Remote Connection Through an External Modem Using a Direct Serial Connection Instead of setting up modem communications, you can use a null modem cable to connect the server directly to a terminal through each computer's Management Port. You can use this type of connection when you want to communicate with the server through the Integrated RA at the same site as the server.

Figure 3-1. Remote Connection Through an External Modem
Using a Direct Serial Connection
Instead of setting up modem communications, you can use a null modem cable to
connect the server directly to a terminal through each computer's Management
Port. You can use this type of connection when you want to communicate with the
server through the Integrated RA at the same site as the server. The following
figure illustrates a direct connection between an Integrated RA installed in a server
and a stand-alone terminal.
