Log In to Oracle ILOM Using a Remote Ethernet Connection

Language:

Note - Oracle ILOM is shipped with a default administrator account and password that allows first-time login and access. The default account is root and the password is changeme. To build a secure environment and to enforce user authentication, you must change the default password for this account. If this default Administrator account has since been changed, contact your system administrator for an Oracle ILOM user account with Administrator privileges.

Note - To prevent unauthorized access to Oracle ILOM, create user accounts for each user. For details, see Establishing User Accounts and Roles.

Connect an Ethernet cable between the NET MGT port on the server and the network switch.
DHCP and IPv6 stateless auto-configuration are enabled by default, allowing a DHCP server on the network to automatically assign network settings to the service processor (SP).
To launch and log in to the Oracle ILOM web interface:
1. Open a web browser window.
2. Ensure that the web browser is supported by Oracle ILOM. For more information, refer to the Oracle ILOM User's Guide for System Monitoring and Diagnostics, Firmware Release 4.0.x at https://www.oracle.com/goto/x86admindiag/docs.
