Setup Procedure
Connecting the Server to the Enterprise LAN
At the Customer’s request, the system can be connected to the Enterprise LAN for remote
operation of the Bull NovaScale Server.
According to the Customer’s network requirements, the server offers two LAN connection
options:
– via the IOR (IOB #0) for a 10/100 Mb/s network,
– via an optional Gigabit Ethernet PCI adapter (IOB #0) for a 1 Gb/s network.
1. Access IOB #0 from the front of the cabinet.
2. Carefully connect the network cable equipped with an RJ45 connector to the LAN port on
the IOR or Gigabit Ethernet PCI adapter.
3. Take care to correctly route the network cable through the cable inlet at the base of the
cabinet.
4. The network will be detected automatically.
Important:
An extra cable length of 1.5 meters is required for maintenance. This extra cable
length must be absorbed in the plenum space under the cabinet.
