Installing the System Connecting the MP to the Customer LAN Connecting the MP to the Customer LAN This section discusses how to connect, set up, and verify the Superdome MP to the customer LAN. LAN information includes the MP network name (host name), the MP IP address, the subnet mask, and gateway address. This information is provided by the customer. Connecting the MP to the Network NOTE Unlike earlier Superdome systems, which required the MP to be connected to the private LAN, the new system MP now connects to the customer's LAN through the appropriate hub, switch, router, or any other customer-provide LAN device. In some cases, the customer may want to connect the SMS to the MP on the private management LAN. This may be done, but the customer must be informed that they will not be able to access the SMS remotely and will have to use the SMS as a "local" device. Connect the MP to the customer's LAN: Step 1. Connect one end of the RJ-45 LAN cable to the LAN port on the MP. Figure 2-34MP LAN Connection Location MP-to-Customer LAN Connection Step 2. Connect the other end of the LAN cable to the customer-designated LAN port. Obtain the IP address for the MP from the customer. Connect dial-up modem cable between the MP modem and the customer's phone line connection. Chapter 2 57
