iDRAC configuration

The Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) is designed to make system administrators more productive and improve the overall

availability of Dell systems. iDRAC alerts administrators to system issues, helps them perform remote system management, and reduces the

need for physical access to the system.

Options to set up iDRAC IP address

You must configure the initial network settings based on your network infrastructure to enable the communication to and from iDRAC. You

can set up the IP address by using one of the following interfaces:

You must use the default iDRAC IP address 192.168.0.120 to configure the initial network settings, including setting up DHCP or a static IP

for iDRAC.

NOTE:

To access iDRAC, ensure that you install the iDRAC port card or connect the network cable to the Ethernet connector 1

on the system board.

NOTE:

Ensure that you change the default user name and password after setting up the iDRAC IP address.
