Configuring user accounts
LO100 supports four accounts types, with varying levels of permissions to view and control
features. For more information on user accounts, see the "User administration" section. Two
accounts are available by default, one of type administrator and one of type operator.
The administrator account enables the user to execute the full set of CLP commands and change
management processor configuration. The default administrator account user name is admin,
and the default password is admin.
The operator account enables the user to execute common commands and functions but restricts
access to specific functions, such as adding and changing user account information and changing
the configuration of the management processor. HP recommends logging in with the operator
account to perform common functions. The default user name is Operator, and the default
password is Operator.
For more information on how to log in to LO100, see the "Logging in to LO100" section.
Accessing BIOS Setup Utility and using function keys
Throughout the document, the F10 key is listed as the standard method of accessing the BIOS
Setup Utility, saving changes, and exiting the utility. In some cases, the function keys (F keys)
might not pass through the telnet client correctly to the remote system. If this occurs, use the
following ESC key equivalents:
•
F8–ESC+8
•
F10–ESC+0
•
F12–ESC+@
Using the serial port
The server serial port provides basic serial port functionality and serves as an interface to LO100.
You can configure the system serial port for exclusive use with LO100.
CAUTION:
After enabling the serial port for use with LO100, legacy serial devices might not
function correctly if attached to the serial port.
You must configure the LO100 serial port hardware parameters to work with your respective
serial port communications software. LO100 serial port configuration is controlled through the
BIOS Setup Utility.
