110 Using the CMC Web Interface
Table 5-9. Network Settings
Setting Description
CMC MAC Address Displays the chassis’ MAC address, which is a unique
identifier for the chassis over the computer network.
Enable CMC NIC Enables the NIC of the CMC.
Default: Enabled. If this option is checked:
• The CMC communicates with and is accessible over the
computer network.
• The Web interface, CLI (remote RACADM), WSMAN,
Telnet, and SSH associated with the CMC are available.
If this option is not checked:
• The CMC NIC cannot communicate over the network.
• Communication to the chassis through CMC is not
available.
• The Web interface, CLI (remote RACADM), WSMAN,
Telnet, and SSH associated with the CMC
are not available.
• The server iDRAC Web interface, local CLI, I/O
modules, and iKVM are still accessible.
• Network addresses for the iDRAC and CMC can be
obtained, in this case, from the chassis' LCD.
NOTE: Access to the other network-accessible components
in the chassis is not affected when the network on the
chassis is disabled (or lost).
