This document provides basic Oracle ILOM 3.2.6 information as it pertains to the switch.
Oracle ILOM is a means of remotely managing a hardware device through an SP. For the switch, the SP is the management controller within the switch. Oracle ILOM enables monitoring and controlling of users, hardware, services, protocols, and configuration. You can use Oracle ILOM to perform tasks that could otherwise be accomplished with the hardware commands.
Oracle ILOM has two primary interfaces:
Oracle ILOM CLI. See Oracle ILOM CLI Overview.
Oracle ILOM Web. See Oracle ILOM Web Interface Overview.
The Oracle ILOM web interface enables point-and-click administration of the Oracle ILOM components and services. You access these interfaces using the default root user account through Oracle ILOM. The root account is fully privileged to add, delete, create, enable, disable, and so on, the Oracle ILOM targets, components, and services.
Additionally, the Oracle ILOM implementation supports an industry-standard SNMP interface.
When you upgrade the management controller (SP) firmware to version 1.1.2 or higher, Oracle ILOM 3.2.x support is installed. An additional benefit of Oracle ILOM is that future SP and firmware upgrades are greatly simplified. For information about the Oracle ILOM, refer to the documentation at:
