Chapter 2. Opening and using the IMM Web interface The IMM combines service processor functions, a video controller, and remote presence function (when an optional virtual media key is installed) in a single chip. To access the IMM remotely by using the IMM Web interface, you must first log in. This chapter describes the login procedures and the actions that you can perform from the IMM Web interface. Accessing the IMM Web interface The IMM supports both static and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) IP addressing. The default static IP address assigned to the IMM is 192.168.70.125. The IMM is initially configured to attempt to obtain an address from a DHCP server, and if it cannot, it uses the static IP address. The IMM provides the choice of using a dedicated systems-management network connection or one that is shared with the server. The default connection for rack-mounted and tower servers is to use the dedicated systems-management network connector. Setting up the IMM network connection through the Server Firmware Setup Utility After you start the server, you can use the Setup Utility to select an IMM network connection. The server with the IMM hardware must be connected to a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, or the server network must be configured to use the IMM static IP address. To set up the IMM network connection through the Setup Utility, complete the following steps: 1. Turn on the server. Note: Approximately 2 minutes after the server is connected to ac power, the power-control button becomes active. The welcome screen is displayed. 2. When the prompt Setup is displayed, press F1. If you have set both a power-on password and an administrator password, you must type the administrator password to access the full Setup Utility menu. 3. From the Setup Utility main menu, select System Settings. 4. On the next screen, select Integrated Management Module. 5. On the next screen, select Network Configuration. 6. Highlight DHCP Control. There are three IMM network connection choices in the DHCP Control field: v Static IP v DHCP Enabled v DHCP with Failover (default) 7. Select one of the network connection choices. © Lenovo 2009.
