hi

you can start by rebooting your server
press F8 when integrated lights out comes up during POST and configure the IP settings and user

If you have dhcp on your network, ilo tries to acquire an ip-adress from it.
from there it also tries to register witch dns and wins.

with them system with integrated management interface (ilo) there is tag with information about:
- default hostname (derved from mac-adress)
- username
- password
if the external tag is lost, there is a copy inside the system under the cover.

If you don't have dhcp, do as Karlo sugested to configure the ip-adress (and hostname) manually.

in your browser open http://
and fill in username and password.

After this add other users and change the default password.

For some ilo-functions you need to fill in a license key (ilo advanced pak ordered separately).
