2. Attach the opposite end of the serial cable to the serial management port on the
server.
3. Connect the alphanumeric terminal’s power cord to an AC outlet.

terminal. Continue with your installation or diagnostic procedure, as needed. When
you are finished, type the alphanumeric terminal’s escape sequence.
Accessing the System Console Through a Local

configure it to access the system console. You
