Supporting information for setting up consoles

Use this information if you need to access the Advanced System Management Interface by using a web
browser if you need to set IP addresses on your notebook, or if you need to troubleshoot a connection.

Accessing the ASMI by using a web browser

If your system is not managed by a Hardware Management Console (HMC), you can connect a PC or
notebook to the server to access the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI). You need to
configure the Web browser address on the PC or notebook to match the manufacturing default address
on the server.
To set up the Web browser for direct or remote access to the ASMI, complete the following steps:
1. If the server is not powered on, perform the following steps:
a. Connect your power cord or cords to the server.
b. Plug the power cord or cords into the power source.
c. Wait for the control panel to display 01. A series of progress codes are shown before 01 appears.
Notes:
v The system is powered on if the light on the control panel is green.
