tagging on the iLO portion of the shared NIC, and make sure that the VLAN is
connected to a secure network.
• When iLO searches for an active network port, the server UID LED is illuminated. If iLO is
reset during the search, the UID LED flashes for 5 seconds and then is illuminated until an
active port is selected or iLO is reset.
• When a server supports both LOM and FlexibleLOM Shared Network Port connections to
iLO, iLO will test only the option that was selected during configuration. It will not alternate
testing between LOM and FlexibleLOM options.
• If NIC auto-selection is configured to search for DHCP address assignment activity, but only
one of the iLO network ports has DHCP enabled, iLO tests for received data packet activity
on the port that is not configured for DHCP.
