Setting Description

Confirm iDRAC Root Password Allows you to retype the password provided in the Password

field.

Enable iDRAC LAN Enables or disables the iDRAC LAN channel. By default, this

option is cleared.

Enable iDRAC IPv4 Enables or disables IPv4 on iDRAC. By default, this option is

selected.

Enable iDRAC IPMI over LAN Enables or disables the IPMI over LAN channel for each

iDRAC present in the chassis. By default, this option is

selected.

Enable iDRAC IPv4 DHCP Enables or disables DHCP for each iDRAC present in the

chassis. If this option is enabled, the fields QuickDeploy IP,

QuickDeploy Subnet Mask, and QuickDeploy Gateway are

disabled, and cannot be modified since DHCP is used to

automatically assign these settings for each iDRAC. To select

this option, you must select the Enable iDRAC IPv4 option.

Quick Deploy IP address option is provided with two values 4

and 2.

Reserved QuickDeploy IP Address Select the number of static IPv4 addresses reserved for

iDRACs in the chassis. The IPv4 addresses starting from

Starting iDRAC IPv4 Address (Slot 1) are considered as

reserved and assumed to be unused elsewhere in the same

network. Quick Deploy feature does not work for servers that

are inserted into slots for which there is no reserved static

IPv4 address.

Starting iDRAC IPv4 Address (Slot 1) Specifies the static IP address of iDRAC in the server, in slot 1

of the enclosure. The IP address of each subsequent iDRAC is

incremented by 1 for each slot from slot 1's static IP address.

In the case where the IP address plus the slot number is

greater than the subnet mask, an error message is displayed.

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 4c 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.
