About this task
The PowerProtect system requires that the Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) is configured for system upgrade
and maintenance operations. Additionally, the system supports the use of iDRAC to change security settings, and remotely
power the system on and off.
CAUTION:
Do not use iDRAC to change the storage configuration, system settings, or BIOS settings, as making
changes will impact system functionality. Contact Support if changes are required in any of these areas.
Steps
1. Connect to the system serial console or connect KVM to the system.
2. Reboot the system.
3. During the system boot process, press F2 to access the BIOS menu.
4. Select iDRAC Settings.
5. Select Network.
6. Under IPv4 Settings, select Static IP Address and press Enter to specify a new static IP address.
NOTE:
DHCP is not supported for the iDRAC IP address.
NOTE:
