Virtual Power Button
Using a supported browser, command line or script interface, Integrated Lights-Out can be used to
remotely operate the power button of a host. For example, if the host server is off, you can turn it on from
Integrated Lights-Out. You can also power off and on the server in one step. A "press and hold" option is
available for the Virtual Power Button in the event a momentary press is insufficient to power off a server
with a failed operating system.

standard interfaces, browser, command line or script. Static Low Power Mode and Dynamic Power
Savings Mode can be enabled to save on server power and cooling costs. On supported ProLiant
servers, Power Regulator allows CPU's to operate at lower frequency and voltage during periods of
reduced application activity. (Visit the Power Regulator web site for supported server information.)

Network Connectivity
Integrated Lights-Out provides a choice of network connectivity through a dedicated 10/100-Mbps
Ethernet network connection or through a shared connection via one of the embedded system NICs. The
dedicated network connection supports both graphic and text mode and provides in-band SNMP
notification of server problems on a real-time basis without separate telephone connections or modem
sharing devices. The NIC can auto-select speeds between 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps. The shared network
connection supports text based interaction with iLO such as command line, virtual serial port and text
console. Shared Network port is available on firmware versions1.60 or greater and ProLiant G4 servers.
