You can install the OS and administer the server by attaching a local console directly to the server's service processor (SP) through the network management port (NET MGT). The server supports two types of local consoles:
A terminal or terminal emulator connected to the serial management port (SER MGT)
A VGA monitor, USB keyboard, and USB mouse connected directly to the video port (VGA) and any of the four exterior USB connectors
You can also install the OS and administer the server from a remote console by establishing a network connection to the server SP. There are two types of remote consoles:
Web-based client connection using the Oracle ILOM Remote System Console Plus application
Secure Shell (SSH) client connection to the network management port (NET MGT)
Use a Secure Shell (SSH) client to connect to the Oracle ILOM command line interface (CLI) to launch a text-based console session.
