Log In to ILOM Using the Web Interface

This section describes how to log in to the ILOM web interface.

Note

ILOM boots automatically when a Sun system is connected to an AC power supply or when a server module is inserted into a powered chassis. If the management Ethernet is not connected or if the ILOM's Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) process fails due to the absence of a DHCP server on the management network, ILOM might take longer to start.

Connect to ILOM Web Interface

Disabling the use of the browser proxy server (if used) for access to the management network can make the web interface response time faster.

You need the IP address of ILOM. For information on viewing and setting the IP address, see Assign IP Addresses to the Sun Server Platform SP Interfaces.

Follow these steps to log in to the ILOM Web interface:

  1. To log in to the web interface, type the IP address of ILOM into your web browser.

    The web interface login page appears.

  2. Type your user name and password.

    The default user name is root and the default password is changeme.

    The default user name and password are lowercase characters.

    One local user ID is predefined with the user name root assigned with the role Administrator. You cannot delete this user ID or change its role attributes. The initial password changeme is also provided. This password is required to log in to the command-line interface (CLI), Secure Shell (SSH), and the web interface.

  3. Click Log In.

    The web interface Version page appears.

After you have logged in to ILOM and established network connectivity to the system, you should reset the default password (changeme) that is associated with the ILOM root acount to protect your system from unauthorized access. For information about resetting the ILOM root account password, see Change ILOM Root Account Password Using Web Interface.
