You synchronize the appliance time with the VM host time.

When prompted to change the Administrator password, you use the password SDC14u$.

You specify the following for the appliance networking settings:

A.3.2 Planning for network sets

To enable servers to connect any Ethernet production network or test network without having to
specify an individual network name, and to provision additional networks of these types without
being required to change the configuration for every server, this data center requires network sets
for these networks:

Production networks

Development networks

Test networks

A.3.3 Planning for users and roles

The Administrator user ID, which has full access and privileges on the appliance, can perform
all configuration steps.
The appliance provides RBAC (role-based access control), which enables an administrator to quickly
establish authentication and authorization for users based on their responsibilities for specific
resources. Users can view only the resources for which they are authorized, and they can initiate
actions only for the resources for which they are authorized.
The appliance also provides SSO (single sign-on) for the server iLO and the enclosure Onboard
Administrator. The appliance roles are mapped to the appropriate role for the iLO or Onboard
Administrator.

“Understanding the security features of the appliance” (page 49)

describes controlling access for

authorized users. The online help lists the minimum required privileges for each task and resource.
For the sample data center, assume that all tasks are performed by a user with Infrastructure
administrator privileges, such as the Administrator user.
