It's indipendent from the OS, part of the LIC..

Theoretically, could my PC have a 2nd NIC, a cat5 direct to a port on the
520 (like T5), and be the console; then, if my PC takes a powder, any other
PC could take over the console so long as the ops con portion of i Access is
loaded, even if that PC has only 1 NIC?

No need for multiple NICs. It's best to use a dedicated network
connection for the initial setup (which uses BOOTP), but after that
you're free to do what you want. I usually wire the console into the
customer's management LAN, if he has one.

In case of Power6 520's, you can even share the LAN console port with
the operating system, which you can't do on systems without HEAs.
