9.1 Using a Terminal
If the system does not have a console, you can log in remotely through the
network or attach a terminal directly to the system.
To attach a terminal to the system:
1. Halt the system and turn off power.
2. Connect the terminal to serial port A on the clock board.
The clock board is located at the back of system, above the card cage.
Figure 9-1 shows the rear of an Enterprise 6000/5000 cabinet server. The
same clock board is used in the 8-slot Enterprise 4000 standalone server.
3. Power on the terminal.
4. Set up the terminal.
Refer to the OpenBoot Command Reference for instructions for using the set-
defaults and printenv commands.
The settings will vary with the terminal type, but these settings are often
used:
• 9600 bps
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• Even parity
• Full duplex
