10. To assign a static IP ADDRESS, type the following commands in exact order:

ELOM:

set /SP/network IPSource=static

set /SP/network IPAddress=

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

set /SP/network Netmask=

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

set /SP/network Gateway=

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Where xxx = IP address numbers

ILOM:

set /SP/network/ pendingipdiscovery=static

set /SP/network/ pendingipaddress=

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

set /SP/network/ pendingipnetmask=

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

set /SP/networks/ pendingipgateway=

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

set /SP/networks/ commitpending=true

Where xxx = IP address numbers

Example 2

To change the service processor (SP) static IP address to a DHCP IP address using
the serial connection (system management port), perform the following steps:

1. Connect a terminal (or a PC running terminal emulation software) to the server

serial port.

2. Ensure that the server hardware is installed and cables are inserted.

3. Verify that your terminal, laptop, PC, or terminal server is operational.

4. Configure the terminal device or the terminal emulation software running on a

laptop or PC to the following settings:

8,N,1: eight data bits, no parity, one stop bit

9600 baud

Disable hardware flow control (CTS/RTS)

Disable software flow control (XON/XOFF)

5. Connect a null serial modem cable from the server’s back panel serial

management to a terminal device (If not connected already).

See

FIGURE 1-4

for the serial port position.

6. Press Enter on the terminal device to establish a connection between the

terminal device and the LOM SP. The prompt appears.
