Configure a Dedicated Local Management Connection to Oracle ILOM

Before You Begin:

• A local serial management connection to Oracle ILOM requires attaching a physical serial console device (text terminal, workstation, laptop, or a terminal emulator program) to the SER MGT port on the server or CMM.

  For further information about the physical serial management port located on an Oracle Server, see the Oracle documentation provided for your server.

To configure a dedicated local management connection to Oracle ILOM, follow these steps:

1. Attach a serial cable between the serial console device and the serial management (SER MGT) port on the server or CMM.
2. Set the console device communication properties to these values: 9600 baud, 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit.

   ---

   Note - If the transmit and receive signals are reversed (crossed over) for DTE to DTE communications, a null modem configuration is required. Use the adapter cable that is supplied with your system to achieve a null modem configuration.

   ---

3. To create a connection between the console device and the Oracle ILOM SP or CMM, press Enter.
