Some application programs use only certain ports, and some modems are designed for use only at certain communication port addresses. You might need to use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to change communication port address assignments to resolve conflicts. Management port C: The server has a dedicated system-management I/O port. This port can be used to attach a modem that is dedicated to communication with the Netfinity Advanced System Management Processor. The connector on the back of the server and the pin-number assignments are the same as for the serial ports. Parallel port: The parallel port usually is used to communicate with printers, and transfers data one byte at a time. The parallel port has a 25-pin, female D-shell connector on the back of the server. It support three standard IEEE 1284 modes of operation: Standard Parallel Port (SPP), Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP), and Extended Capability Port (ECP). (See "Input/output connectors and expansion slots" on page 91 for the location of the connector.) 13 1 25 14 The following table shows the pin-number assignments for the parallel-port connector.
