Initial Server Setup
This section describes how to power on the server, assign an IP address, and connect to server management
when using the server in standalone mode.
Note
Server Default Settings
The server is shipped with these default settings:
• The NIC mode is Shared LOM EXT.
Shared LOM EXT mode enables the 1-Gb/10-Gb Ethernet ports and the ports on any installed Cisco
virtual interface card (VIC) to access the Cisco Integrated Management Interface (Cisco IMC). If you
want to use the 10/100/1000 dedicated management ports to access Cisco IMC, you can connect to the
server and change the NIC mode as described in Setting Up the System With the Cisco IMC Configuration
Utility, on page 17.
• The NIC redundancy is Active-Active. All Ethernet ports are utilized simultaneously.
• DHCP is enabled.
• IPv4 is enabled.
