Determining the Physical iLO 3 MP Access Method Before you can access the iLO 3 MP, you must first determine the correct physical connection method. The iLO 3 MP has a separate LAN port from the system LAN port. It requires a separate LAN drop, IP address, and networking information from that of the port used by the operating system. See Figure 1-10 (page 21) for rear panel console connection port identification and cable connection information. Table 2-6 lists the appropriate connection method, required connection components, and connectors to the host console. Use Table 2-6 to determine your physical connection method.

Preparation
You must perform the following tasks before you can configure the iLO 3 MP LAN.
Determine the physical access method to select and connect cables.
Determine the iLO 3 MP LAN configuration method and assign an IP address if necessary.
Determining the Physical iLO 3 MP Access Method
Before you can access the iLO 3 MP, you must first determine the correct physical connection
method. The iLO 3 MP has a separate LAN port from the system LAN port. It requires a separate
LAN drop, IP address, and networking information from that of the port used by the operating
system. See
Figure 1-10 (page 21)
for rear panel console connection port identification and cable
connection information.
Table 2-6
lists the appropriate connection method, required connection components, and
connectors to the host console. Use
Table 2-6
to determine your physical connection method.
