20 About Your System
Configuration Wizard
The CMC is preset for DHCP. To use a static IP address, you must toggle the
CMC setting from DHCP to a static address by either running the LCD
Configuration Wizard, or by using a management station and CLI
commands. (For more information, see the PowerEdge M1000e Configuration
Guide or CMC documentation.)
NOTE: After you run the configuration wizard, this option is no longer available on
the LCD menus.
1 Choose a language from the options presented in the dialog box.
2 Start the configuration wizard.
3 Configure the CMC network settings for your network environment:
• Network speed
• Duplex mode
• Network mode (DHCP or static)
• Static IP address, subnet mask, and gateway values (if static mode was
selected)
• DNS settings
4 If desired, configure the iDRAC network settings.
See the CMC User’s Guide for detailed information about the iDRAC.
NOTE: The configuration wizard automatically configures each blade’s iDRAC
internal network interface if you do not choose to manually configure the
iDRAC settings.
NOTE: You cannot set a static IP address for the iDRAC using the LCD
Configuration Wizard. To set a static IP address, use the CMC Web-based
interface or RACADM.
5 Review the settings on the Network Summary screen.
• If the settings are correct, press the center button to close the
configuration wizard and return to the Main Menu.
• If the settings are not correct, use the left arrow key to return to the
screen for that setting and correct it.
After you complete the configuration wizard, the CMC is available on your
network.
