Logging in to iLO for the first time
iLO is configured with a default user name, password, and DNS name. Default user information is located
on the iLO Network Settings tag attached to the server containing the iLO management processor. Use
these values to access iLO remotely from a network client using a standard Web browser.
For security reasons, HP recommends changing the default settings after logging in to iLO for the first
time.
The default values are:
User name-Administrator
Password-A random, eight-character, alphanumeric string
DNS Name-ILOXXXXXXXXXXXX, where the Xs represent the serial number of the server
NOTE:
Progressive delays for failed browser login attempts
After an initial failed log in attempt, iLO imposes a security delay. For more information on login security,
refer to "Login security (on page 58)."
