Configuring network access
The server is connected to the network using a standard Ethernet cable. Through this connection, you can
access the remote management CLP, verify POST remotely, and access the BIOS setup utility remotely.
To configure network access:
1. Connect a standard Ethernet cable between the onboard NIC on the server rear panel and a
network jack. By default, the remote management card has DHCP enabled and will automatically
negotiate an IP address. (The ProLiant ML110 G2 system also provides the ability to set up a static IP
address through the BIOS setup menu. Refer to the following "To set up a static IP address"
procedure.)
2. Obtain the DHCP IP address by using one of the following methods:
Look at the DHCP clients table
Read the IP address from BIOS setup menu (Press the F10 key during POST) under
Advanced/IPMI/LAN Setting.
3. On the target server, press the F10 key during POST to enter BIOS setup.
4. In the BIOS Setup utility, press the right arrow () key to navigate to the Advanced menu.
5. Press the down arrow () key to scroll to IPMI. Press the Enter key.
6. Press the down arrow () key to scroll to the LAN Settings submenu. Press the Enter key.
7. Press the down arrow () key to scroll to the following settings, and set the parameters as needed
(the following example shows configuring for remote management processor access using telnet and
a Web page):
BMC Telnet Service: [Enabled]
BMC Ping Response: [Enabled]
BMC HTTP Server: [Enabled]
8. Using the DHCP IP address, use telnet to log into the remote management CLP, or use a Web
browser to access the HTML interface.
To set up a static IP address:
1. On the target server, press the F10 key during POST to enter BIOS setup.
2. In the BIOS Setup utility, press the right arrow () key to navigate to the Advanced menu.
3. Press the down arrow () key to scroll to IPMI. Press the Enter key.
4. Press the down arrow () key to scroll to the LAN Settings submenu. Press the Enter key.
5. Set the IP Address Assignment to STATIC. This setting enables you to modify a static IP address
through the BIOS setup menu.
