Olive Management?

(Networkgod or any other Juniper heads out there)

Can anyone tell me how they manage their olives prior to any configuration?
Is there a way to console in through a term server?

Thanks.

So I'll console into a nic(rendered as an fxp) port.....

Seems I have jinstall 7.5, and I am destined to get the ELF error...

hmmmnnnnn

Ok, correction.... I need crossover or rollover serial cables, then connect
them from the access server port(s) to the serial port(s) of the motherboard(s)
on the Olive....

(still thinking

)

Your right, thanks. My term serv is a Cisco 2511.
It seems I'll have to come up with another option. At this
time, I'm still waiting on my NICs to arrive.

I'm also waiting for my cases to arrive. Got a butt load of spare parts.

I'll start with two, rack mounted.... (that JNCIS must be achieved)
