Network Configuration for a Service Processor

This gives an overview of the network settings for service processor (MP or GSP) hardware.
These settings are used for connections to the service processor and are not used for HP-UX
networking.
Details on configuring service processor networking are given in the service guide for each server.
The service processor utility hardware on HP Superdome servers has two network connections:
the customer LAN and private LAN.
The service processor on other (non-Superdome) cell-based servers does not have a private LAN;
only a customer LAN connection is provided.
Features of service processor LANs are given in the following list.
Customer LAN for Service Processor
•
to the service processor menus, consoles, commands, and other features.
All cell-based servers have a customer LAN.
On HP Superdome servers, the customer LAN port is labeled "Customer LAN". On HP
rp8400 servers it is "GSP LAN". On HP rp7405/rp7410 servers it is the only LAN connection
on each board.
Private LAN for Service Processor (Superdome Only)

To list the current service processor network configuration, use the LS command. To configure
service processor network settings, use the LC command from the Command menu. For a
