Using DRAC/MC Remote Access Features
You can initially configure the DRAC/MC module and the network switch module using the serial
port on the DRAC/MC module, a client system, and a serial null modem cable. Initial
configuration allows you to configure a static IP address on the DRAC/MC and network switch
modules. The DRAC/MC uses the default static IP address of 192.168.0.120, which is configurable
by the user. The default static IP address can be used to for the management station to bring up the
DRAC/MC configuration screen.
The DRAC/MC module serial port provides a interface to configure the DRAC/MC itself and/or
any of the I/O switch modules through their respective CLI. After an IP address is set, they can be
managed through their graphical user interfaces (GUI) or through their Telnet CLI, or you can
continue to use the serial interface.
To assign an IP address to a server module using the operating system, see the operating system
documentation for more information.
