HP iLO Management Engine
The HP iLO Management Engine is a set of embedded management features supporting the
complete lifecycle of the server, from initial deployment through ongoing management.
HP iLO
The HP iLO subsystem is a standard component of selected HP ProLiant servers that simplifies initial
server setup, server health monitoring, power and thermal optimization, and remote server
administration. The HP iLO subsystem includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a
dedicated network interface. This design makes HP iLO independent of the host server and its
operating system.
HP iLO enables and manages the

●
Access a high-performance and secure Remote Console to the server from anywhere in the
world.
●
Use the shared HP iLO Remote Console to collaborate with up to six server administrators.
●
