Table 4-30 Remote management options
The nx360 M4 provides a dedicated Ethernet port that allows connection to the
IMM2. It is a port to access the IMM2 separately from the onboard two-port 1 Gb
Ethernet controller. Alternatively, the first 1 Gb Ethernet port from the onboard
controller can be configured in Shared mode to allow access to the IMM2. With
Shared mode enabled, the dedicated IMM port is disabled.
