Basic BMC Alerting Over a LAN

If you plan to use your system's BMC to send alerts (Platform Event Traps),
you must follow the BMC configuration guidelines listed in Table 1-2.
NOTE:
The LAN-sharing depends on the NIC selection configuration option. The
available options are Shared and Failover, and if a RAC card is present, the additional
option available is Dedicated. See the NIC Selection option in the table in "Remote
Access Configuration Utility Options" section for more information on Shared, Failover,
and Dedicated.
NOTE:
The Dedicated NIC selection option is available only if you are using Dell
Remote Access Controller (DRAC) 5.
