With the out-of-band serial port connection, you can use a Solaris tip session or a

Microsoft Windows terminal emulation program to access the firmware application.

For details, see “Setting Up the Serial Port Connection” on page E-1.

With the out-of-band Ethernet port connection, you can use the telnet command to

access the firmware application. For details, see “Setting Up Out-of-Band

Management Over Ethernet” on page 4-28.

You can also configure an array over the Ethernet connection with the SANscape CLI

and the SANscape software.

Caution – If you assign an IP address to an array to manage it out-of-band, for

security reasons consider using an IP address on a private network rather than a

publicly routable network.
