video (text and graphics) capability for a server blade, regardless of the state of the host OS or host server blade. iLO includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface. This design makes iLO independent of the host server blade and its OS. iLO provides remote access to any authorized network client, sends alerts, and provides other server blade management functions.
Deployment overview When a PXE-enabled client boots, it obtains an IP address from a DHCP server. The client obtains the name of the NBP from the appropriate boot server. Then, the client uses TFTP to download the NBP from the boot server and executes the image. For each server blade being deployed, the PXE server must be connected to the NIC designated for PXE. The server blade defaults PXE functions to NIC 1, but any of the two NC series NICs can be designated for PXE in RBSU.
