To configure the LAN port of the remote server: 1. Run the ASMC5 utility from the support CD following the instructions in the previous section. Set IP source: (a) Type ASMC5 -bmc_ip_source 1 if you want to set a static IP address. 3. Type ASMC5 -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:\>ASMC5 -bmc_ip 10. 10. 10. 243 Detect MotherBoard -> (P8B-E Series) Detect KCS Interface New BMC IP : 10. 10. 10. 243 c:\> (b) Type ASMC5 -bmc_ip_source 2 if you want to get IP from DHCP server. When finished, 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. (a) Type ASMC5 -bmc_mask xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx (your subnet mask encoded in hexadecimal system) (b) Type ASMC5 -bmc_gateway xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx (your gateway address encoded in hexadecimal system) Configure your (a) subnet mask and (b) gateway address if necessary. 5. 6. Restart the remote server, enter the BIOS setup, then boot from the hard disk drive. Adjust the local/central server network settings, if necessary. ASUS ASMB5-iKVM 2-13 2. 5. 2 Configuring the user name and password You may change your user name and password from the ASMC5 utility. To change the user name and password: 1. When the C:> prompt appears, type ASMC5 -user_name xxxxx, then press <Enter> to change the user name. C:\>ASMC5 -user_name super Detect MotherBoard -> (P8B-E Series) Detect KCS Interface Change User Name to super C:\> Follow steps 1-5 on page 2-11. 3. 4. Type ASMC5 -user_password xxxxxxxx, then press <Enter> to change the password. Restart the remote server, enter the BIOS setup, then boot from the hard disk drive. 2-14 Chapter 2: Installation 2. 6 Software installation You can monitor, control, or manage the remote server from the local/central server using the ASUS Remote Console (ARC). The ARC is a web-based application available from the support CD that came with theASMB5-iKVM package. You must install the ARC on the local/central server to access the remote server. Before you install the ARC: · · For SNMP Service: View the Platform Event Trap (PET) information. For Microsoft® ActiveSync: Enable the SMS feature. See page 3-15 for details. 2. 6. 1 1.
