information about the server, and configure information about the card,
including LAN and PPP assignments. From here you can also set up a
remote firmware update of the HP Server Remote Management Card or
you can set up the HP Server to boot using a remote boot image.

Includes a diagnostic test to scan server memory.

Used to initiate remote control of server functions,
including server console redirection, remote shutdown and server reboot.
To use these options, you must install the included TFTP software. Refer
to Appendix C for details.

Support.
Provides listings of additional user resources relative to server
configuration and management. Best used when also connected to the
World Wide Web for ready access to HP's web pages.

Use with Toptools Device Manager.
The HP Server Remote Management
Card fully integrates with the Toptools Device Manager product (version

be done via accessing a server page of a server that has the HP Server
Remote Management Card installed, or through the Others list under
Devices|Device Types.
all s:
If you use the HP Server Remote Management Card in a server
managed by HP Toptools Device Manager, you can perform “group
actions” on multiple HP Server Remote Management Cards by selecting
the cards you want with your mouse and right-clicking. Group actions
include adding and deleting users, changing user passwords, viewing user
configurations, replicating card configurations, powering on and off the
server, and updating card firmware.
CAUTION
A special procedure is required when performing group
actions on tc3100 and tc4100 servers. This is presented in
Appendix G.
Access to the HP Server Remote Management Card management features depend
on the privilege level of the user. For detailed information about user privileges,
refer to the HP Server Remote Management Card online help.
