Figure 31 Network Summary page (iLO Dedicated Network Port)

The iLO Shared Network Port and the iLO Dedicated Network Port cannot operate simultaneously.
If you enable the iLO Dedicated Network Port, you will disable the iLO Shared Network Port. If
you enable the iLO Shared Network Port, you will disable the iLO Dedicated Network Port.

The Network Summary page for the inactive port displays the message iLO is not configured
to use this NIC.

The summary information follows:

NIC in Use—The name of the selected iLO network interface (iLO Dedicated Network Port or
Shared Network Port).

iLO Host Name—The fully qualified network name assigned to the iLO subsystem. By default,
the iLO host name is ILO followed by the system serial number and the current domain name.
This value is used for the iLO network name and must be unique.

MAC Address—The MAC address of the selected iLO network interface.

Link State—The current link speed of the selected iLO network interface. The default value is
Auto-Negotiate.

Duplex Option—The current link duplex selection for the selected iLO network interface. The
default value is Auto-Negotiate.

You can configure the iLO host name and NIC settings on the Network General Settings page. For
instructions, see

“Configuring general network settings” (page 72)

.

IPv6 is supported by iLO 3 1.50 and later in the iLO Dedicated Network Port configuration. The
IPv6 protocol was introduced by the IETF in response to the ongoing depletion of the IPv4 address
pool. In IPv6, addresses are increased to 128 bits in length, to avoid an address shortage problem.
iLO supports the simultaneous use of both protocols through a dual-stack implementation. All
previously available iLO features are still supported in IPv4.

NOTE:

IPv6 is not supported in the Shared Network Port configuration.
