Sun Fire X2270 M2 Server Service Procedures and Information
The ILOM SP is assigned a DHCP IP address by default.
There are two requirements for DHCP IP address assignment to occur:
Connection to your network must be through a NET MGT port.
DHCP services must be present on your network infrastructure.
If a DHCP server cannot be reached after three DHCP requests, the ILOM SP is assigned a static IP address based on the network management port MAC address. This IP address is always in the format 192.168.xxx.xxx, where xxx.xxx is the remainder of the IP address.
You can choose from one of several ILOM SP interfaces to support system management on your server.
You can access SP firmware applications through the following ILOM SP interfaces:
Serial port command-line interface (CLI) (local access)
Secure shell (SSH) CLI (remote access over the network)
Web interface (remote access over the network)
