Using the dedicated management port
The dedicated management port is a standard Ethernet 10Mb interface and is
connected to the network using a standard Ethernet cable. Before using the
dedicated management port you will need to determine either the DHCP IP
address, set a static IP address, or use the default static IP address.
To obtain a DHCP IP address from BIOS setup:
1. Connect a standard Ethernet cable between the onboard NIC on the server
rear panel and a network jack. By default, the remote management processor
has DHCP enabled and automatically negotiates an IP address. To view the
DHCP IP address, run the BIOS setup program or retrieve the DHCP IP
address using CLI through the serial port connection.

not have a password configured, the main screen of the BIOS Setup Utility
appears.
