•
None
(default)—The Ethernet ports operate independently and do not fail over if there is a problem. This setting
can be used only with the Dedicated NIC mode.
•
Active-standby
—If an active Ethernet port fails, traffic fails over to a standby port. Shared LOM and Cisco Card
modes can each use either Active-standby or Active-active settings.
•
Active-active
—All Ethernet ports are utilized simultaneously. The Shared LOM EXT mode must use only this
NIC redundancy setting. Shared LOM and Cisco Card modes can each use either Active-standby or Active-active
settings.
Step 3
Choose whether to enable DHCP for dynamic network settings, or to enter static network settings.
Before you enable DHCP, you must preconfigure your DHCP server with the range of MAC addresses for
this server. The MAC address is printed on a label on the rear of the server. This server has a range of six
MAC addresses assigned to Cisco IMC. The MAC address printed on the label is the beginning of the range
of six contiguous MAC addresses.
Note
The
static
IPv4 and IPv6 settings include the following:
• The Cisco IMC IP address.
For IPv6, valid values are 1 - 127.
• The gateway.
For IPv6, if you do not know the gateway, you can set it as none by entering :: (two colons).
• The preferred DNS server address.
For IPv6, you can set this as none by entering :: (two colons).
Step 4
(Optional) Make VLAN settings.
Step 5
Press
F1
to go to the second settings window, then continue with the next step.
From the second window, you can press
F2
to switch back to the first window.
Step 6
(Optional) Set a hostname for the server.
Step 7
(Optional) Enable dynamic DNS and set a dynamic DNS (DDNS) domain.
Step 8
(Optional) If you check the Factory Default check box, the server reverts to the factory defaults.
Step 9
(Optional) Set a default user password.
The factory default username for the server is
admin
. The default password is
password
.
Note
Step 10
(Optional) Enable auto-negotiation of port settings or set the port speed and duplex mode manually.
Auto-negotiation is applicable only when you use the Dedicated NIC mode. Auto-negotiation sets the port
speed and duplex mode automatically based on the switch port to which the server is connected. If you disable
auto-negotiation, you must set the port speed and duplex mode manually.
Note
Step 11
(Optional) Reset port profiles and the port name.
Step 12
Press
F5
to refresh the settings that you made. You might have to wait about 45 seconds until the new settings appear
and the message, “Network settings configured” is displayed before you reboot the server in the next step.
Step 13
Press
F10
to save your settings and reboot the server.
