REMOTE MANAGEMENT FEATURE
The server uses BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) which is the system management LSI, to
monitor the inernal hardware status including system temperature, voltage, and electric power. It
also generates System Event Log (SEL) at occurrence of hardware failure, and notifies it. When a
management LAN is connected with network, the server may be managed from the remote console
via BMC by using Web browser or Telnet/SSH client. If an optional N8115-03 Remote Management
Enhanced License is installed, the remote device feature becomes available. With the remote device
feature, the remote console can use KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) of the server. The server
can access the CD/DVD-ROM drive, floppy disk drive, ISO image, and USB memory device of the
remote site.
For more information about remote management using Web browser and remote device feature,
refer to the "EXPRESSSCOPE Engine 2 User's Guide" stored in NEC EXPRESSBUILDER DVD.
NOTE:
power may contain an error. Depending on operating environment, an
error may be several tens percent.
Changing Setting for Management LAN
The management LAN uses the management LAN port in ordinary case.
To make the LAN port #3 to be shared with the management LAN, run SETUP and select [Server] -
[BMC LAN Configuration] - [Shared BMC LAN] - [Enabled]. When set to [Enabled], the
management LAN port is disabled.
IMPORTANT:
When the management LAN port is used as a management LAN,
the link speed is fixed to 100Mbps. When the LAN port 3 is used as
a management LAN, the link speed is 10Mbps in standby state, or
100Mbps in power-on state. (Up to 1.0Gbps is available for the
shared standard LAN.) Accordingly, if the LAN cross cable is used
for connection, the LAN cable seems to be disconnected when the
link speed is switched. Do not use the LAN cross cable for
connection.
When the LAN port 3 is used as a management LAN, the network
performance may be reduced because the data of both LANs must
be transmitted or received.
