Connectivity between iLO, the server, and the network
Knowing the points of access to and from iLO, the server, and the client helps you understand the
potential for security risks. The following sections briefly describe how the iLO design or its
configuration mitigates those risks.
Network access to iLO
These utilities identified in Figure 13 have access to the iLO processor through the network: SSH
connection, telnet connection (except for iLO 3), the web browser, the CPQLOCFG utility, SNMP,
directory services, the Lights-Out Migration Utility (for directory services), and Systems Insight
Manager or Insight Manager 7. CPQLOCFG is a Windows-based utility that allows users to configure
iLO devices. It sends RIBCL (XML) script files to iLO using a secure connection over the network.
