Preparing for Network Access
‣
The IPMI port and Ethernet ports can be connected to your local LAN.
These ports are configured for DHCP by default.
‣
To use DHCP, connect the port to a local DHCP server which should provide an
IP address and assign a DNS configuration to the DGX-1.
‣
If DHCP is not available, then you will need to set up a static IP for each
Ethernet port.
‣
NVIDIA recommends that customers follow best security practices for BMC
management (IPMI port). These include, but are not limited to, such measures as:
‣
Restricting the DGX-1 IPMI port to an isolated, dedicated, management network
‣
Using a separate, firewalled subnet
‣
Configuring a separate VLAN for BMC traffic if a dedicated network is not
available
‣
Make sure your network can connect to the following:
