Interacting with the iLO 2 MP Using the Web GUI
Web browser access is an embedded feature of the iLO 2 MP.
Before starting this procedure, you must have the following information:
• DNS name for the iLO 2 MP LAN. This is found on the toe-tag on the server.
• Host name
To interact with the iLO 2 MP through the web, follow these steps:
1. Open a web browser and enter the DNS name or the IP address for the iLO 2 MP.
2. Log in using your user account name and password at the login page. (Figure 4-1).

NOTE: The iLO 2 MP web interface session times out after five minutes if there is no
activity. If you open a remote console terminal window, the system remains open in the
web interface session until you sign out. Also, the web session does not timeout if vMedia
is connected.
3. Click Sign In. The Status Summary page (Figure 4-2) appears after login.
