Enter a physical address for this Remote Supervisor Adapter II in the
Locally administered MAC address field. If a value is specified, the
locally administered address overrides the burned-in MAC address. The
locally administered address must be a hexadecimal value from
000000000000 through FFFFFFFFFFFF. This value must be in the form
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx where x is a number between 0 and 9. The Remote
Supervisor Adapter II does not support the use of a multicast
address.The first byte of a multicast address is an odd number (the least
significant bit is set to 1). Therefore, the first byte must be an even
number.

Configuring PPP access over a serial connection
Note: This feature is not available for the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine.
Use the point-to-point protocol (PPP) access method if you do not have Ethernet
access. You can use PPP through your serial port to enable access to the Remote
Supervisor Adapter II through a Telnet session or a Web browser.
Note: If you enable the PPP interface, the Remote Supervisor Adapter II cannot
use the serial port for serial remote access.
To configure PPP access over a serial port, complete the following steps:
1. Log in to the Remote Supervisor Adapter where you want to configure PPP
access over a serial port. For more information, see Chapter 2, “Opening and
using the Web interface,” on page 5.
2. In the navigation pane, click Network Interfaces. Scroll down to the PPP over
Serial Port 1 area.
Note: The values in the following illustration are examples. Your settings will be
different.
