Using the System Setup Program

Command Line Interfaces for System Setup

Options

The options in the System Setup menu allows you to control the System

Configuration Utility (syscfg). This utility is included in the Dell

OpenManage Deployment Toolkit (DTK).
See the Deployment Toolkit Version 1.3 User's Guide for additional

information about installing and using the DTK utilities, and the

Deployment Toolkit Version 1.3 Command Line Interface Reference Guide

for a complete list of all valid options, suboptions, and arguments for using

the BMCCFG.EXE to configure and manage your BMC.
You can use the system configuration utility for the following conditions:

• To change the System Setup option by D4 token:

./syscfg –t=D4_token_id
(Example: ./syscfg -t=0x002D to enable NIC1 Option ROM)

• To check token activity status:

./syscfg --istokenactive=D4_token_id
(Example: ./syscfg --istokenactive=0x002D to check the token active

status of NIC1 Option ROM)

• To directly change the System Setup option through BMC memory:

./ipmitool raw <command> <data>
(Example: ./ipmitool raw 0xc 1 1 3 10 106 42 120 to set IP address of BMC

management port as 10.106.42.120)
