Setting Description

NOTE: The subnet mask and the gateway are not

incremented such as the IP address.

For example, if the starting IP address is

192.168.0.250 and the subnet mask is

255.255.0.0 then the QuickDeploy IP address for

slot 15 is

192.168.0.265. If the subnet mask is

255.255.255.0, the QuickDeploy IP

address range is not fully within

QuickDeploy Subnet

error message is displayed

when you click Save QuickDeploy Settings or Auto-

Populate Using QuickDeploy Settings.

iDRAC IPv4 Netmask Specifies the QuickDeploy subnet mask that is assigned

to all newly inserted servers.

iDRAC IPv4 Gateway Specifies the QuickDeploy default gateway that is

assigned to all the DRAC present in the chassis.

Enable iDRAC IPv6 Enables IPv6 addressing for each iDRAC present in the

chassis that is IPv6 capable.

Enable iDRAC IPv6 Autoconfiguration Enables the iDRAC to obtain IPv6 settings (address and

prefix length) from a DHCPv6 server and also enables

stateless address auto configuration. By default, this

option is enabled.

iDRAC IPv6 Gateway Specifies the default IPv6 gateway to be assigned to the

iDRACs. The default value is "::".

iDRAC IPv6 Prefix Length Specifies the prefix length to be assigned for the IPv6

addresses on the iDRAC. The default value is 64.

3. Click Save QuickDeploy Settings to save the settings. If you have made changes to the iDRAC network setting, click

Apply iDRAC Network Settings to deploy the settings to the iDRAC.

The QuickDeploy feature only executes when it is enabled, and a server is inserted in the chassis. If Set iDRAC Root

Password on Server Insertion and QuickDeploy Enabled are enabled, the user is prompted using the LCD interface

to allow or not allow the password change. If there are network configuration settings that differ from the current

iDRAC settings, the user is prompted to either accept or reject the changes.

NOTE: If there is a LAN or IPMI over LAN difference, the user is prompted to accept the QuickDeploy IP

address setting. If the difference is the DHCP setting, the user is prompted to accept the DHCP QuickDeploy

setting.

To copy the QuickDeploy settings into the iDRAC Network Settings section, click Auto-Populate Using QuickDeploy

Settings. The QuickDeploy network configurations settings are copied into the corresponding fields in the iDRAC

Network Configuration Settings table.

NOTE: Changes made to QuickDeploy fields are immediate, but changes made to one or more iDRAC server

network configuration settings may require a couple of minutes to propagate from CMC to iDRAC. Clicking

Refresh early may display only partially correct data for one or more iDRAC servers.
