HP Z600 Implementing Out-Of-Band Desktop Management with DASH - Page 14

Connecting to the HP Client Management Web View The following steps outline connecting to the out-of-band management service from the embedded web server included on the Broadcom NetXtreme™ Ethernet Gigabit Plus controller. This interface provides an alternative control mechanism for utilizing the DASH functionality without requiring a DASH enabled management console. These steps assume that both of the following preconditions have been met:  The DASH management functionality has been enabled both in BIOS on the Broadcom NetXtreme™ Gigabit Ethernet Plus controller.  The user account to connect as has been configured with a password for authentication.  And the user account has been enabled for use. Steps to enable and configure DASH in an automatable fashion via Windows® Management Instrumentation (WMI) are covered in the section Enabling DASH Support. Additional discussions for configuring options manually are covered in Appendix B: Enabling Management Functionality with Computer Setup and Appendix C: Enabling Management Functionality with BMCC and BACS. 1. Using your web browser of choice from a separate computer system, connect to the IP address and DASH management port of the remote system. DASH Management Ports TCP Port Purpose 623 WS-Man over HTTP 664 WS-Man over HTTPS Example URL http://172.16.2.17:623 https://172.16.2.17:664 These are the well-known IANA ports reserved for DASH management traffic. By default the Broadcom NetXtreme™ Gigabit Ethernet Plus controller will use these ports for DASH traffic, but the device can be configured to either disallow HTTP traffic, or use other TCP ports for communication. 2. The web browser makes a connection to the HP Client management Web View, but will require authentication to grant access to the web page.
