DRAC/MC Module
The DRAC/MC provides serial and Ethernet management ports, a status indicator when redundant
DRAC/MCs are installed (when available), and status indicators for the DRAC/MC and for the link to
the system's onboard network interface controller (see Figure1-10). See the documentation for the
DRAC/MC module for specific information on serial port redirection of server modules and switches.
Table1-8 provides information about the status indicators.
