RE: Change the FSP IP address

Pete,

For all my remote work, I first connect to our corporate network via Sonic Wall VPN.
Then I remote desktop desktop from my home laptop to work PC.
From there I access what ever I need, LPARs, HMC, etc.

We found if you try connecting directly from home laptop, (no RDP) you run into routing issues, etc.

Hope this helps.

Paul

Thanks Paul..there are two changes needed...there is an IP assigned to the vHMC which is the one accessible from the "Console Management"
link. Since I was changing networks as well as host IP I needed to make that change AFTER I accessed the ASM and changed the FSP IP. There was an option for launching the ASM in the vHMC which basically started a new "tab" and I signed in. On that menu I chose "Network Configuration"
and changed the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway entries and then saved the changes. Then I changed the console settings so that the HMC could find the FSP again.

So far, it works when I am attached to the local network but I am still trying to sort out the issues of accessing the FSP IP remotely through our VPN so I can run the vHMC on my laptop connecting through the VPN to the FSP. Just need to put my network and routing hat on for a while...

On the vHMC, look for Console Management, Change Network settings, lan adapters.
I don't have a vHMC, but an HMC.

Seems like the only way to change an FSP IP address is to use ASMI to do that. Is that correct? I barely remember setting up the vHMC a year ago and that is when I set the IP. I'd like to change it if possible. There are some instructions that mention getting to the ASM through the HMC which is what I will try, but it seems like I saw where the ASMI had a web interface that could be used directly?
