Hi,
You will need the following if you are connecting to the SUN serial/net management port from your laptop.
If you laptop has a serial connection available you will need
A cisco roll over cable.

If you do not have a serial output then you need that cisco rollover cable connected to the serial to usb connector

Connect the serial cables together then plug that USB to your system.
Be aware that each USB port will be labeled as a different COM port.
Just find the com port in your device manager.
Use terminal emulators like putty and connect via "Serial"
Hit "enter" repeatly if you you get no response or "#." to get to ALOM
I hope that answers what you are looking for.

SYSTEMD-GETTY-GENERATOR(8) systemd-getty-generator SYSTEMD-GETTY-GENERATOR(8)
NAME
systemd-getty-generator - Generator for enabling getty instances on the console
SYNOPSIS
/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-getty-generator
DESCRIPTION
systemd-getty-generator is a generator that automatically instantiates serial-getty@.service on the kernel console(s), if they can function
as ttys and are not provided by the virtual console subsystem. It will also instantiate serial-getty@.service instances for virtualizer
consoles, if execution in a virtualized environment is detected. If execution in a container environment is detected, it will instead
enable console-getty.service for /dev/console, and container-getty@.service instances for additional container pseudo TTYs as requested by
the container manager (see Container Interface[1]). This should ensure that the user is shown a login prompt at the right place, regardless
of which environment the system is started in. For example, it is sufficient to redirect the kernel console with a kernel command line
argument such as console= to get both kernel messages and a getty prompt on a serial TTY. See kernel-parameters.txt[2] for more information
on the console= kernel parameter.
systemd-getty-generator implements systemd.generator(7).
Further information about configuration of gettys can be found in systemd for Administrators, Part XVI: Gettys on Serial Consoles (and
Elsewhere)[3].
