If you want to use the server’s Lights Out Management (LOM) facilities, use the port

Note – The Sun Fire V100 server is supplied with shielded serial cables. Use only
these cables when making serial connections to the server.
3. Connect the server to a maximum of two Ethernet hubs.
You need connect to an Ethernet hub only if you intend to use the server in a
network.

If required.
5. If you intend to configure the server directly from a dumb terminal or a Sun
workstation, connect the serial cable into the DB-25 serial adapter that was
supplied with the server, and connect the adapter to the serial connector on the
terminal or on the Sun workstation.
Refer to Chapter 4 for information about powering on the system.
Note – The DB-25 serial adapter may not work with all terminals. If you have
problems, refer to your terminal manual to check its compatibility with the Sun
adapter.
Caution – AC-powered Sun products are designed to work with single-phase
power systems that have a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, do not connect Sun products to any other type of power system. Contact your
facilities manager or a qualified electrician if you are not sure what type of power is
supplied to your building.
Caution – Your AC-powered Sun product is packaged with a grounding type
(three-wire) power cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock, always connect the cord
to a grounded outlet.
