Configuring The Remote Access Device To Use A LAN
Connection
To configure the remote access device for communication over a LAN connection:
1. Click the Modular Enclosure > System/Server Module > Main System Chassis/Main System > Remote Access
object.
2. Click the Configuration tab.
3. Click LAN.
The LAN Configuration window appears.
NOTE: BMC/iDRAC management traffic does not function properly if the LAN on motherboard (LOM) is teamed with
any network adapter add-in-cards.
4. Configure the following NIC configuration details:
● Enable NIC (Select this option for NIC teaming.)
NOTE: Your DRAC contains an integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-T Ethernet NIC and supports TCP/IP. The NIC has a
default address of 192.168.20.1 and a default gateway of 192.168.20.1.
NOTE: If your DRAC is configured to the same IP address as another NIC on the same network, an IP address conflict
occurs. The DRAC stops responding to network commands until the IP address is changed on the DRAC. The DRAC
must be reset even if the IP address conflict is resolved by changing the IP address of the other NIC.
NOTE: Changing the IP address of the DRAC causes the DRAC to reset. If SNMP polls the DRAC before it initializes, a
temperature warning is logged because the correct temperature is not transmitted until the DRAC is initialized.
● NIC Selection
NOTE: NIC Selection cannot be configured on modular systems
NOTE: The NIC Selection option is available only on 11G and earlier systems.
● Primary and Failover Network options
For YX2X systems, the Primary Network options for Remote Management (iDRAC7) NIC are: LOM1, LOM2, LOM3, LOM4,
and Dedicated. The Failover Network options are: LOM1, LOM2, LOM3, LOM4, All LOMs, and None.
NOTE:
The Dedicated option is available when the iDRAC7 Enterprise License is present and valid.The number of
LOMs varies based on the system or hardware configuration.
● Enable IPMI Over LAN
● IP Address Source
