Dell IDRAC6 manual 312, LAN User Configuration Description

Table 17-3. LAN User Configuration

Item	Description
Auto-Discovery	The auto-discovery feature enables automated discovery of
	unprovisioned systems on the network; further, it securely
	establishes initial credentials so that these discovered systems
	can be managed. This feature enables iDRAC6 to locate the
	provisioning server. iDRAC6 and provisioning service server
	mutually authenticate each other. The remote provisioning
	server sends the user credentials to have iDRAC6 create a user
	account with these credentials. Once the user account is
	created, a remote console can establish WS-MAN
	communication with iDRAC6 using the credentials specified
	in the discovery process and then send the secure instructions
	to iDRAC6 to deploy an operating system remotely.
	For information on remote operating system deployment, see
	the Dell Lifecycle Controller User Guide available on the Dell
	Support website at support.dell.com/manuals.
	Do the following prerequisite actions in a separate iDRAC6
	Configuration Utility session before manually enabling
	auto-discovery:
	• Enable NIC
	• Enable IPv4
	• DHCP enable
	• Get domain name from DHCP
	• Disable admin account (account #2)
	• Get DNS server address from DHCP
	• Get DNS domain name from DHCP
	Select Enabled to enable the auto discovery feature. By
	default, this option is Disabled. If you have ordered a Dell
	system with the auto discovery feature Enabled, then iDRAC6
	on the Dell system is shipped with DHCP enabled with no
	default credentials for a remote login.
