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 not accept the changes.

NOTE: When 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 too soon may display only partially correct data for one or more iDRAC servers.

Modifying iDRAC Network Settings for Individual Server iDRAC

Using this table you can configure the iDRAC network configurations settings for each installed server. The initial values

displayed for each of the fields are the current values read from the iDRAC.

To modify the iDRAC Network Settings using the CMC Web interface:

1. In the system tree, go to Server Overview, and then click Setup → iDRAC. The Deploy iDRAC page is displayed. The

iDRAC Network Settings section lists all installed server’s iDRAC IPv4 and IPv6 network configuration settings.

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

NOTE: You must select the Enable LAN option to specify the IPv4 or IPv6 settings. For information about the

fields, see CMC Online Help.

3. To deploy the setting to iDRAC, click Apply iDRAC Network Settings. If you made changes to the QuickDeploy

settings, they are also saved.

The iDRAC Network Settings table reflects future network configuration settings; the values shown for installed

servers may or may not be the same as the currently installed iDRAC network configuration settings. Click Refresh

to update the iDRAC Deploy page with each installed iDRAC network configuration settings after changes are

made.

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 too soon may display only partially correct data for a one or more iDRAC servers.
