Configure static IP bay settings for the dedicated iLO management NICs on each
server blade in an enclosure for faster deployment.
The server blade must be properly cabled for iLO connectivity. Connect to the server
blade with one of the following methods:
Through an existing network (in the rack): This method requires you to install the
server blade in its enclosure and assign it an IP address (manually or using
DHCP).
Through the server blade I/O port
— In the rack: This method requires you to connect the local I/O cable to the I/O
port and a client PC. Using the static IP address listed on the local I/O cable label
and the initial access information on the front of the server blade, you can access
the server blade with the iLO Advanced Remote Console. For local I/O cabling
instructions, refer to Chapter 6, "Connecting Local I/O Devices."
— Out of the rack, with the diagnostic station: This method requires you to power
the server blade with the optional diagnostic station and connect to an external
computer using the static IP address and the local I/O cable. For cabling
instructions, refer to the documentation that ships with the diagnostic station or to
the Documentation CD.
