Re: recover Lanconsole (GSP) IP

This was only possible with the first generation of GSP's in combination with a very early firmware.

with later revisions of hard- and firmware this is no longer possible.

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: recover Lanconsole (GSP) IP

As torsten says it only worked with early firmwares if you have a gsp version: B.XX.XX
os superior it won't work:


Here is the old way of connecting throw the server:



Code: Select all
# umask 077
# mknod /dev/tty1p0 c 1 0x010000
# vi /usr/lib/uucp/Systems



Append the next line; note that it has been broken up into two lines for readability?join them together for a single line in Systems:

Code: Select all
port Any;5 gspiport,f 9600 - "" \r\d\r\d\r ogin:-BREAK-ogin: uucp asswrd: uucp-BREAK-ogin: uucp asswrd: uucp



Code: Select all
# vi /usr/lib/uucp/Devices



Append this to the bottom of the file:

Code: Select all
port tty1p0 - 9600 direct



Code: Select all
# cu -l /dev/tty1p0



At that point, you are now communicating with the Guardian Service Processor (GSP).
Leave the connection with "~." .
Windows?, no thanks

It is impossible. We tried to create manually the driver but it is still impossible to connect to the device.

Thank u for your fast answers
