    Safety Requirements The following safety precautions must be observed when installing or operating the CP6930-1. Kontron assumes no respon- sibility for any damage resulting from failure to comply with these requirements. Warning Due care should be exercised when handling the board due to the fact that the heat sink can get very hot.

    Chapter 4. Quick Start This section gives instructions for (initially) accessing the CLI (Command Line Interface) of the CP6930-1 using either in- band access via the ethernet fabric or the out-of-band management interfaces (serial port or Fast Ethernet) accessible from the front plate serial connector or via an appropriate RIO module.

  • Page 23: Out-Of-Band Cli Access

    Fast Ethernet Serviceport The Gigabit Ethernet serviceport on the CP6930-1 front plate has no IP address set by default, it is necessary to assign an IP address statically or enable dhcp on the serviceport. Because the required configuration steps are done in the CLI, an initial access using the serial port is required.

  • Page 24: In-Band Cli Access

    In-Band CLI Access The GbE switch network port (in-band management access) on the CP6930-1 has no IP address set by default, it is necessary to assign an IP address either statically or by using DHCP to the network port. Because the required configuration steps are done in the CLI, an initial access using the serial port is required.
  • Page 25 To access the CLI via Fast Ethernet networkport, open a telnet connection to the configured IP address, port 23. It might make sense to separate the management network from the data path by setting appropriate VLANs For additional information on the system configuration, refer to the CP6930-1 CLI Reference Manual. www.kontron.com...

    3.3.1 IPMB Interface The CP6930-1 IPMI firmware implements the two independent IPMB-0 and IPMB-1 interfaces. The IPMB-0 can be switched to a redundant mode by aggregating the physical IPMB-0 and IPMB-1 lines together to one sin- gle logical IPMB-0. In redundant mode, command retries are send over the second physical line if the command timed out using the first line.

    6.1.1 Baseboard The CP6930-1 baseboard itself has been designed for optimal power input and distribution. Still it is necessary to observe certain criteria essential for application stability and reliability. The board is supplied by the 3.3V and the 5.0V from the backplane. All supply voltages from the backplane are enabled with a predefined ramp-up time.

    As the design of the CP6930-1 has been optimized for minimal power consumption, the power supply unit shall be stable even without minimum load.

    For example, if the +5V begins to decrease, +3.3V must decrease accordingly. This is required in order to pre- clude cross currents within the CP6930-1. Failure to comply with above may result in damage to the board or improper system operation.

    Max. Traffic 57.6 Start-up Currents The start-up currents of the CP6930-1 during the first 2-3 seconds after power has been applied (power-on or hot-swap insertion) are less than the maximum currents given in Table 6-3 for each of the variants. www.kontron.com...
