USB Serial Adapter: laptop Console
Can anyone tell me what cable I need to purchase to connect my laptop to an rp3440 machine for console access.
I only have USB available on the latitude x300 (very small laptop).
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Jim

Re: USB Serial Adapter: laptop Console
An rp3440 has an GSP, and console that can be configured as a lan interface. Check this link for configuration options.

check Configuring the MP LAN Port IP Address section on page 82.

Re: USB Serial Adapter: laptop Console
Though I really just wanted to walk up to one of many HP-UX machines here and simply plug in my laptop and login to the console or GSP/MP.

Re: USB Serial Adapter: laptop Console
The USB ports are only for keyboards/mice. However as stated by others the management LAN port is a viable option. You can configure the port and plug an ethernet cable (not suse if you need a crossover cable)in between your laptop and the MP. - assuming you have some type of LAN connection on your PC

Re: USB Serial Adapter: laptop Console
It works.
I picked up a RS232 (9pin) serial cable at Radio Shack last night, installed the driver and HyperTerm├в ed into the Management Processor of an rp3440 this afternoon.
This is the solution for ├в out-of-the-box├в server configurations. Plus I can terminal into almost any device in the Data Center. Very Cool Stuff. . .
