Configuring The Lan Over Usb Interface Manually - IBM HS22 - BladeCenter - 7870 Installation And User Manual

Configuring the LAN over USB interface manually

The IMM using the LAN over USB interface requires operating-system drivers and

attempt to perform the setup automatically, if needed. If the automatic setup fails
or if you prefer to set up the LAN over USB manually, use one of the following
processes. For more information about LAN over USB configuration on different
operating systems, see the IBM white paper Transitioning to UEFI and IMM on the
IBM web site (see "Related documentation" on page 3 for information on how to
find publications for your blade server).
