DRAC 5
This section provides information about advanced DRAC 5 configuration and
is recommended for users with advanced knowledge of systems management
and who want to customize the DRAC environment to suit their specific
needs.
Before You Begin
You should have completed the basic installation and setup of your DRAC 5
hardware and software. See "Basic Installation of the DRAC 5" for more
information.
Configuring DRAC 5 Properties
You can configure the DRAC 5 properties (network, users, and so on) by
using either the Web-based interface or the RACADM.
The DRAC 5 provides a Web-based interface and RACADM (a command-
line interface) that enables you to configure the DRAC 5 properties and
users, perform remote management tasks, and troubleshoot a remote
(managed) system for problems. For everyday systems management, use the
DRAC 5 Web-based interface. This chapter provides information about how
to perform common systems management tasks with the DRAC 5 Web-
based interface and provides links to related information.
All Web-based interface configuration tasks can also be performed with
RACADM.
Configuring the DRAC 5 Using the Web User
