Cabling the Ethernet LAN port and management port: This section describes how to cable the Remote Supervisor Adapter. You can manage the server remotely through the Remote Supervisor Adapter using one of the user interfaces and one of the connection methods that are described in Table 2. Select the interface method you want to use to perform remote management; then, perform the indicated cabling procedure. If you plan to set up an ASM interconnect network, before you begin cabling the server, see "Using the ASM interconnect network" on page 63 for instructions about cabling the ASM interconnect port and setting up the network. You might want to review the information in "ASM interconnect network configuration examples" on page 68 before you connect the cables. Then, return to these instructions to start the cabling procedures. Table 2.

Attention: To avoid damage to the Ethernet connector on the Remote Supervisor Adapter, do not connect the ASM Interconnect module to the Ethernet port. 1. Connect one end of a Category 3 or Category 5 Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the Remote Supervisor Adapter. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the network. 54 xSeries 445 Type 8870: User's Guide

This
section
describes
how
to
cable
the
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter.
You
can
manage
the
server
remotely
through
the
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
using
one
of
the
user
interfaces
and
one
of
the
connection
methods
that
are
described
in
Table
2.
Select
the
interface
method
you
want
to
use
to
perform
remote
management;
then,
perform
the
indicated
cabling
procedure.
If
you
plan
to
set
up
an
ASM
interconnect
network,
before
you
begin
cabling
the
server,
see
“Using
the
ASM
interconnect
network”
on
page
63
for
instructions
about
cabling
the
ASM
interconnect
port
and
setting
up
the
network.
You
might
want
to
review
the
information
in
“ASM
interconnect
network
configuration
examples”
on
page
68
before
you
connect
the
cables.
Then,
return
to
these
instructions
to
start
the
cabling
procedures.
