Setup Checklist Use the checklist in Table 1-5 to assist with the Integrity iLO 2 MP setup process. Table 1-5 Setup Checklist Step Action Standard Setup 1 Preparation 1. Determine an access method to select and connect the cables. 2. Determine a LAN configuration method and assign an IP address if necessary.
Setup Flowchart Use this flowchart as a guide to assist in the iLO 2 MP setup process.
Preparation You must perform the following tasks before you can configure the iLO 2 MP LAN. • Determine the physical access method to select and connect cables. • Determine the iLO 2 MP LAN configuration method and assign an IP address if necessary. Determining the Physical iLO 2 MP Access Method Before you can access the iLO 2 MP, you must first determine the correct physical connection method. The iLO 2 MP has a separate LAN port from the system LAN port.
Table 1-7 LAN Configuration Methods DHCP DNS RS-232 Serial Port (iLO LAN Configuration Method 2 MP LC command) Yes Yes No DHCP Yes Yes Yes DHCP, RS-232 serial port, or remote/modem port No No No ARP Ping No Yes No ARP Ping No Yes Yes ARP Ping, RS-232 serial port, or remote/modem port Yes No Yes RS-232 serial port, or remote/modem port No No Yes RS-232 serial port, remote/modem port, or ARP Ping Yes No No Cannot set up the LAN. Reconsider your criteria.
Configuring the iLO 2 MP LAN Using ARP Ping The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and Packet Internet Grouper (Ping) utility uses ARP packets to ping, or discover, a device on the local network segment. The IP address you assign to the server must use the same network segment, or subnet, as the computer assigning the address. ARP does not work across routed or switched networks.
6. At the DOS prompt, enter ping followed by the IP address to verify that the iLO 2 MP LAN port is configured with the appropriate IP address. The destination address is the IP address that is mapped to the iLO MAC address. Perform this task from the PC that has the ARP table entry. ping For example: ping 192.0.2.1 7. 8. Connect to the iLO 2 MP LAN using this IP address.
4. Connect the cables. a. Connect the DB-9 end of the RS-232 serial port female-to-female cable to the console RS-232 serial port. b. Connect the other end of the DB-9 female-to-female cable to the console device. 5. 6. 7. 8. Start the emulation software on the console device. Log in to the iLO 2 MP. See “Logging In to the iLO 2 MP” (page 46). At the MP Main Menu, enter CM and press Enter to select command mode. At the command mode prompt, enter LS and press Enter.
Additional Setup This section provides additional information to help you set up the iLO 2 MP. Modifying User Accounts and Default Password The iLO 2 MP comes preconfigured with default factory settings, including a default user account and password. The two default user accounts at initial login are as follows: • • All Rights (Administrator) level user: login = Admin password = Admin Console Rights (Operator) level user: login = Oper password = Oper NOTE: User account and password are case sensitive.
Security Access Settings CAUTION: When DHCP is enabled, the system is vulnerable to security risks because anyone can access the iLO 2 MP until you change the default user name and password. HP strongly recommends you assign user groups and rights before proceeding. Determine the security access required and user accounts and privileges needed. The iLO 2 MP provides options to control user access.
