IP Configuration Task Checklist
TABLE 4-1 summarizes an ordered list of tasks that you must perform to initially
configure an IP address for the server module SP.
TABLE 4-1 IP Address Configuration Tasks
Step Requirement Description
1 Install the server
module into the
chassis.
The server module must be properly installed in the chassis
system. For more information, see Chapter 1 and Chapter 3 of
this guide.
2 Establish a
console
connection to
ILOM.
You can establish a connection with the ILOM server module
SP through a local or remote console.
• Local serial console. Using a dongle cable you can connect a
serial console to the UCP port on the front panel of the server
module. For instructions for attaching local devices to the
server module, see “Attach Devices to Server Using the 3-
Cable Dongle” on page 42.
Alternatively, you can connect a serial console to the serial
port on the rear panel of the CMM. For more information
about attaching cables or devices to a CMM, see the system
chassis documentation.
• Remote console. Attach a local area Ethernet network cable
to the network management port (RJ-45 NET MGT 0
) on the
CMM. The chassis Ethernet ports provide the most robust
method of connecting to ILOM. This connection supports
both the command-line interface and the web interface. For
more information about how to attach the CMM
management network cable, see system chassis
documentation.
3 Obtain an
Administrator
user account.
To configure an IP address in ILOM, you must log in to ILOM
with an Administrator account.
A preconfigured Administrator account is shipped on each
server module SP. The preconfigured Administrator account
name is root and its password is changme. Since this
preconfigured account cannot be deleted, it is highly
recommended that you change the password after initial setup.
This account offers built-in administrative privileges (read and
write access) to all service processor features and commands.
For more information about ILOMs user accounts, see the Sun
Integrated Lights Out Manager 2.0 User’s Guide or the Integrated
Lights Out Manager 3.0 Documentation Collection.
