Dell iDRAC 7, User Manual, Page: 36 / 309

Accessing iDRAC using SMCLP
SMCLP is the default command line prompt when you log in to iDRAC using Telnet or SSH. For more information, see Using
SMCLP .
Logging in to iDRAC using public key authentication
You can log into the iDRAC over SSH without entering a password. You can also send a single RACADM command as a command
line argument to the SSH application. The command line options behave similar to remote RACADM since the session ends after the
command is completed.
For example:
Logging in:
ssh username@<domain>
or
ssh username@<IP_address>
where
IP_address
is the IP address of the iDRAC.
Sending RACADM commands:
ssh username@<domain> racadm getversion
ssh username@<domain> racadm getsel
