Configuration Step:
This chapter describes how to establish management communications with the ATCA-S201
for purposes including initial configuration, administration and monitoring the storage
services. A typical ATCA deployment will consist of an ATCA chassis, ATCA carrier blades,
Advanced RTM and shelf management controllers (ShMC). Administrators may choose from
the following physical access ports to conduct management communications:
Full configuration capabilities:
- RS232 on Advanced Rear transition module (ARTM)
- Ethernet on Advanced Rear transition module (1 GbE on ARTM)
- Any zone 2 Ethernet connection (base or fabric)
In addition to DHCP, the ARTM Ethernet port offers special protocol services such as TFTP to
recover corrupted flash or accidental erasure. All available management communications
methods are outlined in this chapter.
