32 SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Installation Guide February 2008
Note The service processor network management port is configured by default to
retrieve network settings with Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and
allow connections using Solaris Secure Shell (SSH). You might need to modify these
settings for your network. Instructions are given in Chapter 3.
Connect a Category 5 cable from the NET MGT network management port to
your network switch or hub.
To Connect the Ethernet Network Cables
The server has four network connectors, marked NET0, NET1, NET2, and NET3
(
FIGURE 2-16). These connectors are RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet.
FIGURE 2-16 Service Processor Ethernet Network Ports – Rear Panel
1. Connect a Category 5 cable from your network switch or hub to Ethernet Port 0
(NET0) on the rear of the chassis.
NET0 is the farthest left port in the 4-port network cluster in
FIGURE 2-16.
2. Connect Category 5 cables from your network switch or hub to the remaining
Ethernet ports (NET1, NET2, NET3), as needed.
To Connect the AC Power Cable to the Server
Powering on the system for the first time requires special preparation and
procedures. For example, if you have not prepared a display before connecting the
AC power cable, system messages might be lost.
Caution Finish the hardware procedures in this chapter, but do not attach the AC
power cable yet.
