must be up and running before the iLO 2 Management Port is powered on, and the iLO 2 ManagementPort must have a valid route to the WINS or DDNS server.In addition, the iLO 2 Management Port must be configured with the IP address of the WINS or DDNSserver. You can use DHCP to configure the DHCP server with the necessary IP addresses. You can alsoenter the IP addresses through RBSU or by selecting Network Settings on the Administration tab. TheiLO 2 Management Port must be configured to register with either a WINS server or DDNS server. Theseoptions are turned on as factory defaults and can be changed through RBSU or by selecting theNetwork Settings option on the Administration tab.The clients used to access the iLO 2 Management Port must be configured to use the same DDNS serverwhere the IP address of the iLO 2 Management Port was registered.If you are using a WINS server and a non-dynamic DNS server, the access to the iLO 2 Management Portmight be significantly faster if you configure the DNS server to use the WINS server for name resolution.Refer to the appropriate Microsoft® documentation for more information.iLO 2 RBSU unavailable after iLO 2 and server resetIf the iLO 2 processor is reset and the server is immediately reset, there is a small chance that the iLO 2firmware will not be fully initialized when the server performs its initialization and attempts to invoke theiLO 2 RBSU. In this case, the iLO 2 RBSU will be unavailable or the iLO 2 Option ROM code will beskipped altogether. If this happens, reset the server a second time. To avoid this issue, wait a few secondsbefore resetting the server after resetting the iLO 2 processor.Inability to access the login pageIf you cannot access the login page, you must verify the SSL encryption level of your browser is set to 128bits. The SSL encryption level in iLO 2 is set to 128 bits and cannot be changed. The browser and iLO 2encryption levels must be the same.Inability to access iLO 2 using telnetIf you cannot access iLO 2 using telnet, you must verify the Remote Console Port Configuration andRemote Console Data Encryption on the Global Settings screen. If Remote Console Port Configuration isset to Automatic, the Remote Console applet enables port 23, starts a session, and then closes port 23when the session is completed. Telnet cannot automatically enable port 23, so it fails.Inability to access virtual media or graphical remote consoleVirtual media and graphical Remote Console are only enabled by licensing the optional iLO AdvancedPack. A message is displayed to inform the user that the features are not available without a license.Although up to 10 users are allowed to log into iLO 2, only one user can access the remote console. Awarning message is displayed indicating that the Remote Console is already in use.Inability to connect to iLO 2 after changing network settingsVerify that both sides of the connection, the NIC and the switch, have the same settings for transceiverspeed autoselect, speed, and duplex. For example, if one side is autoselecting the connection, then theother side should as well. The settings for the iLO 2 NIC are controlled in the Network Settings screen.Inability to connect to the iLO 2 Diagnostic PortIf you cannot connect to the iLO 2 Diagnostic Port through the NIC, be aware of the following:Troubleshooting iLO 2 158
