HP Integrity rx8620 Server User Service Guide

This procedure (Command menu, LC command) configures the MP customer LAN network
settings from the MP Command menu.
1. Connect to the server complex MP and enter CM to access the Command menu.
Use telnet to connect to the MP, if possible.
If an MP is at its default configuration (including default network settings), connect to it
using either of these methods:
• Establish a direct serial cable connection through the MP local RS-232 port.
• Access a PC or workstation on the same subnet as the MP, modify its network routing
tables to include the default customer LAN IP address, and telnet to the MP. The
procedure to modify networking and connect is as follows:
a. Access a PC or workstation on the MP subnet.
b. Modify the network routing tables for the PC or workstation by using the
route add 192.168.1.1 ClientName
command, where
ClientName Is the network name of the PC or workstation.
From a PC command prompt:
route add 192.168.1.1 ClientName
On an HP-UX workstation log in as root and use this command:
/usr/sbin/route add 192.168.1.1 ClientName
After reconfiguring the MP networking, remove these network routing table changes
with the route delete command.
c. Enter this command to confirm the new network connection to the MP:
ping 198.168.1.1 -n 2
d. Use the
telnet 192.168.1.1
command from the PC or workstation to connect to the MP.
2. From the MP Command menu, enter LS to list the current network settings, and, if needed,
use the LC command to reconfigure the network settings for the MP.
The LC command enables modifications to the customer LAN and/or the private LAN
configuration.
Cancel all changes to the MP LAN configuration at any time by replying Q to any of the LC
command prompts.
3. Ensure that the MP networking configuration is correct.
