Table 2. Cabling tasks to enable remote access to the Remote Supervisor Adapter (continued) User interface to Remote Connection to Remote Supervisor Adapter Supervisor Adapter For the cabling procedure, see: Text-based user interface using a modem or a null modem Management (COM) port "Cabling the management (COM) port" on page 48 ASM Web interface using point-to-point protocol (PPP) Text-based user interface using the Telnet protocol over PPP Cabling the Ethernet LAN port: Complete the following steps to attach the Ethernet cables. Attention: To avoid damage to the Ethernet connector on the Remote Supervisor Adapter, do not connect the ASM Interconnect module to the Ethernet port. 1. Connect one end of a Category 3 or Category 5 Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the Remote Supervisor Adapter. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the network. 2. Check the Ethernet LEDs to ensure that the network connection is working. The following illustration shows the location of the LEDs. External power Error LED ASM interconnect connector (amber) port Ethernet activity LED (green) Ethernet link LED (green) Power LED (green) Management port 10/100 Ethernet port Figure 22. Remote Supervisor Adapter connectors v External power connector (not supported) - This connector is not supported on this server. v Error LED - This amber LED is lit when a system management error has occurred. v ASM interconnect port - Signal cables for managing expansion module resources are connected to this port. v Ethernet activity LED: When the LED is green there is activity on the Ethernet LAN. v Ethernet link LED: When the LED is green the link is active. v 10/100 Ethernet port - Ethernet Signal cables are connected to the Ethernet port. v Management port - Connect a serial cable to this port to enable system management through a modem, or connect a null modem cable to enable system management through a workstation or laptop computer.
