Follow this procedure to configure network access to the Quadrics switch controller card:
NOTE: For more information about configuring the Quadrics switch controller card, see the
HP Cluster Platform Quadrics QsNet
II
Interconnect reference guide, which is available at the following
website:
http://www.docs.hp.com/en/highperfcomp.html
1. Ensure that an Ethernet cable from the monitoring line card's primary Ethernet port is
connected to an Ethernet port on the Root Administration Switch. This connection is described
in the HP XC Hardware Preparation Guide.
2. Connect to the switch controller using a VGA monitor and keyboard or a connection to the
serial port using a null modem cable and a terminal or terminal emulation program such
as HyperTerminal. Connecting to the switch controller displays the Quadrics Switch Control
main menu, which is similar to the following:
