Installation Overview
MSP IP addresses communicate with the master service processors (MSPs). NonStop 
operating system IP addresses communicate with the operating system for the 
specified processor. For more information about how these IP addresses are used, see 
the NonStop S-Series Planning and Configuration Guide.
To provide security and to make NonStop S-series equipment compatible with your 
existing LAN, change these IP addresses before exiting the OSM or TSM Low-Level 
Link. 
To change the system console, MSP, and operating system access IP addresses, use 
the OSM or TSM Low-Level Link. See the documentation appropriate to the software 
you are using:
