Note: v The Dell Encryption Key Manager GUI may not be capable of
displaying the host IP address
Two limitations in the current GUI prevent it from displaying the
Encryption Key Manager host IP address in the Server Health Monitor :
v The current application does not recognize IPV6. If the host is
configured with an IPV6 address, the Encryption Key Manager
application will not be able to display the IP address.
v If the Encryption Key Manager application is installed in a Linux
system, the application displays the localhost address and not the
actual active IP port.
To retrieve the actual IP address of the host system, locate the IP port
address by accessing the network configuration. In a Windows system
open a command window and enter ipconfig. For Linux enter isconfig.
