MAC address for the Admin Network port
Note: The MAC address label on the front of the
appliance lists the MAC address for the BMC
management port. To determine the MAC address for
the Admin Network port, you must add 2 to the
hexadecimal number on the label. For example, if the
MAC address on the label ends in 09, the MAC
address for the Admin Port would end in 0B. If the
MAC address on the label ends in (y)FF, the MAC
address for the Admin Port would end in (y+1)01. You
can easily make this calculation by opening Calculator
in Windows, setting it to Programmer mode, selecting
Hex, typing the MAC address, then typing + 2 =.
DHCP-assigned IP address for the Admin Network port,
if available after power on
Note: You can determine the DHCP-assigned IP
address by using the MAC address to look up the
assigned IP.
