c7000 ebipa blade ilo config

[faulkkev]

Is it correct that the ip of the OA and the ebipa ips for the blades and interconnects must be on the same subnet for OA to be able to open up a console? I have tested it both ways and I can manage them if they are all on the same subnet with OA but not if they are different.

When a server blade or interconnect module is inserted into a bay that has EBIPA
enabled, that management port will get the specific static IP address from the Onboard
Administrator if that device is configured for DHCP. This is only possible when they are in the Same Subnet. I dont think otherwise is possible, If so, Ideas are most welcome.

Regards,
James.

thanks I figured so but wanted to make sure as it calls for me to eat up 16 more ip's off our utility network per say.
