* Shared and dedicated network port is currently an optional feature on some ProLiant 100-series G6 servers

and may be purchased as an option.

** The DNS registered names require high speed network ports to accommodate the large packet sizes

associated with this feature. High speed network ports are included on ProLiant DL series servers. The shared

low speed network ports on the ProLiant ML series servers do not support DNS registered names.

LO100i includes the following feature support for the AMD 100-series G6 server platforms:

• Host access to in-band IPMI 2.0 features supported by IPMI-aware operating systems

• DNS Registration —The LO100i device comes with default host names and will automatically

LO100i shared and dedicated networks

In the ProLiant DL100-series G6 serv

ers, LO100i supports a full-speed shared Ethernet port and a

dedicated Ethernet port. LO100i and the server share the full-speed Ethernet port, utilizing the system

network for both. Since the connection is full speed, it supports Graphic Remote Console and virtual

media.

The dedicated Ethernet port is provided for DL 100-series G6 servers by means of an optional

mezzanine card and enables a separate management network. LO100i implementation varies

depending on whether the 100-series G6 server is a DL, SL, or an ML platform.
