2.5.1 Conguring the LAN controller

Before you can establish connection to the ASMB6-iKVM board, you must

congure the LAN port for server management used by the remote server to

connect to the local/central server.

To congure the LAN port of the remote server:

1. Run the ASMC6 utility from the support CD following the instructions in the

previous section.

2. Set IP source:

(a) Type ASMC6 -bmc_ip_source 1 if you want to set a static IP address.

(b) Type ASMC6 -bmc_ip_source 2 if you want to get IP from DHCP server.

3. Type ASMC6 -bmc_ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, then press <Enter> to assign any IP

address to the remote server LAN port (if necessary). The screen displays the

request and response buffer. Write the remote server IP address in a piece of

paper for reference.

c:\>ASMC6 -bmc_ip 10.10.10.243

Detect MotherBoard -> (Z9PE-D16 Series)

Detect KCS Interface

New BMC IP : 10.10.10.243

c:\>

When nished, the utility returns to the DOS prompt.

Make sure that the assigned IP address for both remote and local/central

servers are in the same subnet. You can use the network settings utility in your

OS to check.

4. Congure your (a) subnet mask and (b) gateway address if necessary.

(a) Type ASMC6 -bmc_mask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (your subnet mask encoded in

hexadecimal system)

(b) Type ASMC6 -bmc_gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (your gateway address

encoded in hexadecimal system)

5. Restart the remote server, enter the BIOS setup, then boot from the hard disk

drive.

6. Adjust the local/central server network settings, if necessary.
