Sorry I'm at MP:CM> menue

type 'er' and it should give you two options. I think the correct option is 'g'

It will then ask if you want to modify the configuration. you must specify 'y' for yes.

Hy,
First of all, in order to access the Management Processor for the initial installation, the M cable must first
be connected to the DB25 connector located on the Primary MP/SCSI board. The Primary
MP/SCSI board is located in the lower MP/SCSI board slot.

1. Connect the server to AC power.
2. Check the bulk power supply LED for each BPS.
3. Login to the MP:
3.1. Enter Admin at the login prompt. This term is case sensitive.
3.2 Enter Admin at the password prompt. This term is case sensitive.

Then,
1. At the MP Main Menu prompt (MP>), enter cm. From the MP Command Menu prompt (MP:CM>), enter
lc (for LAN configuration).
2. At the prompt, Do you want to modify the configuration for the customer LAN?, enter y.
The current IP address is shown; then the following prompt appears: Do you want to modify it? (Y/[N])
3. Enter y.
4. Enter the new IP address.
The customer shall provide this address for network interface 0.
5. Confirm the new address.
6. Enter the MP Network name.
This is the host name for the customer LAN. The name can be as many as 64 characters, and include
alpha numerics, - (dash), _ (under bar),. (period), or a space. It is recommended that the name be a
derivative of the complex name. For example, Acme.com_MP.
7. Enter the LAN parameters for Subnet mask and Gateway address.
This information shall come from the customer.
8. Once step 7 is completed, the system will indicate the parameters have been updated and return to the
MP Command Menu prompt (MP:CM>)
9. To check the LAN parameters and status, enter the ls command at the MP Command Menu prompt
(MP:CM>).
Please, ATTENTION:
Remote SP via GPM On Green Dial-in (remote) console enabled
Off Dial-in (remote) console is disabled, or SP not
installed, or SP installed and not active

If there is a cell board, please verify the following procedure.
