Dell POWEREDGE M1000E - Manual (Page 102)

Setting Description
NOTE: Note the following:
– The values of the number of IP addresses that
are less than the minimum value required for a
server type are grayed out.
– If you select an option that is lesser than the
default value of the number of IP addresses
reserved, an error message is displayed
warning that reducing the number of IP
addresses prevents quick deploy of profiles to
higher capacity servers.
– A warning message is logged in the CMC
hardware log (SEL) and an SNMP alert is
generated.
– The quick deploy prompt on the LCD panel is
not displayed if a higher capacity server is
inserted in lower locations when QuickDeploy
feature is enabled. To see the quick deploy
option on the LCD panel for the higher capacity
servers again change the IP addresses value to
the default value and reseat the higher
capacity servers.
NOTE:
Starting iDRAC IPv4 Address (Slot 1) Specifies the static IP address of iDRAC in the server, in
slot 1 of the enclosure. The IP address of each
subsequent iDRAC is incremented by 1 for each slot
from slot 1's static IP address. In the case where the IP
address plus the slot number is greater than the subnet
mask, an error message is displayed.
NOTE: The subnet mask and the gateway are not
incremented like the IP address.
For example, if the starting IP address is
192.168.0.250 and the subnet mask is
255.255.0.0 then the QuickDeploy IP address for
slot 15 is 192.168.0.265. When you try to set the
fields starting IP address, reserved IP addresses, and
subnet mask values such that the combination may
generate an IP address outside the subnet, the
QuickDeploy IP address range is not
fully within QuickDeploy Subnet error
message is displayed when you click the Save
QuickDeploy Settings or Auto-Populate Using
QuickDeploy Settings. For example, if the starting IP is
192.168.1.245, reserved IP addresses is 16 and
subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the IP addresses
generated for slots beyond 11 are all outside the subnet.
Hence, trying to set this combination for QuickDeploy
settings generates an error message.
iDRAC IPv4 Netmask Specifies the QuickDeploy subnet mask that is assigned
to all newly inserted servers.
iDRAC IPv4 Gateway Specifies the QuickDeploy default gateway that is
assigned to all iDRAC present in the chassis.
