Setting Description

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

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.

Modifying iDRAC Network Settings for Individual Server iDRAC

To modify the iDRAC Network Settings:

1. In the left pane, click Server Overview, and then click Setup. On the Deploy iDRAC page the iDRAC

Network Settings section lists the iDRAC IPv4 and IPv6 network configuration settings of all the

installed servers.

2. Modify the iDRAC network settings as required for the server(s).
