Console Quick Start iLO MP LAN Though there are several methods to configuring the LAN, DHCP with DNS is the preferred method. DHCP with DNS comes preconfigured with default factory settings, including a default user account and password. By default, the iLO 2 MP LAN uses DHCP to retrieve a new LAN address for itself if the firmware version on the iLO 2 MP is E.03.15 or newer. When this occurs, the default hostname is set to “mp”.
