Setting Up Initial Access to the CMC
To manage CMC remotely, connect the CMC to your management network
and then configure the CMC network settings.
NOTE: To manage the M1000e solution, it must be connected to your management
network.
For information on how to configure the CMC network settings, see
"Configuring the CMC Network" on page 40. This initial configuration
assigns the TCP/IP networking parameters that enable access to the CMC.
The CMC and iDRAC on each server and the network management ports for
all switch I/O Modules are connected to a common internal network in the
M1000e chassis. This allows the management network to be isolated from the
server data network. It is important to separate this traffic for uninterrupted
access to chassis management.
The CMC is connected to the management network. All external access to
CMC and iDRACs is accomplished through the CMC. Access to the
managed servers, conversely, is accomplished through network connections
to I/O modules (IOMs). This allows the application network to be isolated
from the management network.
