‣
IPMI: 10/100BASE-T RJ45 connection
Use industry standard CAT6 Ethernet cables for connecting to the network ports.
(Cables not included.)
‣
InfiniBand: Qty 4 - QSFP28 ports, InfiniBand and Ethernet compliant
Use Mellanox-compliant InfiniBand cables for connecting to the InfiniBand ports.
(Cables not included.)
Preparing for Network Access
‣
The IPMI port and Ethernet ports can be connected to your local LAN.
These ports are configured for DHCP by default.
‣
To use DHCP, connect the port to a local DHCP server which should provide an
IP address and assign a DNS configuration to the RTX Blade Server.
‣
If DHCP is not available, then you will need to set up a static IP for each
Ethernet port.
‣
NVIDIA recommends that customers follow best security practices for BMC
management (IPMI port). These include, but are not limited to, such measures as:
‣
Restricting the RTX Blade Server IPMI port to an isolated, dedicated,
management network
‣
Using a separate, firewalled subnet
‣
Configuring a separate VLAN for BMC traffic if a dedicated network is not
available
