are using, without the decimals. The BMC displays the Pending Authentication state.
5. You are prompted to set the ID and password that your HMC will use to authenticate and mange
the system (the default password is expired). This is the same id and password that you will use to
access the ASMI. To set the system password, select the BMC, then select Actions > Update System
Password.
6. Click Finish.
7. Select System Actions > VMI conguration. Select the network interface, then select Modify.

Completing the server setup by using an HMC with a static network conguration
Perform these tasks to complete the server setup by using an HMC that uses a static network
conguration.
Procedure
1. Connect an Ethernet cable between the T2 (ETH0) port on the rear of the system to a PC equipped
with an Ethernet port, assuming that T3 (ETH1) is connected to the HMC.
2. If you haven't already done so, connect the power cables to the power supplies. The panel displays
01 N.
3. Log in using the default user ID and password.
Note: The default user ID is admin and the default password is admin.
4. Enter a new password to continue.
5. Press the up arrow key to select 02 and press Enter.
6. Press Enter again. A < (less than symbol) appears next to N. Press the Up Arrow key. The N changes
to an M.
7. Press Enter.
8. Press Enter twice. 02 displays on the control panel.
9. Press the Up Arrow key until it returns 30 and press Enter.
10. Press enter again. The panel now displays 3000. Press Enter.
11. Record the information that displays. You will need this information for a later step.
12. Move to your Ethernet-equipped device. Open your device's network conguration panel and assign
an IP that is the same as what you recorded in the previous step, but subtract 1. For instance, if you
recorded 169.254.176.9, then assign your laptop 169.254.176.8. Use subnet mask 255.255.0.0 on
the device. This will be the BMC's default value.
13. Use your device to verify that you can connect using the address you used in the previous step, and
then attach a web browser to that IP and open ASMI.
