Adding and Configuring DRAC III Demand Dial-Out Entries
NOTE: You must have Admin privileges in Server Administrator to use the Remote Access Service.
If you set the dial-in (PPP) setting to Preset, the demand dial-out entry causes the Remote Access
Service to disconnect and call the management station back at a preset number. Upon callback, you
must provide your DRAC user authentication to access the Remote Access Service.
NOTE: The DRAC managed system software uses a PPP connection to talk to the installed DRAC. The IP address
for this PPP connection is 192.168.234.235. It is possible that this network IP address could already be in use by
other systems or applications. If this situation occurs, the PPP connection fails to operate. If this address is already
in use, the user is required to change the managed-system PPP client IP address to a different number. To change
the managed-system PPP server IP address to use another network so that conflicts do not occur, you must use
the racadm utility. See the Dell Remote Access Controller Racadm User's Guide for information about using the
racadm utility.
To add a demand dial-out entry, perform the following steps:
1
On the Server Administrator home page, click the Main System Chassis object, and then click the
Remote Access Controller object.
2 Click the Configuration tab.
3 Select Demand Dial-Out .
