Determining the iLO 2 MP LAN Configuration Method
To access the iLO 2 MP through the iLO 2 MP LAN, the iLO 2 MP must acquire an IP address. The
way the iLO 2 MP acquires an IP address is dependent upon whether DHCP is enabled or disabled
on the server, and if DHCP and DNS services are available to the server. (See Table 13 for possible
scenarios.)
