Configuring network access

The server is connected to the network using a standard Ethernet cable. Through this connection, you can
access the remote management CLP, verify POST remotely, and access the BIOS setup utility remotely.

To configure network access:

1.

Connect a standard Ethernet cable between the onboard NIC on the server rear panel and a
network jack. By default, the remote management card has DHCP enabled and will automatically
negotiate an IP address. (The ProLiant ML110 G2 system also provides the ability to set up a static IP
address through the BIOS setup menu. Refer to the following "To set up a static IP address"
procedure.)

2.

Obtain the DHCP IP address by using one of the following methods:

Look at the DHCP clients table

Read the IP address from BIOS setup menu (Press the F10 key during POST) under
Advanced/IPMI/LAN Setting.

3.

On the target server, press the F10 key during POST to enter BIOS setup.

4.

In the BIOS Setup utility, press the right arrow (→) key to navigate to the Advanced menu.

5.

Press the down arrow (↓) key to scroll to IPMI. Press the Enter key.

6.

Press the down arrow (↓) key to scroll to the LAN Settings submenu. Press the Enter key.

7.

Press the down arrow (↓) key to scroll to the following settings, and set the parameters as needed
(the following example shows configuring for remote management processor access using telnet and
a Web page):

BMC Telnet Service: [Enabled]

BMC Ping Response: [Enabled]

BMC HTTP Server: [Enabled]

8.

Using the DHCP IP address, use telnet to log into the remote management CLP, or use a Web
browser to access the HTML interface.

To set up a static IP address:

1.

On the target server, press the F10 key during POST to enter BIOS setup.

2.

In the BIOS Setup utility, press the right arrow (→) key to navigate to the Advanced menu.

3.

Press the down arrow (↓) key to scroll to IPMI. Press the Enter key.

4.

Press the down arrow (↓) key to scroll to the LAN Settings submenu. Press the Enter key.

5.

Set the IP Address Assignment to STATIC. This setting enables you to modify a static IP address
through the BIOS setup menu.
