Figure 6 shows the two implementations available for the DL 100-series G6 servers. Figure 6. LO100i sideband architecture for DL00-series G6 servers System Network Port Port Embedded 2 Port Intel NIC Full speed sideband G6 DL100 series LO100i Shared NIC DL100 G6 Configuration The system NIC ports are shared with LO100i for management. System Network Port Port Management Network Optional Dedicated NIC Embedded 2 Port Intel NIC LO100i G6 DL100 series Dedicated NIC DL100 G6 Configuration A management network can be employed by adding an optional dedicated NIC via a mezzanine card. The management network is physically separated from the system network. Figure 7 indicates that the ML100-series G6 and DL120 G6 servers have a dedicated Ethernet management port. This port cannot be used by the system network. Figure 7. LO100i sideband architecture for ML100-series G6 servers and the DL120 G6 System Network Port Embedded NIC Limited speed sideband LO100i ML100 G6 series/DL120 G6 Shared ML100 G6 & DL120 G6 Configuration A limited speed shared network configuration can be used for LO100 Standard features. LO100 Advanced features, including Graphic Remote Console and Virtual Media, are not supported in shared network mode System Network Management Network Port Dedicated NIC Embedded NIC LO100i ML100 G6 series/DL120 G6 Dedicated NIC ML100 G6 & DL120 G6 Configuration The ML100 series G6/DL120 G6 ships with a dedicated NIC port for management. This NIC port can be connected to the system network, or to a separate management network. Virtual KVM and Virtual Media, are supported in dedicated NIC configurations. 22
