Configuring network settings using a web browser

The Network Settings screen displays IP address, subnet mask, and other TCP/IP-related settings. From the
Network Settings screen, you can enable or disable DHCP and configure a static IP address for servers
not using DHCP. You can view and modify the network settings when logged in as either OEM or
administrator (admin).

To modify the network settings, from the browser main menu navigation bar, click Network Settings, enter
the new settings, and then click Apply.
The Network Settings page now lists the following information:

MAC AddressDisplays the MAC address.

IP AddressDisplays the current BMC IP address and enables you to set it to Static.

Subnet MaskDisplays the LO100 IP network subnet mask. If you are using DHCP, the subnet mask
is automatically supplied. If not, enter the network subnet mask.

GatewayDisplays the IP address of the network gateway. If you are using DHCP, the network
gateway IP address is automatically supplied. If not, enter the network gateway address.
For the static IP to work, all network settings must be correct.

DHCPEnables you to set the BMC IP to DHCP by selecting the Enabled box, or to Static by
clearing the Enabled box. For the changes to take effect, click Apply.
When setting the BMC IP to Static, to set a valid static IP, you must enter a static IP into the IP
Address field before clicking Apply.

DNS Server IP AddressDisplays IP address of the DNS server.

DNS Server Alternate IP AddressDisplays secondary DNS IP address.

DNS Host NameDisplays the host name set by user, defaulted to lo100. This
name is the DNS name associated with the IP address. If DHCP and DNS are configured correctly,
this name can be used to connect to the LO100 subsystem instead of the IP address.
