NEC EXP320B Server User Manual


 
4-44 System Configuration
REMOTE MANAGEMENT FUNCTION
320Fa-L and 320Fa-LR models are equipped with the optional card, N8815-001A ft Remote
Management Card on the server. By connecting to a network via their management LAN port, BMC
(Baseboard Management Controller), an LSI for system management, installed on the server allows
remote monitoring and controlling of the server such as keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) control
over management network.
Network Default Values
The following are default values to connect the server to a network.
IP Address : 192.168.1.1
User Name : administrator
Password : (None)
Host Name : ARMCXXXXXXXXXXXX
The host name above is the host name used for auto registering with a DNS server using
DHCP functions.
XXXXXXXXXXXX is the MAC address assigned to each management card. The MAC
address can be found on the label attached to the rear or the card or Server-System
Management Sub-menu Selections- Primary BMC MAC Address/Secondary BMC MAC
Address on the BIOS Set UP screen.
IMPORTANT:
The default IP address of the management LAN is 192.168.1.1 for both CPU/IO module #0
and CPU/IO module #1. Therefore the server cannot connect to network at the same time
without changing the IP address. To connect to network simultaneously, specify different IP
addresses.
To ensure security, change values for host name, password and IP address according to your
network environment.
Settings on the Server
The following describes the settings that should be made on the server to use the server.
CHECK:
The resolution and refresh rate of the screen that can be displayed on a remote KVM console
are 1024x768 and 75Hz or smaller respectively. If values larger than these are set, the remote
screen does not display any data. If a great value is set for the number of colors on the screen
for the server, the remote may not show colors accurately. Connecting this card to a network
where broadcast occurs frequently may affect remote control performance.
