Finding the IO Board and SP MAC Addresses
The IO board and SP MAC addresses are printed on their respective PC boards, but
these are also printed on the system controller handle.
■
The SP MAC address is on the left side of the handle. Look for the label that says
“SP MAC ID”.
■
The IO board MAC address is on the right side of the handle. Look for the label
that says “Net 0 MAC ID.”
Note –
If the cable management arm (CMA) is in place, it can obscure these
addresses. To view the MAC address labels when the CMA is in place, use a stylus
to press the recessed button to release the system controller handle, and swivel it
down partway until the addresses are visible. Return it to the closed position when
you are done.
