Serial management connection
Serial communication enables any computer that has an available serial port and terminal emulation applica-
tion to access the Vess Command Line Interface (CLI) to set up a network connection. The Vess package in-
cludes one RJ11-to-DB9 serial data cable for each controller.
To set up a serial cable connection:
1. Attach the RJ-11 end of the serial data cable to the RJ-11 serial connector on one of the RAID controllers.
2. Attach the DB9 end of the serial data cable to a serial port on the host PC or server.
Network management connection
Each Vess R3600 Series controller has a 1000BASE-T Ethernet port labeled MGMT/IO used for management
via network connection.
To establish the management path network connection:
1. Attach one end of an Ethernet cable to the network connector or standard NIC in the Host PC, attach the
other end of the Ethernet cable to a port on a standard network switch.
2. Attach one end of an Ethernet cable to the same network switch and attach the other end to the MGMT/IO
port on controller 1.
3. If the subsystem is dual controller, connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the same network switch and
attach the other end to the MGMT/IO port on controller 2.
