Logging On To The Web Interface; Enabling The Intel Gigabit Ethernet Utility Program; Configuring The Gigabit Ethernet Controller - IBM System x3300 M4 Installation And Service Manual

Logging on to the Web interface

To log on to the IMM Web interface, complete the following steps:
1. Open a Web browser on a computer that connects to the server and in the
Address or URL field, type the IP address or host name of the IMM to which
you want to connect.
Note: If you are logging on to the IMM for the first time after installation, the
IMM defaults to DHCP. If a DHCP host is not available, the IMM assigns a
static IP address of 192.168.70.125. The MAC address tag provides the default
hostname of the IMM and does not require you to start the server.
2. On the Login page, type the user name and password. If you are using the
IMM for the first time, you can obtain the user name and password from your
system administrator. All login attempts are documented in the event log.
Note: The IMM is set initially with a user name of USERID and password of
PASSW0RD (passw0rd with a zero, not a the letter O). You have read/write
access. You must change the default password the first time you log on.
3. On the Welcome page, type a timeout value (in minutes) in the field that is
provided. The IMM will log you off of the Web interface if your browser is
inactive for the number of minutes that you entered for the timeout value.
4. Click Continue to start the session. The System Health page provides a quick
view of the system status.

Enabling the Intel Gigabit Ethernet Utility program

The Intel Gigabit Ethernet Utility program is part of the server firmware. You can
use it to configure the network as a startable device, and you can customize where
the network startup option appears in the startup sequence. Enable and disable the
Intel Gigabit Ethernet Utility program from the Setup utility.

Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller

The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. They provide an
interface for connecting to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps network and provide
full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and
reception of data on the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server support
auto-negotiation, the controllers detect the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T,
100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the
network and automatically operate at that rate and mode.
By default the server has enabled Ethernet 1 and Ethernet 2. Ethernet 3 and
Ethernet 4 can be enabled by the Features on Demand (FoD). Please note that the
server may need to be restarted to activate the feature. For more information on
Features on Demand (FoD), including instructions for automating the activation
and installation of the activation key by using IBM ToolsCenter or IBM Director,
see the IBM System x Features on Demand User's Guide at https://www-
304.ibm.com/systems/x/fod/index.wss under the Help section.
You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controllers. However, you
must install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the
controllers. For device drivers and information about configuring the Ethernet
controllers or to find updated information about configuring the controllers, see
