X: Exit Connection This example shows the MP Main Menu accessed through the local serial port. The list of commands displayed on the screen can be different depending on the method of access to the iLO 3 MP. When logging in using the local or remote RS-232 serial ports, the login prompt may not display if another user is logged in through these ports. Use Ctrl-B to access the MP Main Menu and the iLO 3 MP MP> prompt. Additional setup Modifying user accounts and default password The iLO 3 MP comes preconfigured with default factory settings, including a default user account and password. The two default user accounts at initial login are: • All Rights (Administrator) level user: login = Administrator password = Randomly generated password found on the iLO Network Information Tag on the server IMPORTANT: For security reasons, HP strongly recommends that you modify the default settings during the initial login session. To modify default account configuration settings, follow these steps: 1. log on as the administrator. You must log on as the administrator in order to modify default user configuration settings. 2. To modify default passwords: a. Access the MP Main Menu. b. Enter CM at the MP> prompt. c. Enter UC at the MP:CM> prompt and follow the prompts to modify default passwords. 3. To set up user accounts: a. Access the MP Main Menu. b. Enter CM at the MP> prompt. c. Enter UC at the MP:CM> prompt and follow the prompts to modify user accounts. Setting up security For greater security and reliability, HP recommends that iLO 3 MP management traffic be on a separate dedicated management network and that only administrators be granted access to that network. This not only improves performance by reducing traffic load across the main network, it also acts as the first line of defense against security attacks. A separate network enables administrators to physically control which workstations are connected to the network. HP also strongly recommends that you modify the default settings during the initial login session and determine the security access required and what user accounts and privileges are needed. Create local accounts or use directory services to control user access. See "Modifying user accounts and default password" (page 51) for more information. Connecting and setting up the console 51
