Configuration 13
NOTE: This requires DHCP and will not work with static IP addresses. To obtain the serial number, look at
the pull-out tab usually located in the front panel of the server. You can change the server name through
the Network Settings page of the LO100 web interface.
You can also change the server name through the telnet interface.
To do this, type the following in the telnet interface:
cd map1/nic1
set oemhp_hostname=<new_name>
where where <new_name> is the new DNS host name your server will have.
To retrieve a server IP address using the DNS naming feature, use a system connected to the same
network, open a DOS command prompt, and then type nslookup {server name}. (For example, nslookup
{CBQ123456}.)
Depending on your DNS server configuration, it might take up to 45 minutes for the DNS to register a
server name. For more DNS options in LO100, see "Configuring network settings using a web browser
(on page 49)".
