Configuring the iDRAC6 NIC
This section assumes that iDRAC6 has already been configured and is
accessible on the network. See "Configure iDRAC6 Networking" for help with
the initial iDRAC6 network configuration.
Configuring the Network and IPMI LAN Settings
NOTE: You must have Configure iDRAC6 privilege to perform the following steps.
NOTE: Most DHCP servers require a server to store a client identifier token in its

DHCP negotiation. iDRAC6 supplies the client identifier option using a one-byte
interface number (0) followed by a six-byte MAC address.
