HP Insight Control Software for Linux - Manual (Page 189)

By default, the cmfd connects to the management processor using the SSH protocol. The iLO
management processors support the SSH protocol, but the LO100i management processors for
the DL100 G5 series servers require an HP LO100i Advanced Pack License to enable SSH support.
Alternatively, if you do not want to purchase this license, you can instruct cmfd to connect to the
management processors using the telnet protocol by performing the following steps:
1.
Use the editor of your choice to edit the /opt/hptc/cmf/conf/cmf.conf to add the
following line:
CMF_OPTIONS="-C telnet"
2. Save the file.
3. Restart the cmfd daemon:
# service cmfd restart
NOTE: To enable telnet on an iLO-based management processor, you must connect to the
iLO using a browser and enable telnet by accessing Administration and selecting Access Settings
in the left frame.
To enable telnet access to the management processor (iLO) on each managed system, follow
these steps:
1.
Open a web browser to the IP address of the management processor:
http://192.0.2.124
2. Enter the management processor user name and password when the login screen appears.
3. Select Administrator.
4. Select Access Settings in the left pane.
5. Set Telnet Access to Enabled.
6. Repeat this procedure on every managed system.
