Table 3-4 ARP Ping Commands ARP Command arp -s ping Description Assigns the IP address to the iLO MP MAC address. This ARP table entry maps the MAC address of the iLO MP LAN interface to the static IP address designated for that interface. Tests network connections and verifies that the iLO MP LAN port is configured with the appropriate IP address. The following procedure explains how to use the ARP Ping utility using a PC that is connected to the network that is on the same physical subnet as the server. To configure a static IP address using the ARP Ping utility, follow these steps: 1. Obtain the iLO MP MAC address. To set the IP address using ARP, you must know the MAC address of the iLO MP LAN. You can find the MAC address of the iLO MP LAN on a label on the server. IMPORTANT: Make sure you obtain the MAC address to the iLO MP LAN and not the MAC address to the server core LAN. 2. Verify that an active LAN cable on the local subnet is connected to the iLO MP LAN port on the server. 3. Access a PC on the same physical subnet as the server. 4. Open a DOS window on the PC. 5. At the DOS prompt, enter arp -s to assign the IP address to the iLO MAC address. Syntax arp -s Example from Windows arp -s 192.0.2.1 00-00-0c-07-ac-00 6. At the DOS prompt, enter ping followed by the IP address to verify that the iLO MP LAN port is configured with the appropriate IP address. The destination address is the IP address that is mapped to the iLO MAC address. Perform this task from the PC that has the ARP table entry. Syntax ping Example from Windows ping 192.0.2.1 7. Use this IP address to connect to the iLO MP LAN. 8. Use web or telnet access to connect to the iLO MP from a host on the local subnet and complete the rest of the LAN parameter (gateway, subnet). Configuring the iLO MP LAN Using the Console Serial Port To configure the iLO MP LAN using the Console serial port (RS-232), follow these steps: IMPORTANT: Do not configure duplicate IP addresses on different servers within the same network. The duplicate server IP addresses conflict and the server cannot connect to the network. The LC command enables you to configure a static IP address, host name, subnet mask, and gateway address. 34 Setting Up and Connecting the Console

Table 3-4 ARP Ping Commands
Description
ARP Command
Assigns the IP address to the iLO MP MAC address. This ARP table entry maps the MAC
address of the iLO MP LAN interface to the static IP address designated for that interface.
arp -s
Tests network connections and verifies that the iLO MP LAN port is configured with the
appropriate IP address.
ping
The following procedure explains how to use the ARP Ping utility using a PC that is connected
to the network that is on the same physical subnet as the server.
To configure a static IP address using the ARP Ping utility, follow these steps:
1.
Obtain the iLO MP MAC address. To set the IP address using ARP, you must know the
MAC address of the iLO MP LAN. You can find the MAC address of the iLO MP LAN on
a label on the server.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure you obtain the MAC address to the iLO MP LAN and not the
MAC address to the server core LAN.
2.
Verify that an active LAN cable on the local subnet is connected to the iLO MP LAN port
on the server.
3.
Access a PC on the same physical subnet as the server.
4.
Open a DOS window on the PC.
5.
At the DOS prompt, enter
arp -s
to assign the IP address to the iLO MAC address.
Syntax
arp -s
<
IP address you want to assign to the iLO MAC address
><
iLO MAC address
>
Example from Windows
arp -s 192.0.2.1 00-00-0c-07-ac-00
6.
At the DOS prompt, enter
ping
followed by the IP address to verify that the iLO MP LAN
port is configured with the appropriate IP address. The destination address is the IP address
that is mapped to the iLO MAC address. Perform this task from the PC that has the ARP
table entry.
Syntax
ping
<
IP address just assigned to the iLO MAC address
>
Example from Windows
ping 192.0.2.1
7.
Use this IP address to connect to the iLO MP LAN.
8.
Use web or telnet access to connect to the iLO MP from a host on the local subnet and
complete the rest of the LAN parameter (gateway, subnet).
Configuring the iLO MP LAN Using the Console Serial Port
To configure the iLO MP LAN using the Console serial port (RS-232), follow these steps:
IMPORTANT:
Do not configure duplicate IP addresses on different servers within the same
network. The duplicate server IP addresses conflict and the server cannot connect to the network.
The
LC
command enables you to configure a static IP address, host name, subnet mask, and
gateway address.
