C IP Addresses on a Corporate Network

Use this method if you have access to the corporate network and a DHCP server providing IP addresses. In order to use this process, the iLOs must be set to DHCP enabled.

C.1 Cabling

1.Power off the enclosure.

2.Connect the RJ45 CAT5 patch cable from the OA1 interface port to port 24 of the GigE switch. (Figure C-1) See Figure 1-3 (page 12) for the exact location of the interconnect switch. (Callout 2.)

Figure C-1 Interconnect Switch

The following list describes the callouts in Figure C-1:

1.Port 20 RJ-45 connector for 10/100/1000 Mb uplink

2.Port 21 RJ-45 connector for 10/100/1000 Mb uplink

3.Port 22 RJ-45 connector for 10/100/1000 Mb uplink

4.Port 23 RJ-45 connector for 10/100/1000 Mb uplink

5.Port 24 RJ-45 connector for 10/100/1000 Mb uplink

3.Connect port 21 of the GigE switch to the corporate network.

C.2 IP Addresses

1.Extend the Insight Display Panel.

2.Power on the enclosure and wait for the display to show a network address other than 0.0.0.0. It changes to an address on the corporate network obtained from the DHCP server.
