The Integrated Administrator provides secure password encryption, tracking all login attempts and
maintaining a record of all login failures. The Integrated Administrator also provides the following
additional security features:
●
User actions logged in the Integrated Administrator System Log
●
Login legal warning
IP Security allows an administrator to define a set of IP addresses that are the only ones allowed to
connect to the services provided (SSH, HTTP, HTTPS, TELNET, SNMP). This means that an
administrator can make sure only a certain set of machines have access to the Integrated Administrator.

Automatic Network Configuration

The Integrated Administrator provides automatic network configuration of the IP address and host name
using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Dynamic DNS/WINS. The Integrated
Administrator comes with a default name and DHCP client that leases an IP address from the DHCP
server on the network. For networks that do not use DHCP, the Integrated Administrator can use a static
IP configuration.

Automatic Time Configuration (NTP)

Automatic time configuration allows the Integrated Administrator to synchronize its date and time with
a compatible Network Time Protocol (NTP) Time Server.

SOAP Interface

The Integrated Administrator provides a handful of commands via the Simple Object Access Protocol
(SOAP) interface for manageability tools that utilize SOAP. This interface provides a handful of
commands for inventory and power management of the enclosure and blades managed by the IA. All
Administrator access level accounts can use the SOAP interface, and it is enabled using a command
line (CLI) command or the GUI.

Power Reporting

The Integrated Administrator collects power measurements from BC2000/BC2500 blades and reports
them via the CLI and GUI. These blades self measure using hardware measurement components
specifically in the BC2000/BC2500 series of blades. Using these measurements, a +-10% estimate of
power consumption for the enclosure is calculated. The overall enclosure power consumption estimate
can be collected by the CLI, GUI, and SOAP interface.
