Dear managers,

we have to get access to the service console of a X4170 server in a remote
location. We usually

 connect to the RSC using a serial connection (Mac book with KeySpan
adaptor)
 configure an ipaddress, netmask,... for the service console
 connect to this ipaddress with a webbrowser

In this case we have no access to the physical machine since it has already
been shipped to a remote location. The ipaddress of the service console has
not been configured yet (as far as we know). We have access to the Solaris
installed on the machine though.

Can we configure the ipaddress of the service console (or find out the current
configuration) from the solaris prompt? If so how? Googling for this got me no
result so far! :-(

Thanks a lot in advance!!

Andreas
