Configuring Static Ip Addressing; Connecting A Terminal To The Serial Port - Sun Oracle Sun Storage 2500-M2 Arrays Hardware Installation Manual

Using Sun Storage Common Array Manager (see the Sun Storage Common Array
■
Manager Installation and Setup Guide).

Configuring Static IP Addressing

There are two methods of assigning static IP addresses to the Ethernet ports of a
controller:
The serial port interface (see
■
Addresses" on page
Sun Storage Common Array Manager (see the Sun Storage Common Array Manager
■
Installation and Setup Guide).
Using the Serial Port Interface to Assign IP Addresses
You can use the serial port interface on a controller to set the IP address for the
Ethernet port on the controller.
To use the serial port interface to configure IP addressing for the Ethernet port of
each controller, you must complete the tasks described in the following sections:
"Connecting a Terminal to the Serial Port" on page 63
■
"Setting Up the Terminal Emulation Program" on page 64
■
"Establishing a Connection With the Serial Port" on page 64
■
"Configuring the IP Addresses" on page

Connecting a Terminal to the Serial Port

You will establish a serial connection to each controller, Controller A and Controller
B. One mini-DIN to RJ45 serial port cables are supplied with each controller tray.
1. Connect the 6-pin mini-DIN connector of the serial cable to the serial port on
the controller.
2. Connect the RJ-45 connector of the serial cable to the serial port on the terminal.
It may be necessary to use the RJ45-DB9 adapter between the serial cable RJ-45
connector and the serial port of the terminal.
3. For PC and laptop serial connections, you will also need to use a null modem.
Connect the RJ45-DB9 null modem adapter between the serial cable RJ-45
connector and the PC serial port.
