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: 1. Determine the MAC address of the management processor LAN interface by viewing the label located at the rear of the server. NOTE If this label is missing, another label can be found at the front of the MP/SCSI card. You might need to remove the MP/SCSI board to view this label. For instructions on removing/replacing the MP/SCSI board, refer to the hp Integrity rx5670 Operation and Maintenance Guide. 2. Connect a LAN cable on your local subnet to the LAN port found on the MP/SCSI board. 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 MP/SCSI LAN interface to the IP address chosen for that interface. 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. 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. 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, the MP has two default user accounts. They are: 1. Administrator level user; login = Admin, password = Admin (both are case sensitive) 2. Operator level user; login = Oper, password = Oper (both are case sensitive). For security reasons, it is recommended that the UC command be used during the initial logon session (enter CM at the MP prompt, and enter UC at the MP:CM> prompt) to modify default passwords or to delete and create user accounts. 62 Chapter 4

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:
1. Determine the MAC address of the management processor LAN interface by viewing the label located at
the rear of the server.
NOTE
If this label is missing, another label can be found at the front of the MP/SCSI card. You might
need to remove the MP/SCSI board to view this label.
For instructions on removing/replacing the MP/SCSI board, refer to the
hp Integrity rx5670
Operation and Maintenance Guide
.
2. Connect a LAN cable on your local subnet to the LAN port found on the MP/SCSI board.
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 MP/SCSI LAN interface to the IP address chosen for that interface.
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.
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.
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, the MP has two default user accounts. They are:
1. Administrator level user; login = Admin, password = Admin (both are case sensitive)
2. Operator level user; login = Oper, password = Oper (both are case sensitive).
For security reasons, it is recommended that the UC command be used during the initial logon
session (enter CM at the MP prompt, and enter UC at the MP:CM> prompt) to modify default
passwords or to delete and create user accounts.
