USC and USC - LCE 49
• Ethernet IP Address — Enables you to specify or edit a static IPv4 address
for the iDRAC NIC. The IP address you enter in the
Ethernet IP Address
field is reserved, and used only when DHCP fails to resolve and assign an
available IP address. The
Ethernet IP Address field is limited to a
maximum value of 255.255.255.255.
• Subnet Mask — Enables you to specify or edit the static subnet mask for
the iDRAC NIC. The subnet mask defines the significant bit positions in
the IPv4 address. The
Subnet Mask string should be in the form of a
netmask, where the more significant bits are all ones (1) with a single
transition to all zeros (0) in the lower-order bits. For example:
255.255.255.0. The
Subnet Mask field is limited to a maximum value of
255.255.255.255.
• Default Gateway — Enables you to specify or edit the static IPv4 default
gateway for the iDRAC NIC. Requests that cannot be resolved locally are
routed to this address. The
Default Gateway field is limited to a
maximum value of 255.255.255.255.
• Get DNS Servers from DHCP — If set to Yes , the iDRAC NIC acquires
the Domain Name System (DNS) server information from the DHCP
server, and deactivates the
DNS Server 1 and DNS Server 2 controls. If set
to
No , the iDRAC NIC does not acquire the DNS Server information from
the DHCP server, and you must manually define the
DNS Server 1 and
DNS Server 2 fields.
• DNS Server 1 — Enables you to specify or edit the static IPv4 address for
a
primary DNS server. This IPv4 address is that of a DNS server utilized
for
name-to-IPv4 address resolution. The DNS Server 1 field is limited to
a
maximum value of 255.255.255.255.
• DNS Server 2 — Enables you to specify or edit the static IPv4 address for
a
secondary DNS server. In the event that DNS Server 1 does not produce
results, the
DNS Server 2 IPv4 address serves as a backup utilized for
name-to-IPv4 address resolution. This field is limited to a maximum value
of 255.255.255.255.
