SNMP

The SNMP is part of the TCP/IP protocol suit developed to manage servers on an IP network. SNMP enables you to manage network performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth.

SMASH

Server Management Architecture for Server Hardware (SMASH) is an initiative by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) that encompasses specifications (Server Management CLP, SM ME Addressing, SM Profiles) that address the interoperable manageability requirements of small to large scale heterogeneous computer environments.

SM CLP

The SM CLP specification defines a user friendly command-line protocol that provides command line interface (CLI) standards for interoperability.

Mirrored Console

The system console output stream is reflected to all connected console users, and any user can provide input.

Remote Power Control

The iLO 2 MP enables remote power cycle, power on and power off, and TOC. It also provides options to reset the system, the BMC, or iLO 2 MP.

Event Logging

The iLO 2 MP provides event logging, display, and keyword search of console history and system events.

Advanced Features

The iLO 2 MP advanced features provide additional functionality such as the graphical integrated remote console and virtual media. In addition, the advanced features increase security by integrating iLO 2 MP user administration with the Active Directory or eDirectory.

The advanced features require the iLO 2 MP Advanced Pack license. See “Advanced Pack License” (page 23).

NOTE: A HP ProLiant iLO 2 Advanced Pack license key will not work on an HP Integrity server, and vice versa.

iLO 2 MP advanced features include the iLO 2 MP standard features and the following features:

Virtual Media

Virtual Media (vMedia) enables connection of client-based USB CD and DVD devices and disk image files as virtual devices on the server, and requires the vMedia right and the Java plug-in version 1.4.2_10 and above.

IRC

The IRC provides a remote console on Windows clients running the Internet Explorer browser to HP Integrity-based Windows servers. It combines virtual keyboard, video, and mouse (vKVM).

Directory-Based Secure Authorization Using LDAP

The directory-based authentication and authorization option enables iLO 2 MP user accounts to be defined in a centralized database on an LDAP server. iLO 2 MP users are authenticated when
