How to Configure the Remote System
Control (RSC) Ethernet Interface

Before You Begin

You must perform the following tasks:

Install the system hardware and software; complete the prerequisite network-
related preparations at the beginning of the section “How to Install the Sun Fire
280R Server” on page 15

Attach a cable to the RSC Ethernet port; see “How to Connect a Twisted-Pair
Ethernet (TPE) Cable” on page 57

Install the RSC software package from the Computer Systems Supplement
Software CD

Note –

You can configure only one Ethernet interface during installation of the

operating system. You cannot configure the RSC Ethernet port until the RSC
software has been installed. To configure additional interfaces, see “How to Add an
Ethernet Interface” on page 54.

What to Do

You cannot use the RSC TPE port until you or your system administrator has
installed the RSC software and configured the TPE port.

Consult the Sun Remote System Control (RSC) User’s Guide for instructions about
how to configure and use the RSC TPE Ethernet port.
