Hello,

I am trying to do the initial operations console setup for my 520 power 5.

Windows Server -> v6r1 Client Access, op console version 6.1.0.0 490.6
LAN IP: 192.168.16.20
iSeries Target IP: 192.168.16.30
iSeries Service Name: matches the service name found in the ASMI via
serial connection

Here is what I have done:

1. Powerdown the iSeries
2. Unplug power
3. Plug in RJ45 cat6 cable from LAN port on Win server directly into T6 (LAN
eth0) on iSeries
4. Start operations console on win server
5. Click "connect" on my iSeries node
6. Plugin power to iSeries
7. Wait for front console panel to show SRC codes for boot, happy
8. Return to Win server and wait for op con to respond

Nothing. Op console always says "connecting" but nothing happens. There is
no firewall enabled on the Win server and the cables are directly attached
and properly labeled/configured.

I've tried it on both of the LAN Ethernet ports for the iSeries with the
same result.

I have waited the "20 minutes" as recommended in the op con operations
manual (pg 51 of 128).

Is there something else I need to do to setup the LAN ports, or even get
started, so that I can run the op con on the iSeries?

Note that I have mistakenly plugged in a DHCP managed network in to the
iSeries LAN Ethernet port (eth0) in prior configuration attempts.

Thanks

-- Jake
