Advanced System Management ports

Your server has three communication ports dedicated to the Netfinity Advanced
System Management Processor. One port uses a standard D-shell serial-port
connector, connector C. The other two ports, which are used for the RS-485
function, use a dual RJ-45 connector.
You can attach a dedicated modem to the D-shell system-management connector
on the rear of your server to communicate with the integrated Netfinity Advanced
System Management Processor.

where d and path are the drive and path where the driver is located, and x and
y are the PCI slot numbers where the redundant pair is located.
The slot number associated with the integrated Ethernet controller can vary
depending on the configuration of the server. To determine the slot number,
load the driver with no parameters. The driver will display the available slot
numbers. The slot number that is greater that 10000 will be the slot number of
integrated Ethernet controller. When the slot number of the integrated Ethernet
controller is determined, reload the driver with the appropriate parameters.

handled by the secondary Ethernet controller, the traffic does not
automatically switch back to the primary adapter when the primary adapter
comes back online. In this case, issue the command:
LOAD d:\path\PCNTNW SCAN
where d and path are the drive and path where the driver is located. This
command causes the device driver to locate the primary adapter and switch
the Ethernet traffic to it.
