iDRAC 8 NIC/Port Sharing
Hello,
I have a R630 with iDRAC 8 Enterprise here.
Unfortunaltey I misscounted the network devices and forgot to include iDRAC.
Is it possible to use only one network cable to connect the R630 and have both OS and iDRAC working through it?
iDRAC also has work when the server is off.

Ck_Coke,
You can share the ports. If you boot to the Lifecycle Controller (F10 on startup) then you will select the following ; SYSTEM SETUP - then select Advanced Hardware Configuration - iDrac Settings - Network. Then you can change the NIC SELECTION to reflect LOM 1-4, for whichever port you would like to share the traffic with.
Let me know if this helps.
