if the preset duplex mode value needs to be altered or
0
.
I
The transfer rate of 10 Mbit/sec and the duplex mode of the
management blade must comply with the client LAN controller!
Automatic synchronization is not supported by the management
blade LAN controller.
Ê
Enter 0 in this menu and in the preceding menus to leave the management
blade console menu.
Ê
Close the HyperTerminal session.
Ê
Unplug the power cable from the blade server and plug it in again to reboot
the management blade.

This makes sure that the management blade keeps the master role
after reboot. A reboot without disconnecting the power cable would
cause a change of roles.
The management blade can now be accessed remotely via LAN. For infor-
mation on further configuration please refer to the manual “PRIMERGY
BX Blade Server Systems - RemoteView Management Blade (User Interface
Description)”. The configuration of the LAN switch blades is described in the
manual “PRIMERGY BX Blade Server Systems - LAN Switch Blade (User
Interface Description)”.
