1) Connectivity between PC and Ethernet Adapter Port on 9009-41G. Do not
connect it to either of the two HMC ports. Instead use T1 ( Top Port ) from
any of the following slots C5, C6, C7, C8, C9, C10, C11, C12 where an
Ethernet Card is installed.

Hi Evan,

Thank you for the reply.

I don't have a card in C12. I do have a number of RJ45's
in C11. I tried C11 and didn't get ACS to find a console
there either. The document I was looking at said to
connect the LAN console to T1. And during the
configuration I had choices:
A600 500A = No console defined
A601 500A = Twinax console
A602 500A = Direct cable console
A603 500A = LAN console
A604 500A = HMC console

So it makes sense to plug it into the same port as the
HMC. (When a person has an HMC)

I am taking a guess that all the RJ45's in C11 won't
communicate until after the network is configured.

I do have my firewall on the PC tuned off. My Antivirus is
excluding ACS and Windows Defender is turned off.

Re: Setting up system console for the first time:

Hi Gary

If it's a lan console then the ethernet cable should be connected to a
port
in the ethernet card installed in the machine, probably in slot c12.

I'm working on creating a console on a new 41G Power 9.

I have connected a CAT5 cable from T1 to a PC.
I have configured the PC Local Area Connection to DHCP.
I did get an IP address of 169.254.195.126
I can ping to it from the PC.
I turned on the Power 9 and configured the console for a
LAN console. I am getting A603500C indicates
success.
I installed ACS on the PC.
I selected Management > System Configurations
I Clicked Locate Console... button.
There was no address in the "Near" field
I clicked Search.
I waited. Nothing was found.
I was expecting it to find 169.254.195.126

On the PC I'm running Java version 8 update 281

How can I get it to find the console?
