After the system console finishes its low-level system diagnostics, the SP initializes and runs a
suite of higher level diagnostics. When you access the SP using a device connected to the SER
MGT port, you see the output of the Oracle ILOM diagnostics.
By default, the SP configures the NET MGT port automatically, retrieving network
configuration settings using DHCP and allowing connections using SSH.
For a more detailed discussion on configuring the system console and connecting terminals,
refer to the administration guide for your server.
