Log In to Oracle ILOM CLI Using a Local Serial Connection

This procedure provides instructions for accessing to Oracle ILOM locally using a serial connection, and it requires that you log in to Oracle ILOM using an account with administrator privileges.

Before You Begin

You must have already connected a serial cable from a terminal (or terminal emulation client) to the SER MGT port on the back of the server. For more information, see Cable the Server.

  1. At the terminal (or terminal emulation client), ensure that the following serial communication settings are configured:
    • 8N1: eight data bits, no parity, one stop bit
    • 9600 baud
    • Disable hardware flow control (CTS/RTS)
  2. At the terminal keyboard, press Enter to establish the serial console connection to Oracle ILOM.

    A login prompt to Oracle ILOM appears.

  3. Log in to the Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI) using an account with administrator privileges.

    Note -  The default Oracle ILOM Administrator account username is root and its password is changeme. If this account has been changed, contact your system administrator.

    Oracle ILOM displays a default command prompt, indicating that you have successfully logged in.
