Table 5-13. iDRAC6 Interfaces

InterfaceDescription

Web-based interface Provides remote access to the iDRAC6 using a graphical user interface. The Web-based interface is built into the iDRAC6 firmware and is accessed through the NIC interface from a supported Web browser on the management station.

RACADM	Provides remote access to the iDRAC6 using a command line
	interface. RACADM uses the iDRAC6 IP address to execute
	RACADM commands.
	NOTE: The racadm remote capability option is supported only on
	management stations. For more information, see "Using RACADM
	Remotely" on page 111.
	NOTE: When using the racadm remote capability, you must have
	write permission on the folders where you are using the
	RACADM subcommands involving file operations, for example:
	racadm getconfig -f <file name>
	or:
	racadm sslcertupload -t 1 -f
	c:\cert\cert.txt subcommands
Telnet Console	Provides access to the iDRAC6 and support for serial and
	RACADM commands including powerdown, powerup,
	powercycle, and hardreset commands.
	NOTE: Telnet is an unsecure protocol that transmits all data—
	including passwords—in plain text. When transmitting sensitive
	information, use the SSH interface.
