Dell EMC iDRAC Service Module Security Configuration Guide

Configuring local authentication sources

The iDRAC Service Module (iSM) does not support configuring any external authenticating sources such as Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). Below are the iSM features that use a username password for the relevant functionality.

  • Route iDRAC SNMP alerts by the host operating system. This feature on Linux operating systems supports alert forwarding over the SMUX protocol. The administrator can create a password for the SMUX protocol using the following interface:
    /opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin/Enable-iDRACSNMPTrap.sh changesmuxpasswd <password>
  • The iSM feature InbandSNMPGet allows administrators to perform an SNMP Get and Walk of the iDRAC supported MIB by the host operating system. This feature creates an SNMP v3 user in iDRAC in ReadOnly mode. The username is iSMSNMPv3.
