10. Press F10 to exit from smitty and return to the server's command line.
This concludes the system port tty configuration on an AIX Server.
Configuring the 7036-P16 as a tty device on a Linux host server
Assumptions:
v The target 7036-P16 and the host server are configured on an Ethernet network.
v The target 7036-P16 and the host server are attached to an Ethernet network.
v The Digi RealPort software is installed on the server.
Gather the following information:
v IP Address of the target 7036-P16: [7036-P16 IP Address]
v IP Address of the host server: [Host Server IP Address]
v Root password of target 7036-P16
Procedure:
1. Ensure that the 7036-P16 and the server are on the network. Ping the 7036-P16 by typing the
following command: ping -c 1 [IP Address of target 7036-P16]
Note: If the 7036-P16 responds to the ping, then it is on the network and the user may proceed to the
next step. If the 7036-P16 does not respond to the ping, then the 7036-P16 is not on the network and
the user must perform the network configuration procedure, see "Configuring the 7036-P16 into the
network."
2. Ensure that the Digi RealPort software is installed on the server. Type the following command: rpm
-qa | grep dgr
The response from the command is: dgr-1.9.6
Note: If there is no response, then the Digi RealPort software is not installed and the user must
install the Digi RealPort Software, see the Linux Red Hat or the Linux SuSE installation procedure, see
"Configuring the 7036-P16 into the network."
3. Type the following command:
dgrp_cfg_node -v init [Device ID] [IP Address] [7036-P16 Port(s)]Where: [Device ID] is any two
characters that the user uses to identify the target 7036-P16. [IP Address] is the IP Address of the
target 7036-P16. [7036-P16 Port(s)] correspond to the port number(s) being configured.
This concludes the system port tty configuration on a Linux Host server.
Configuring the 7036-P16 into the network
You might need to configure the 7036-P16 device to work within the system network. Use the procedure
in this section to perform this task.
The following sections describe methods for configuring the 7036-P16 in a network: the Ethernet method,
the ping-ARP method, and the direct-terminal attach method.
Network configuration methods and considerations
The 7036-P16 is an Ethernet device and as such it must be configured onto the network like any other
Ethernet device. Various network configuration methods are available to the user.
