1.
Determine the type of management connection to Oracle ILOM that best suits
your environment.
For information about management connections to Oracle ILOM, see “Oracle ILOM
Management Connection Options” on page 22.
2.
To establish a dedicated remote network management connection to Oracle
ILOM, perform the following steps:
a.
Connect an Ethernet cable between the NET MGT port on the server and the
network switch.
DHCP and IPv6 stateless auto-configuration are enabled by default, allowing a DHCP
server on the network to automatically assign network settings to the service processor
(SP).
b.
Determine the IP address assigned to the server SP.
To determine the dynamic IP address in Oracle ILOM, establish a serial connection to
Oracle ILOM, and then view the properties under the /network and /network/ipv6
hierarchies.
Once you have cabled the server for a remote Ethernet connection to the SP, you
can log in to Oracle ILOM from a remote system on the network. For further
instructions, see “Launch and Log In to Oracle ILOM Through a Remote Ethernet
Connection” on page 24.
3.
To establish a local serial management connection to Oracle ILOM, perform the
following steps:
a.
Connect a serial cable between the SER MGT port on the server and a
terminal device.
This connection provides your initial communication with the server service processor
(SP). Configure the terminal device with the following settings: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1
stop bit, and no parity (9600/8-N-1).
b.
To create a local connection to Oracle ILOM, press Return.
The Oracle ILOM login prompt appears. For further instructions, see “Log In to Oracle
ILOM Through a Local Serial Connection” on page 26.
4.
To establish a remote sideband management connection to Oracle ILOM, refer to
Sideband Network Management Connection in the Oracle ILOM Administrator's
Guide for Configuration and Maintenance, Firmware Release 3.2.x.
