Lights out management port of the Citrix ADC MPX appliance
November 18, 2019
Some Citrix ADC appliances have an Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI), also known as
the lights out management (LOM) port, on the front panel of the appliance. You can use the LOM port
to remotely monitor and manage the appliance, independently of the Citrix ADC software.
Connect the LOM port to a dedicated channel that is separate from the data channel, to maintain
connectivity to the appliance even if the data network is down. You eliminate the data cable and data
network as a single point of failure.
You can access the LOM port through a browser and use the GUI (GUI) for most tasks. All tasks can be
performed through the Citrix ADC shell.
You can use either the GUI or a shell for the following tasks:
• Configuring the network settings
• Health monitoring
• Power control operations
• Factory reset
