2 In the Password field, enter either your iDRAC6 user password, Active
Directory user password, or LDAP password. Passwords are case
- sensitive.
3 Click OK or press <Enter>.
Logging Out
1 In the upper-right corner of the main window, click Log out to close the
session.
2 Close the browser window.
NOTE: The Log out button does not appear until you log in.
NOTE: Closing the browser without gracefully logging out may cause the session
to remain active until the session timeout is reached. It is recommended that you
click the Log out button to end a session.
NOTE: Closing iDRAC6 Web interface within Internet Explorer using the close
button ("x") at the top right corner of the window may generate an application error.
To fix this issue, download the latest Cumulative Security Update for Internet
Explorer from the Microsoft Support website, located at support.microsoft.com.
CAUTION: If you have opened multiple Web GUI sessions either through <Ctrl+T>
or <Ctrl+N> to access the same iDRAC6 from the same management station, and
then log out of any one session, all the Web GUI sessions will be terminated.
Using Multiple Browser Tabs and Windows
Different versions of Web browsers exhibit different behaviors when opening
new tabs and windows. Internet Explorer (IE) 7 and IE 8 have the option to
open tabs as well as windows. Each tab inherits the characteristics of the most
recently opened tab. Press <Ctrl–T> to open a new tab and <Ctrl–N> to
open a new browser window from the active session. Automatic login only
occurs with <Ctrl-N>. When you open a new tab, you have to login again.
Closing any one tab expires all iDRAC6 Web interface tabs. Also, if a user logs
in with Power User privileges on one tab, and then logs in as Administrator on
another tab, both open tabs then have Administrator privileges.
Tab behavior in Firefox 3 is the same as IE 7 and IE 8; new tabs are new
sessions. Window behavior in Firefox is different. Firefox windows will
operate with the same privileges as the latest window opened. For example,
if one Firefox window is open with a Power User logged in and another
window is opened with Administrator privileges, both users will now have
Administrator privileges.
