HP ProLiant Intel-based 100-series G6 servers
DNS Registration — LO100i on 100-series G6 servers comes with default host names and will
automatically register with the DNS if DHCP is enabled
LO100i shared and dedicated networks
In ProLiant DL
100-series G6 servers (with the exception of the DL120 G6), 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.
In DL 100-series servers, an optional mezzanine card provides the dedicated Ethernet port 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.
Figure 5 shows the two implementations available for the DL 100-series G6 servers.

Shared NIC DL100 G6 Configuration
The system NIC ports are shared with
LO100i for management.
Dedicated NIC DL100 G6 Configuration
A management network can be
employed by adding an optional
dedicated NIC via a mezzanine card.
The management network is physically
separated from the system network.
