Configuring the LOM Port
You can use the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI), also known as the Lights Out
Management (LOM) port, to remotely monitor and manage the appliance, independently of the
NetScaler software. For initial configuration of the lights-out management (LOM) port, connect
to the port's default IP address and change it to the address that you want to use for remote
monitoring and management. Also specify the administrator credentials and the network
settings.
Note:
The LEDs on the LOM port are unoperational by design on all MPX platforms, except MPX
22040/22060/22080/22100/22120 and MPX 24100/24150.
To configure the NetScaler LOM Port
1.
Connect the LOM port to a management workstation or network.
2.
In a web browser, type:
http://192.168.1.3
.
Note:
The NetScaler LOM port is preconfigured with the IP address 192.168.1.3 and
subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
