Direct LAN Connection
Click the IP address link to bypass the ASM interconnect connection
and to connect to a remote system directly through your Ethernet
network. This connection offers faster access to a remote ASM.
To directly log in to a remote system displayed in the table, click the IP
address link corresponding to the remote system that you want to
access. Then, follow the standard login procedure to gain access to that
remote system.
Note: In certain cases, no IP address link for a direct LAN connection will be
available, for one of the following reasons:
no LAN support
The system-management processor or adapter of the remote
system does not have access to a LAN port.
function not supported
The system-management processor or adapter of the remote
system does not have the ability to report its IP address through
the ASM interconnect network.
no LAN connection
The system-management processor or adapter of the remote
system has one of the following conditions:
v It has not been manually configured with an IP address
v It failed to receive a dynamic IP address assignment from a
DHCP server
v It has a faulty physical LAN connection
4. Click the login link that corresponds to the processor or adapter that you want
to access under the ASM Interconnect Connection column heading.
Note: It might take up to 45 seconds for newly attached servers to be reflected
in the table of available remote servers, and up to 2 minutes for servers
to be removed from the table when detached from the ASM interconnect
network.
The Enter Network Password window opens.
5. Type your user name and password and click OK. The System Health Summary
page opens. The adapter or processor name appears in orange above the
navigation pane.
Note: Depending on the system-management processor or adapter that is on
the remote server, some options might not be available.
6. Click Log Off Remote ASM to log off of the remote server.
