Shared NIC DL100 G6 Configuration
The system NIC ports are shared with
LO100i for management.
Dedicated NIC DL100 G6 Configuration
A management network can be
employed by adding an optional
dedicated NIC via a mezzanine card.
The management network is physically
separated from the system network.
Figure 7 indicates that the ML100-series G6 and DL120 G6 serv
ers have a dedicated Ethernet
management port. This port cannot be used by the system network.

G6 Configuration
The ML100 series G6/DL120 G6
ships with a dedicated NIC port for
management. This NIC port can be
connected to the system network, or
to a separate management network.
Virtual KVM and Virtual Media, are
supported in dedicated NIC
configurations.
