Initializing the ENCS 5400-W Device Locally
To perform an initial setup of the ENCS 5400-W device locally, follow these steps.
Step 1
Ensure that the device is powered on.
Step 2
Connect a keyboard and a monitor to the corresponding ports on the front panel of the device.
Step 3
When you see the prompt, you can do the following:
Press F2 to get into the setup (BIOS) to change some settings.
Or
Press F8 to configure the IP address of the CIMC.
Step 4
After you have performed the required configuration, save the setup and continue to boot the device.
Initializing the ENCS 5400-W Device Remotely
To perform an initial setup of the ENCS 5400-W device remotely, follow these steps.
Step 1
Plug in your terminal server to the Serial CIMC port. Refer to the front of the ENCS 5400-W chassis for
this port.
Step 2
Telnet into the console and perform the necessary configuration using corresponding commands.
You can also configure the IP address for the Ethernet CIMC port.
Consider the following guidelines about using the CIMC CLI command-line interface:
•
You can launch the CIMC CLI and manage the server over the network by SSH or Telnet. By default,
Telnet access is disabled.
•
A user of the CLI will be one of three roles: admin, user (can control, cannot configure), and
read-only.
•
The CLI is organized into a hierarchy of command modes; higher-level modes branch into
lower-level modes (such as bios mode branches into advanced, main, or server-management).
–
EXEC mode is the highest-level mode.
–
Use the scope command to move from higher-level modes to modes in the next lower level.
–
Use the exit command to move up one level in the mode hierarchy.
–
Use the top command to return to EXEC mode from any level.
