Imm Network Access; Configuring The Imm Network Interface - IBM System x3850 X5 Implementation Manual

6.8.1 IMM network access

The greatest strength of the IMM is the ability to completely monitor and manage the server
from over the network. How much functionally you have through this remote access depends
entirely on your configuration of the IMM.
IMM default configuration
The default network connection for the IMM on the x3850 X5 is through the System
Management port on the back of the server. The following are the default settings of the IMM
from the factory:
Network IP: DHCP, if fails:
– IP Address: 192.168.70.125
– Subnet Mask: 255:255:255:0
– Gateway: 0.0.0.0
Default user ID: USERID
Default password: PASSW0RD where the 0 is a zero.

6.8.2 Configuring the IMM network interface

The IMM provides two paths to establish a network connection between you and the IMM by
setting either Dedicated or Shared for the Network Interface Port in the Network Configuration
panel of F1-Setup. In F1-Setup, you can access this panel by selecting System Setting 
Integrated Management Module  Network Configuration, as shown in Figure 6-27 on
page 251.

When configured as
management port. As shown in Figure 6-28, the port is located from the rear of the server on
the left side of the video port. Using this port allows for easier separation of public and
