Physically Connecting the Server Blade to the iLO 2 MP
Use one of the following methods to connect the server blade to the iLO 2 MP:
• Connect to the iLO 2 MP with DHCP enabled. Use the Onboard Administrator iLO (OA/iLO)
network port on the rear of the enclosure. If the OA/iLO network port on the enclosure is
connected to the local network that has a DHCP server, your iLO 2 MP IP address is
automatically generated by the DHCP server. The server blade is factory set with DHCP
enabled.
• Connect to the iLO 2 MP with no network connection. Use the console serial port on the
SUV cable. If the enclosure is not connected to any network, you must configure your server
through the console serial port (RS-232) on the SUV cable.
