Setting Description
• Quick Deploy and Server Prole — Select this option to rst apply the iDRAC
network settings, and then to apply the server prole assigned when a new server is
inserted in the chassis.
Set iDRAC Root Password on Server
Insertion
Select the option to change iDRAC root password to match the value provided in the
iDRAC Root Password eld, when a server is inserted.
iDRAC Root Password When the Set iDRAC Root Password on Server Insertion and QuickDeploy Enabled
options are selected, this password value is assigned to a server's iDRAC root user
password when the server is inserted into a chassis. The password can have 1 to 20
printable (including white spaces) characters.
Conrm iDRAC Root Password Allows you to retype the password provided in the Password eld.
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 elds QuickDeploy IP, QuickDeploy Subnet Mask, and QuickDeploy Gateway are
disabled, and cannot be modied 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) Species 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 Species the QuickDeploy subnet mask that is assigned to all newly inserted servers.
iDRAC IPv4 Gateway Species 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 Autoconguration Enables the iDRAC to obtain IPv6 settings (address and prex length) from a DHCPv6
server and also enables stateless address auto conguration. By default, this option is
enabled.
iDRAC IPv6 Gateway Species the default IPv6 gateway to be assigned to the iDRACs. The default value is "::".
