Cable Connections External Core I/O Connections NOTE Adding an entry to the ARP table is typically done using the ARP command with the appropriate option. For example, arp -s is used with Windows. Consult your operating system documentation for more information. Step 4. Use the ping command from the host that has the new ARP table entry. The destination address is the IP address that is mapped to the MAC address of the management processor. The management processor LAN port should now be configured with the appropriate IP address. Step 5. Use the telnet command to connect to the management processor from a host on the local subnet. Interacting with the Management Processor To interact with the management processor, perform the following steps: NOTE On initial system installation no user account is set. To access the management processor use the return key at both the login and password prompts. It is recommended that the SO command be used (enter SO at the MP> prompt) during the initial management processor login session to configure management processor security and access control. Step 1. Log in using your management processor user account name and password. NOTE If the management processor is in console mode, use CTRL+B to access the management processor prompt. Step 2. Use the management processor menus and commands as needed. A list of available commands can be displayed by using the management processor help function (enter HE followed by LI at the MP> prompt). Log out using the EX command (enter EX at the MP> prompt) when done. Configuring Management Processor LAN Information LAN information includes the management processor network name, the management processor IP address, the management processor subnet mask, the management processor gateway address, and the web console port number. To set the management processor LAN IP address: Step 1. At the management processor menu prompt (MP>), enter LC (for LAN configuration) and press the Return/Enter key. The screen displays the default values and asks if you want to modify them. It is good practice to write down the information, as it may be required for future troubleshooting.

the IP address that is mapped to the MAC address of the management processor. The management
processor LAN port should now be configured with the appropriate IP address.
Step 5.
