Cabling Using the local I/O cable The local I/O cable enables the user to perform server blade administration, configuration, and diagnostic procedures in two ways: • Connecting locally to the server blade iLO 2 interface • Connecting video and USB devices directly to the server blade Local administration using iLO 2 To connect locally to iLO 2 with the local I/O cable, you must have the following: • A client device with a 10/100 Ethernet RJ-45 connector • A network cable with RJ-45 connectors To connect to iLO 2: CAUTION: Do not connect the local I/O cable to a hub when connecting to iLO 2. All server blades have the same IP address through the I/O port. Multiples on a hub make the server blades indistinguishable on the network. 1. Use the RJ-45 network cable to connect the local client device to the local I/O cable. Cabling 62

Cabling
Using the local I/O cable
The local I/O cable enables the user to perform server blade administration, configuration, and
diagnostic procedures in two ways:
Connecting locally to the server blade iLO 2 interface
Connecting video and USB devices directly to the server blade
Local administration using iLO 2
To connect locally to iLO 2 with the local I/O cable, you must have the following:
A client device with a 10/100 Ethernet RJ-45 connector
A network cable with RJ-45 connectors
To connect to iLO 2:
CAUTION:
Do not connect the local I/O cable to a hub when connecting to iLO 2. All server
blades have the same IP address through the I/O port. Multiples on a hub make the server
blades indistinguishable on the network.
1.
Use the RJ-45 network cable to connect the local client device to the local I/O cable.
