To configure the ILOM on a Sun Fire x4200, connect the serial management port to a console server, to your laptop via a cross-over cable, or a number of other ways. Once you have established a connection to the mgmt port, login to the service processor.
You will be brought to a login prompt like the example below.
The default username and password combination is username root and password changeme. Once you login to the SP, type the following commands:
cd /SP/network set pendingipaddress=10.10.1.100 set pendingipnetmask=255.255.255.0 set pendingipgateway=10.10.1.1 set commitpending=true After the commitpending command returns, you should now have a prompt back. To test your connectivity, ssh to10.10.1.100. If you can successfully connect, then you are all set. You can also open a web browser and navigate to that IP address.
