The dedicated TCP/IP over Ethernet management port, whether dedicated or shared, is a standard
Ethernet 10/100Mb interface that connects to the network using a standard Ethernet cable. Before using
the dedicated management port, you must determine the DHCP IP address, set a static IP address, or use
the default static IP address.

Obtaining a DHCP IP address from the BIOS Setup Utility

By default, LO100 has DHCP enabled and automatically negotiates an IP address. To view the DHCP IP
address, run the BIOS Setup Utility, or retrieve the DHCP IP address using CLP through the serial port

administrator password configured, the system prompts you to enter the password. If the server does
not have a password configured, the main screen of the BIOS Setup Utility appears.
