System Management Integration
With the R630, the job of deploying, updating, monitoring, and maintaining the Select Network Adapters is fast and easy.
System management integration features include the following:
● Pre-boot: Use the Dell Lifecycle Controller graphical user interface (GUI) to set configuration such as bandwidth allocation
or firmware revision level
● Post-boot: Agent-free out-of-band or high-speed in-band connection over LOM through the Operating System or BMC
pass-thru feature for sensory information
● Automation of firmware and driver version deployment upon component replacement
● Automatic monitoring of NIC status and notification on SNMP traps
● Local- or remote reconfiguration of any NIC: physical or virtual
● PXE boot enabled on all LOM and NDCs for ease of use
● Boot from SAN (iSCSI,or FCoE) configuration for networking devices through the Lifecycle Controller GUI
