Using Nmap To Identify The Ip Address Of The Ilo - HP HPE Edgeline EL1000 User Manual

Using NMAP to identify the IP address of the iLO

Using NMAP to identify the IP address of the iLO
Prerequisites Prerequisites
You are permitted to scan your network
You know the MAC address of your network (as mentioned in the identification tag of the blade)
Procedure Procedure
1. Open a command prompt.
2. Enter the following NMAP command:
nmap -sP -oN logfile.txt <NETWORK ADDRESS>
The command sweeps the network and returns a list of IP addresses in use, and their associated MAC addresses. For example, if your
network address is 192.168.0.1/24 , your command must be:
nmap -sP -oN logfile.txt 192.168.0.1/24
If the MAC address on your blade identification tag is ' AA:B5:22:F0:EE:A3', then the logfile.txt will be similar to the following output:
Host is up (0.00036s latency).
MAC Address: AA:46:A0:65:49:A0 (Hewlett Packard)
Nmap scan report for server1.mis.hpe.net (192.168.0.12)
Host is up (0.00037s latency).
MAC Address: AA:B5:22:F0:EE:A3 (Hewlett Packard)
Nmap scan report for server-1-ilo.mis.hpe.net (192.168.0.13)
Host is up (0.00038s latency).
You can identify the IP address of your iLO by matching the MAC address from the identification tag of the blade to the list
generated. In the example provided, the MAC address matches the iLO MAC. So the IP address is 192.168.0.13 .
