Obtaining the IP address for the Web interface access
To access the Web interface and use the remote presence feature, you need the IP
address for the IMM. You can obtain the IMM IP address through the Setup utility.
To locate the IP address, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on the server.
Note: Approximately 3 minutes after the server is connected to ac power, the
power-control button becomes active.
2. When the prompt F1 Setup is displayed, press <F1>. If you have set both a
power-on password and an administrator password, you must type the
administrator password to access the full Setup utility menu.
3. From the Setup utility main menu, select System Settings.
4. On the next screen, select Integrated Management Module.
5. On the next screen, select Network Configuration.
6. Find the IP address and write it down.
7. Exit from the Setup utility.
Logging on to the Web interface
To log on to the Web interface to use the remote presence functions, complete the
following steps:
1. Open a Web browser on a computer that connects to the server and in the
address or URL field, type the IP address or host name of the IMM to which
you want to connect.
Notes:
a. If you are logging in to the IMM for the first time after installation, the IMM
defaults to DHCP. If a DHCP host is not available, the IMM uses the default
static IP address 192.168.70.125.
b. You can obtain the DHCP-assigned IP address or the static IP address from
the server firmware or from your network administrator.
The Login page is displayed.
2. Type the user name and password. If you are using the IMM for the first time,
you can obtain the user name and password from your system administrator. All
login attempts are documented in the event log. A welcome page opens in the
browser.
Note: The IMM is set initially with a user name of USERID and password of
PASSW0RD (passw0rd with a zero, not the letter O). You have read/write
access. For enhanced security, change this default password during the initial
configuration.
3. On the Welcome page, type a timeout value (in minutes) in the field that is
provided. The IMM will log you off the Web interface if your browser is inactive
for the number of minutes that you entered for the timeout value.
4. Click Continue to start the session. The browser opens the System Status
page, which displays the server status and the server health summary.
Using the embedded hypervisor
The VMware ESXi embedded hypervisor is available on server models that come
with an installed USB embedded hypervisor flash device. The USB flash device
comes installed in the USB connector on the SAS/SATA RAID riser card (see the
