The

LAN Configuration

window appears.

NOTE: BMC/iDRAC management traffic will not function properly if the LAN

on motherboard (LOM) is teamed with any network adapter add-in-cards.

Configure the following NIC configuration details:

• Enable NIC (This option is available on Dell PowerEdge

x9xx

systems

and when DRAC is installed. Select this option for NIC teaming.

Dell PowerEdge

x9xx systems, you can team NICs for added

redundancy.)

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.

NOTE: NIC Selection cannot be configured on modular systems.
