ILO offline after mistyping static ip address

We discovered that one of our ILO's had a static ip assigned that belonged to another device.  When setting a new ip for the ILO, it was mis-entered and now the ILO is offline.  I can't figure out a way to access it to correct the ip.

Re: ILO offline after mistyping static ip address

Rabindra - thanks for the info but I cannot access the ILo at all so there is no way to press F9.  I did find an artcle last night saying that by SSH'ing into the composer will allow console access.  Trying that this morning
