Connecting Ethernet

The Profile system supports a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet interface. Figure 4-4 shows the
location of the 10/100BASE-T Ethernet interface connector on the System CPU board
in slot J1. See Appendix B for connector pin-out information.

To connect your Profile system to Ethernet:

1. Turn the Profile system power Off. (See page 3-2 for power on/off procedures.)

2. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Profile system Ethernet connector as shown in

Figure 4-4.

3. Power On your Profile system and configure the Ethernet board IP address as

described in “Configuring Ethernet for TCP/IP”, page 4-5.

4. If you are also connecting Fibre Channel, proceed to “Connecting Fibre Channel”,

page 4-6.

If a problem occurs, see “Initial Power On Checks”, page 3-7.
