20 iDRAC6 Enterprise Overview
NOTE: It is recommended that you isolate or separate the chassis management
network, used by iDRAC6 and CMC, from your production network(s). Mixing
management and production or application network traffic may cause congestion
or network saturation resulting in CMC and iDRAC6 communication delays. The
delays may cause unpredictable chassis behavior such as CMC displaying that
iDRAC6 is offline even though it is operating properly. This may also cause other
unpredictable behavior.
iDRAC6 network interface is disabled by default. Configure iDRAC6 network
interface before iDRAC6 is made accessible. After iDRAC6 is enabled and
configured on the network, you can access iDRAC throught its assigned IP
address with iDRAC6 Web interface, Telnet or SSH, and supported network
management protocols, such as Intelligent Platform Management Interface
(IPMI).
