Set LAN Configuration

Use this feature to configure the IPMI LAN adapter with a network
address.

Channel Number - This item displays the channel number for the
SET LAN Configuration command.

Channel Number Status - This feature returns the channel status
for the Channel Number selected above: Channel Number is OK or
Wrong Channel Number.

IP Address Source - Select how an IP address is assigned to a client
computer or network device. Select DHCP (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol) to allow a client (computer or device) to
obtain an IP address from a DHCP server that manages a pool of IP
addresses and network information on a request and grant basis.
Select Static (Static Allocation) to allow the host server to allocate
an IP address based on a table containing MAC Address/IP Address
pairs that are manually entered (such as by a network
administrator). Only clients with a MAC address listed in the MAC/
IP Address Table will be assigned an IP address.

IP Address - The BIOS will automatically display the IP address of
the machine. This should be in decimal and in dotted quad form
(i.e., 192.168.10.253). The value of each three-digit number
separated by dots should not exceed 255.

Note: This feature can be changed by the user when the IP Source
is set to Static.

Subnet Mask - This item displays the current subnet mask setting
for your IPMI connection. This should be in decimal and in dotted
quad form (e.g., 192.168.10.253). The value of each three-digit
number separated by dots should not exceed 255.
