4 Setting Up the Remote Connection

This chapter describes how to cable and configure the remote communications
link to HP TopTools Remote Control card (LAN or modem). Once
communications have been established, you may control your HP NetServer using
the HP TopTools Remote Control web interface.

NOTE

If you have not provided for an independent communications
link to the card (either via a dedicated LAN line or dial-up
modem line), you will be unable to communicate with the HP
TopTools Remote Control card.

Your options for setting up the server for remote connection include one, or both
of the following:

A connection through the local area network (LAN) via a dedicated line
connected to the HP TopTools Remote Control card’s LAN port

A connection through an external modem connected to the HP TopTools
Remote Control card’s RS-232 (serial) port
