One System Console Managing One System (Setup Configuration)
The one system console on the LAN must be configured as the primary system console. This
configuration can be called the setup configuration and is used during initial setup and installation
of the system console and the server.
The setup configuration is an example of a secure, stand-alone network. A LAN cable connects
the primary system console to the maintenance switch, and additional LAN cables connect the
VIO enclosures. The maintenance switch or an optional second maintenance switch allows you
to later add a backup system console and additional system consoles.
