The Define Networks tool provides an interface through
which the administrator can create and edit network
definitions that can be used by the Network
Configuration Editor tool. The network definitions are
used by the OS installation tools to implement booting
using the virtual media mechanism.
IMPORTANT: The network definitions must be created
before initiating bare-metal discovery through virtual
media.

The Network Configuration Editor allows the
administrator to apply predefined network configuration
parameters to servers that will be booted using the virtual
media mechanism.

“Discovering bare-metal
servers using virtual
media” (page 39)
This tool allows the administrator to initiate a bare-metal
discovery for servers using their already discovered
management processors. It is a single page that allows
the user to select the boot method of the server as either
PXE or virtual media, then boots the server using the
selected method to initiate a bare-metal discovery.
