DHCPv4 settings
• Enable DHCPv4—Enables iLO to obtain its IP address (and many other settings) from a
DHCP server.
• Use DHCPv4 Supplied Gateway—Specifies whether iLO uses the DHCP server-supplied
gateway. If DHCP is not used, enter a gateway address in the Gateway IPv4 Address box.
• Use DHCPv4 Supplied Static Routes—Specifies whether iLO uses the DHCP
server-supplied static routes. If not, enter the static route destination, mask, and gateway
addresses in the Static Route #1, Static Route #2, and Static Route #3 boxes.
• Use DHCPv4 Supplied Domain Name—Specifies whether iLO uses the DHCP
server-supplied domain name. If DHCP is not used, enter a domain name in the Domain
Name box on the Network General Settings page.
