Click Save QuickDeploy Settings to save the settings. If you have made changes to the iDRAC network setting, click Apply
iDRAC Network Settings to deploy the settings to the iDRAC.
The QuickDeploy feature only executes when it is enabled, and a server is inserted in the chassis. If Set iDRAC Root Password
on Server Insertion and QuickDeploy Enabled are enabled, the user is prompted using the LCD interface to allow or not allow
the password change. If there are network configuration settings that differ from the current iDRAC settings, the user is
prompted to either accept or reject the changes.
NOTE: If there is a LAN or IPMI over LAN difference, the user is prompted to accept the QuickDeploy IP address
setting. If the difference is the DHCP setting, the user is prompted to accept the DHCP QuickDeploy setting.
To copy the QuickDeploy settings into the iDRAC Network Settings section, click Auto-Populate Using QuickDeploy Settings.
The QuickDeploy network configurations settings are copied into the corresponding fields in the iDRAC Network Configuration
Settings table.
NOTE: Changes made to QuickDeploy fields are immediate, but changes made to one or more iDRAC server network
configuration settings may require a couple of minutes to propagate from CMC to iDRAC. Clicking Refresh early may
display only partially correct data for one or more iDRAC servers.
Description
Enables or disables DHCP for each iDRAC present in the chassis. If this option is
enabled, the fields QuickDeploy IP, QuickDeploy Subnet Mask, and
QuickDeploy Gateway are disabled, and cannot be modified since DHCP is used
to automatically assign these settings for each iDRAC. To select this option, you
must select the Enable iDRAC IPv4 option. Quick Deploy IP address is provided
with two options — 2 and 4.
Specifies the static IP address of iDRAC in the server, in slot 1 of the enclosure.
The IP address of each subsequent iDRAC is incremented by 1 for each slot from
slot 1's static IP address. In the case where the IP address plus the slot number is
greater than the subnet mask, an error message is displayed.
NOTE: The subnet mask and the gateway are not incremented such as
the IP address.
For example, if the starting IP address is 192.168.0.250 and the subnet mask
is 255.255.0.0 then the QuickDeploy IP address for slot 15 is
192.168.0.265. If the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the QuickDeploy
IP address range is not fully within QuickDeploy Subnet
error message is displayed when you click Save QuickDeploy Settings or Auto-
Populate Using QuickDeploy Settings.
Specifies the QuickDeploy subnet mask that is assigned to all newly inserted
servers.
Specifies the QuickDeploy default gateway that is assigned to all the DRAC
present in the chassis.
Enables IPv6 addressing for each iDRAC present in the chassis that is IPv6
capable.
Enables the iDRAC to obtain IPv6 settings (address and prefix length) from a
DHCPv6 server and also enables stateless address auto configuration. By default,
this option is enabled.
Specifies the default IPv6 gateway to be assigned to the iDRACs. The default
value is "::".
Specifies the prefix length to be assigned for the IPv6 addresses on the iDRAC.
The default value is 64.
Communicates the CMC DNS server settings (IPv4 and IPv6) to iDRAC when a
blade server is inserted in the chassis.
