Modifying iDRAC Network Settings for Individual Server
iDRAC
Using this table you can congure the iDRAC network congurations settings for each installed server. The initial values displayed for each
of the elds 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 conguration 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 elds, 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 reects future network conguration settings; the values shown for installed servers may or may
not be the same as the currently installed iDRAC network conguration settings. Click Refresh to update the iDRAC Deploy page with
each installed iDRAC network conguration settings after changes are made.
NOTE: Changes made to QuickDeploy elds are immediate, but changes made to one or more iDRAC server network
conguration 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.
Modifying iDRAC Network Settings Using RACADM
RACADM config or getconfig commands support the -m <module> option for the following conguration groups:
cfgLanNetworking
cfgIPv6LanNetworking
cfgRacTuning
cfgRemoteHosts
cfgSerial
cfgSessionManagement
For more information on the property default values and ranges, see the Chassis Management Controller for Dell PowerEdge M1000e
RACADM Command Line Reference Guide.
Conguring 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 trac 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.
NOTE
: The VLAN ID congured using CMC is applied to iDRAC only when iDRAC is in dedicated mode. If iDRAC is in shared
LOM mode, the VLAN ID changes made in iDRAC are not displayed on the CMC GUI.
