Cabling
Using the local I/O cable
The local I/O cable enables the user to perform server blade administration, configuration, and
diagnostic procedures in two ways:
•
Connecting locally to the server blade iLO 2 interface
•
Connecting video and USB devices directly to the server blade
Local administration using iLO 2
To connect locally to iLO 2 with the local I/O cable, you must have the following:
•
A client device with a 10/100 Ethernet RJ-45 connector
•
A network cable with RJ-45 connectors
To connect to iLO 2:
CAUTION:
blades have the same IP address through the I/O port. Multiples on a hub make the server
blades indistinguishable on the network.
Use the RJ-45 network cable to connect the local client device to the local I/O cable.
