User's Manual

admin accounts are disabled. It is not necessary to configure a static IP address for the iDRAC. It gets one from a DHCP

server on the network. To make use of the auto-discovery feature, a DHCP server or a DNS server (or both) must be

configured to support the discovery process. CSIOR has already been run by factory process. For more information on

how to set up a network to support auto-discovery, see the Dell Auto-Discovery Network Setup Specification at http://

attachments.wetpaintserv.us/xBUlrs4t%2B2TzbrwqYkblvQ%3D%3D2 62254

1. During the boot process, press <Ctrl-E>.
