Configuring ILOM Using Static Ethernet Settings
As an alternative to having your DHCP server assign an IP address to your ILOM
SP, you can also assign a static IP address to it. You can do this by using the web
interface, by using the CLI over the network or serial port, or by using the server’s
BIOS Setup utility. Use the procedure you prefer.
