5.2 Remote Communication Adapter
A Remote Communication Adapter (RCA) is needed to connect the
LAN Console to the RM and PRIMEPOWER (MR) servers so that it can monitor
and operate these systems. The existing V.24-based serial console interfacing
concept for the RM/PRIMEPOWER (MR) has been retained. The LAN Console
is based on SPARC/Solaris 8 and is connected to the LAN via TCP/IP (see
figure "LAN Console architecture" on page 26). The RCA is available in a
version with 8 ports (RCA4-8) and a version with 16 ports (RCA4). The RCA can
be operated in standalone mode and is also available as a rack mount module.
One or two devices can be installed side by side in the rack in one height unit
using an optional rack installation kit.
