1. Create a VLAN on the switch. Use the parameters you assign there to join the VLAN from the server. Refer to your switch documentation for more information. 2. Double-click the Network icon in the Control Panel window. 3. On the Adapters tab, select the adapter you want to be on the VLAN and select Properties. 4. In IBMSet, select Join VLAN. Note that VLANs cannot be assigned to adapters that are already defined to have an adapter teaming option. 5. Enter the VLAN ID and VLAN name. The VLAN ID must match the VLAN ID of the switch. The ID range is from 1 to 1000. The VLAN name is for information only and does not need to match the name on the switch. 6. Select Join VLAN. Repeat steps 3 through 5 for each VLAN you want the server to join. The VLANs you add are listed on the Adapters tab. 7. Select Close and restart the computer. Ethernet port connector: The following table shows the pin-number assignments for the RJ-45 connector. These assignments apply to both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX devices. Table 15.

Management Port (Serial port A) This port uses a standard D-shell serial-port connector, labeled A on the rear of the server. You can attach a dedicated modem to the D-shell connector on the rear of the server to communicate with the integrated Advanced System Management Processor. For more information see "Serial port" on page 62. RS-485 ports The RS-485 ports on the rear of the server enable you to connect the Advanced System Management Processors of several rack-mounted servers so that they can communicate with each other in half-duplex mode. 70 Hardware Maintenance Manual: xSeries 330
