5 Understanding Dell EMC network adapters and their relationship to iDRAC with Lifecycle Controller
1 Introduction
iDRAC with Lifecycle Controller has the ability to configure and monitor network cards, and some HBAs. As
Dell EMC continues to develop new solutions with our partners, the list of supported devices grows, and the
features within each card.
However, because of the timing of some cards, not all features are available. This can cause issues and may
result in loss of productivity. To safeguard against this, the following table enables you to understand the
features available for each card.
