These are solutions to problems that occur when a local console
fails to connect to a server over a network.
Try these possible solutions:
Make sure the network is working.
Verify that you provided the correct password that allows the server to
access your service device information during the configuration wizard. Also,
verify that you provide the correct service tools user ID and password.
If you are using Ethernet for your network, you can use a crossover cable
to directly connect the PC to the adapter card temporarily. This will isolate
the PC and server from any potential problems on your network that might interfere
with proper operations.
Note: A crossover cable is a standard network cable
but has the transmit and receive signal wires reversed. This virtually allows
each end to act as if a hub, switch, or router is between them.
