IPMI/DCMI users

The iLO firmware follows the IPMI 2.0 specification. When you add IPMI/DCMI users, the login name
must be a maximum of 16 characters, and the password must be a maximum of 20 characters.
When you select iLO user privileges, the equivalent IPMI/DCMI user privilege is displayed in the IPMI/
DCMI Privilege based on above settings box.
• User—A user has read-only access. A user cannot configure or write to iLO, or perform system
actions.
For IPMI User privileges: Disable all privileges. Any combination of privileges that does not meet the
Operator level is an IPMI User.
• Operator—An operator can perform system actions, but cannot configure iLO or manage user
accounts.
For IPMI Operator privileges: Enable Remote Console Access, Virtual Power and Reset, and Virtual
Media. Any combination of privileges greater than Operator that does not meet the Administrator level
is an IPMI Operator.
• Administrator—An administrator has read and write access to all features.
For IPMI Administrator privileges: Enable all privileges.
