Installing an IP4700 2 Management Console If you are using a directly connected console to manage your IP4700 file server, do the following: 1. Connect the RS-232 cable from your PC serial port to the upper serial port (COM1) of SP A. See Figure 2-10. 2. Use a terminal emulator (for example, Hyperterminal) in VT100 mode, and maintain the configuration settings specified in the IP4700 Quick Start Guide (069701170). These settings are usually 9600 baud, 8 bits no parity, 1 stop bit. 3. Refer to the previous section to: • Connect network lines for the first subnet to Ethernet port 1 on each storage processor (SP A and SP B). • Connect the file server to up to four additional subnets.
