Each box (Sun,Mercury,Venus,Earth) is plugged into the switch and has it's own IP on the cluster VLAN (.35,.36,.37,.38 respectively) this is connected the the first port on each box (for some reason eth2 within Debian although labeled eth0).

The net-management ports for Mercury, Venus and Earth are plugged into the other three network ports of Sun. Use the following commands from sun to connect:

1. Mercury: telnet 192.168.2.2
2. Venus: telnet 192.168.2.4
3. Earth: telnet 192.168.2.6
