iDRAC configuration
The Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) is designed to make you more productive as a system administrator and
improve the overall availability of Dell EMC servers. iDRAC alerts you to system issues, helps you to perform remote
management, and reduces the need for physical access to the system.
Options to set up iDRAC IP address
To enable communication between your system and iDRAC, you must first configure the network settings based on your
network infrastructure. The network settings option is set to
DHCP , by default.
NOTE: For static IP configuration, you must request for the setting at the time of purchase.
You can set up the iDRAC IP address using one of the following interfaces. For information about how to set up iDRAC IP
address, see the documentation links provided in the table.
