Users Guide

To display the Ethernet and iSCSI MAC/WWN addresses for all iDRAC/LOMs/mezzanine cards, use the following RACADM command:
racadm getmacaddress -a
For more information on the getflexaddr and getmacaddress subcommand, see the Chassis Management Controller for
PowerEdge M1000e RACADM Command Line Reference Guide.
Viewing World Wide Name or Media Access
Control IDs
The WWN/MAC Summary page allows you to view the World Wide Name (WWN) configuration and Media Access Control (MAC)
address of a slot in the chassis.
Fabric Configuration
The Fabric Configuration section displays the type of Input/Output fabric that is installed for Fabric A, Fabric B, and Fabric C. A green
check mark indicates that the fabric is enabled for FlexAddress. The FlexAddress feature is used to deploy chassis assigned and slot
persistent WWN/MAC addresses to various fabrics and slots within the chassis. This feature is enabled on a per fabric and per slot basis.
NOTE: For more information on the FlexAddress feature, see About Flexaddress.
WWN or MAC Addresses
The WWN/MAC Address section displays the WWN/MAC information that is assigned to all servers, even if those server slots are
currently empty.
• Location displays the location of the slot occupied by the Input/Output modules. The six slots are identified by a combination of the
group name (A, B, or C) and slot number (1 or 2): slot names A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, or C2. iDRAC is the server's integrated management
controller.
• Fabric displays the type of the I/O fabric.
• Server-Assigned displays the server-assigned WWN/MAC addresses embedded in the controller's hardware.
• Chassis-Assigned displays the chassis-assigned WWN/MAC addresses used for the particular slot.
A green check mark in the Server-Assigned or in Chassis-Assigned columns indicates the type of active addresses. Chassis-assigned
addresses are assigned when FlexAddress is activated on the chassis, and represents the slot-persistent addresses. When
ChassisaAssigned addresses are checked, those addresses are used even if one server is replaced with another server.
