Console Concentrator Configuration
The configuration of the console concentrator is undertaken by Customer Services. This
configuration procedure is provided as a reference only.
Initial Conditions
The configuration of the console concentrator (CS/2600) is done through the ASCII console
(BQ306). The ASCII console must be connected to the J0 port of the CS/2600 server, to
setup the console baud rate to 9600.
CS/2600 configuration can also be done through the Cluster PowerConsole (workstation),
provided that it is connected to the J0 port instead of the ASCII console.
Provide a floppy diskette to copy the original 3Com diskette to it. This 3”1/2 floppy diskette
must be double-faced and double density. Clearly identify this diskette.
Then, define a Console Telnet addressing scheme in conjunction with a
dedicated–administration network addressing diagram and write it down on the label on the
diskette.
Addressing Schema Example
For a configuration of n nodes, where the nodes (S1) are connected to the console
concentrator using the ports J1 to Jn,
assign the telnet IP address
1.0.0.11 to the port J1
1.0.0.12 to the port J2
.......
1.0.0.1n to the port Jn
Regarding the elements of the dedicated–administration network, give the IP address,
1.0.0.1 to the node #1 (integrated ethernet adapter)
1.0.0.2 to the node #2
........
1.0.0.n to the node #n
1.0.0.10 to the Console Concentrator itself
1.0.0.20 to the Powerconsole (or Cluster Console)
