Network

The Network Settings and DCHP/DNS tabs of the Network section enable you to view and modify

network settings for iLO 2.
Only users with the Configure iLO 2 Settings privilege can change these settings. Users that do not have

the Configure iLO 2 Settings privilege can view the assigned settings.
To change network settings for iLO 2:

1.

Log in to iLO 2 using an account that has the Configure iLO 2 Settings privilege. Click
Administration>Network.

2.

Select Network Settings or DHCP/DNS.

3.

Change the settings as needed.

4.

After completing any parameter changes, click Apply to complete the changes.

iLO 2 restarts, and the connection of your browser to iLO 2 terminates. To reestablish a connection, wait

60 seconds before launching another browser session and logging in.

Network Settings

The Network Settings page displays the NIC IP address, subnet mask, and other TCP/IP-related

information and settings. From the Network Settings screen, you can enable or disable DHCP and
configure a static IP address for servers not using DHCP. All users can view the network settings, but only

users with the Configure iLO 2 Settings privilege can change these settings. To access the Network

Settings page, click Administration>Network>Network. The Network Settings page appears with the

following information and settings:

NIC enables you to set the iLO 2 NIC to Enabled, Disabled, or to Shared Network Port.

o

Enabled—Enables the primary iLO 2 network interface.

o

Disabled—Disables the iLO 2 network interface. You must use the iLO 2 RBSU or other host-
based scripting utility to re-enable the network interface.

o

Shared Network Port—Enables networking using the designated host Ethernet port. The port
appears as two separate Ethernet MACs and IP addresses on the network. See the section, "iLO
2 Shared Network Port (on page

64

)" for more information.

DHCP enables you to select static IP (disabled) or enables the use of a DHCP server to obtain an IP
address for the Integrated Lights-Out 2 subsystem.
You cannot set the iLO 2 IP Address and Subnet Mask if DHCP is enabled. Disabling DHCP enables
you to configure the IP address. The IP Address field also appears on the DHCP/DNS Settings page

for convenience. Changing the value on either page changes the DHCP setting.

IP Address is the iLO 2 IP address. If DHCP is used, the iLO 2 IP address is automatically supplied. If
not, enter a static IP address. The IP Address field appears on the DHCP/DNS page for

convenience. Entering values in the field on either page changes the IP address of the iLO 2.
