From the Reflection 1 Main screen, pull down the Connection menu and select Connection Setup. Step 2. Select Serial Port. Step 3. Select Com1. Step 4. Check the settings and change, if required. Go to More Settings to set Xon/Xoff. Click OK to close the More Settings window. Step 5. Click OK to close the Connection Setup window. Step 6. Pull down the Setup menu and select Terminal (under the Emulation tab). Step 7. Select a supported terminal type. The preferred type is VT100. Step 8. Click Apply.

Network Access to the Management Processor By connecting the management processor LAN port to an active network, another host on the same subnet can set the management processor IP address via the ping command. After the IP address has been set, a telnet session can be established to configure additional parameters. To configure the management processor LAN IP address, perform the following steps: Step 1. Determine the MAC address of the management processor LAN interface by viewing the label located at the rear of the server. Step 2. Connect a LAN cable on your local subnet to the 10/100 LAN port of the management processor (located above the LVD/SE SCSI port). Step 3. Add an ARP table entry to another host located on your local subnet. This ARP table entry will map the MAC address of the Core I/O LAN interface to the IP address chosen for that interface.

During installation, communicating with the management processor enables such tasks as:
Verifying that the components are present and installed correctly
Setting the LAN IP addresses
Setting Terminal Parameters
After powering on the terminal, ensure the communications settings are as follows:
8/none (parity)
9600 baud
None (Receive)
None (Transmit)
If the terminal is a PC using Reflection 1, check or change these communications settings using the following procedure:
Step 1.
From the Reflection 1 Main screen, pull down the Connection menu and select
Connection Setup
.
Step 2.
Select
Serial Port
.
Step 3.
Select
Com1
.
Step 4.
Check the settings and change, if required.
Go to
More Settings
to set Xon/Xoff. Click OK to close the More Settings window.
Step 5.
Click OK to close the Connection Setup window.
Step 6.
Pull down the
Setup
menu and select
Terminal
(under the Emulation tab).
Step 7.
Select a supported terminal type.
The preferred type is
VT100
.
Step 8.
Click
Apply
.
This option is not highlighted if the terminal type you want is already selected.
Step 9.
Click OK.
Network Access to the Management Processor
By connecting the management processor LAN port to an active network, another host on the same subnet
can set the management processor IP address via the
ping
command. After the IP address has been set, a
telnet session can be established to configure additional parameters.
To configure the management processor LAN IP address, perform the following steps:
Step 1.
Determine the MAC address of the management processor LAN interface by viewing the label
located at the rear of the server.
Step 2.
Connect a LAN cable on your local subnet to the 10/100 LAN port of the management processor
(located above the LVD/SE SCSI port).
Step 3.
Add an ARP table entry to another host located on your local subnet. This ARP table entry will map
the MAC address of the Core I/O LAN interface to the IP address chosen for that interface.
