Configuring the LAN interface of the iRMC S2/S3
3.1.1.2 Interaction between the IP addresses of the iRMC S2/S3 and the
system
The LAN controller of the PRIMERGY server requires a separate IP address for
the iRMC S2/S3 in order to ensure that data packets are reliably transferred to
the iRMC S2/S3 (and not to the operating system).
The IP address of the iRMC S2/S3 must be different from that of the system
(operating system).
3.1.1.3 Access from a different subnet
If the remote workstation accesses the iRMC S2/S3 of the managed server from
a different subnet and DHCP is not used, you must configure the gateway.

3.1.2 Configuring the LAN interface: Configuration tools

You can configure the iRMC S2/S3’s LAN interface in a number of ways:
Depending on the type of the PRIMERGY server
using the BIOS / TrustedCore / UEFI setup utility (see page 44),
iRMC S2/S3 web interface (see section "Network Settings - Configure the
LAN parameters" on page 238),
using the Server Configuration Manager (see chapter "Configuring
iRMC S2/S3 using the Server Configuration Manager" on page 347).
