NOTICE: The system management module and the network switch module(s) are DHCP-
enabled. If you have a DHCP server on your network, the server will provide a dynamic IP
address to the modules and will permit configuration by way of the network. Steps 6 and 7 are
not required unless you need to configure a static IP address.
Configure the system management module IP address and time using the serial port
6
on the management module. See "Using Remote Access Features."
Assign IP addresses to the network switch modules using the serial port on the system
7
management module. See "Using the Network Switch Module."
Use the Dell OpenManage Server Assistant CD to load an operating system (if an
8
operating system has not been installed) and to configure drivers. See "Using the Dell
OpenManage Server Assistant CD" in the User's Guide.
To create an image of the server module, use Dell OpenManage™ Remote Install to
9
duplicate the server module's configuration. Use the Dell OpenManage Systems
Management CD to install the systems management software, including Remote
Install software.

Using Remote Access Features

You can initially configure the system management module and the network switch module
using the serial port on the system management module, a client system, and a serial null
modem cable. Initial configuration allows you to configure a static IP address on the system
management and network switch modules. The system management module serial port
provides a command-line interface to configure features on the network switch module and
remote access features. The Ethernet interface provides system management access by way
of a browser-based graphical user interface (GUI). You can assign IP addresses to each
switch by using the remote access features. Assign an IP address to a server module using
the operating system. See the operating system documentation for more information. See
Figure 1-3 for detailed information on the system management module, which includes the
remote access features and the onboard KVM.
NOTE: Do not configure the system management module and the network switch
module on the same subnet.
