Using the Local I/O Cable
The local I/O cable enables the user to perform server blade administration,
configuration, and diagnostic procedures in two ways:
Connecting locally to the server blade iLO interface
Connecting video and USB devices directly to the server blade
Local Administration Using iLO
To connect locally to iLO with the local I/O cable, you must have the following:
A client device with a 10/100 Ethernet RJ-45 connector
A network cable with RJ-45 connectors
To connect to iLO:
CAUTION: Do not connect the local I/O cable to a hub when
connecting to iLO. All server blades have the same IP address through
the I/O port. Multiples on a hub make the server blades
indistinguishable on the network.
