Don't laugh at this idea.
2 PCs here can function as LAN Console. Each has 2 NIC cards, with the 2nd
NIC dedicated to the LAN Console connection. There is a single Linksys
switch on top of the System i rack with 3 ethernet cables attached:
1) To the T5 (I think) jack on the System i (10.10.10.1)
2) To my PC (10.10.10.2)
3) To the office manager's PC (10.10.10.3)
This is a completely isolated network. If I run an ethernet cable from the
ASMI to that switch and can figure out the IP address of the ASMI, can I
just point a browser from my PC tohttps://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address? And then I could RDP to my desktop from
home and away we go?
