The Web Browser-based McRAID Storage Manager can be accessed through the In-Band PCI-X/PCIe bus or Out-of-Band Lan port.

The In-Band method uses the ArcHttp proxy server to launch the McRAID Storage Manager. The Out-of-Band method allows local or remote to access the McRAID Storage Manager from any standard internet browser via a LAN or WAN with no software or patches required.

Controller with onboard Lan port, you can directly plug an Ethernet cable to the controller Lan port, then enter the McBIOS management to configure the network setting. After network setting configured and saved, you can find the current IP address in the System Information page.
