7. Use the IP address to connect to the iLO 2 MP LAN.
8. Use Web or telnet access to connect to the iLO 2 MP from a host on the local subnet and
complete the rest of the LAN parameter (gateway, subnet).
Configuring the iLO 2 MP LAN Using the RS-232 Serial Port
To configure the iLO 2 MP LAN using the RS-232 serial port, follow these steps:
IMPORTANT: Do not configure duplicate IP addresses on different servers within the same
network. The duplicate server IP addresses conflict and the servers cannot connect to the network.
The LC command enables you to configure an IP address, host name, subnet mask, and gateway
address.
IMPORTANT: Ensure you have a console connection through the RS-232 serial port or a network
connection through the LAN to access the iLO 2 MP and use the LC command.
To assign a static IP address using the LC command, follow these steps:
1. Ensure the emulation software device is properly configured. The terminal emulation device
runs software that interfaces with the server. The software emulates console output as it
would appear on an ASCII terminal screen and displays it on a console device screen. To
ensure the emulation software is correctly configured, follow these steps:
a.
Verify that the communication settings are configured as follows:
•
8/none (parity)
• 9600 baud
• None (receive)
• None (transmit)
b. Verify that the terminal type is configured appropriately. Supported terminal types are:
•
hpterm
• vt100
• vt100+
• vt-utf8
IMPORTANT: Do not mix hpterm and vt100 terminal types at the same time.
There are many different emulation software applications. Consult the help section of the
emulation software application for instructions on how to configure the software options.
2. Determine the required connection components, and the ports used to connect the server
to the console device.
3. Connect the cables from the appropriate ports to the server.
4. Start the emulation software on the console device.
5. Log in to the iLO 2 MP. See “Logging In to the iLO 2 MP” (page 89) .
6. At the MP Main Menu, enter CM and press Enter to select command mode.
7. At the command mode prompt, enter LS and press Enter. The screen displays the default
LAN configuration values. Write down the default values, or log the information to a file.
You may need the information for future troubleshooting.
