Enabling Additional iDRAC6 Security Options
To prevent unauthorized access to your remote system, the iDRAC6 provides
the following features:
• IP address filtering (IPRange) — Defines a specific range of IP addresses
that can access the iDRAC6.
• IP address blocking — Limits the number of failed login attempts from a
specific IP address
These features are disabled in the iDRAC6 default configuration. Use the
following subcommand or the Web-based interface to enable these features:
racadm config -g cfgRacTuning -o <object_name> <value>
Additionally, use these features in conjunction with the appropriate session
idle time-out values and a defined security plan for your network.
