Web-based interface.

1
Log in to the CMC Web interface.
2 Select Server Overview in the system tree. The Servers Status page
appears.
3 Click the Launch iDRAC GUI button for the server you want to manage.
To launch the iDRAC management console for an individual server:
1
Log in to the CMC Web interface.
2 Expand Server Overview in the system tree. All of the servers (1–16)
appear in the expanded
Servers list.
