Set the network connection for the Lenovo XClarity Controller

Before you can access the Lenovo XClarity Controller over your network, you need to specify how Lenovo
XClarity Controller will connect to the network. Depending on how the network connection is implemented,
you might need to specify a static IP address as well.
The following methods are available to set the network connection for the Lenovo XClarity Controller if you
are not using DHCP:
• If a monitor is attached to the server, you can use Lenovo XClarity Controller to set the network
connection.
• If you are using the Lenovo XClarity Administrator Mobile app from a mobile device, you can connect to
the Lenovo XClarity Controller through the Lenovo XClarity Controller micro-USB connector on the front of
the server. For the location of the Lenovo XClarity Controller USB connector, see "Front view" on page 17.
To connect using the Lenovo XClarity Administrator Mobile app:
1. Connect the USB cable of your mobile device to the Lenovo XClarity Administrator USB connector on
the front panel.
2. On your mobile device, enable USB tethering.
3. On your mobile device, launch the Lenovo XClarity Administrator mobile app.
4. If automatic discovery is disabled, click Discovery on the USB Discovery page to connect to the
Lenovo XClarity Controller.
For more information about using the Lenovo XClarity Administrator Mobile app, see:

Important: The Lenovo XClarity Controller is set initially with a user name of USERID and password of
PASSW0RD (with a zero, not the letter O). This default user setting has Supervisor access. Change this user
name and password during your initial configuration for enhanced security.

XClarity Provisioning Manager.
