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 servers.
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.

configuration groups:

For more information on the property default values and ranges, see the Chassis Management Controller

Configuring iDRAC VLAN Tag Settings
VLANs are used to allow multiple virtual LANs to co-exist on the same physical network cable and to
segregate the network traffic for security or load management purposes. When you enable the VLAN
functionality, each network packet is assigned a VLAN tag. VLAN tags are chassis properties. They remain
with the chassis even when a component is removed.
