Note: Some types of I/O modules, such as a pass-thru module, have no
management port.
To communicate with the blade servers for functions such as deploying an
operating system or application program, you also will need to configure at
least one external (in-band) port on an Ethernet I/O module installed in I/O
module bay 1 or 2. See the Installation and User's Guide for your BladeCenter
unit for general information about configuring the external ports on Ethernet
I/O modules.
