2 Setting up a Moonshot System

Overview

The default settings enable you to use most features without additional configuration. However, the configuration flexibility of iLO CM firmware enables customization for multiple enterprise environments. This chapter references the initial iLO CM setup steps.

Complete the initial setup steps:

1.Install the Moonshot System in a data center.

For more information, see the HP Moonshot 1500 Chassis Setup and Installation Guide available at http://www.hp.com/go/moonshot/docs.

2.Connect the Moonshot System to a network.

For more information, see “Connecting the Moonshot System to a network” (page 8).

3.If you are not using dynamic IP addressing, configure a static IP address. For more information, see “Managing network settings” (page 48).

4.Set up your local user accounts.

For more information, see “Managing iLO CM firmware user accounts” (page 41).

Connecting the Moonshot System to a network

You can connect the Moonshot System to the following networks:

•Data center management network

•Data center production network

Data center management network

To connect the chassis to a management network, connect an Ethernet cable from the Moonshot 1500 CM module to the management network. Always connect to the iLO CM management port first. Do not connect both the iLO CM management port and the iLO CM link port to the same network switch. For information about enabling the iLO link port using the set network daisy command, see the HP Moonshot iLO Chassis Management CLI User Guide in the HP Moonshot Information Library (http://www.hp.com/go/moonshot/docs).

Moonshot iLO CM firmware SSH sessions and switch SSH sessions share connectivity through the iLO CM management port. The iLO CM management port is located on the Moonshot 1500 CM module on the rear of the chassis.

8Setting up a Moonshot System

Data center production network

To connect the chassis to a production network, connect to any available SFP+ or QSFP+ port. The SFP+/QSFP+ ports are located on the uplink module installed in the rear of the chassis.

•Moonshot-6SFP Uplink Module

•Moonshot 4QSFP+ Uplink Module

Connecting the Moonshot System to a network

9

Setting up Moonshot by using the Moonshot iLO CM firmware web interface

You can use the iLO CM firmware web interface to configure the Moonshot System if you can connect to the web interface on the network with a web browser.

Access the iLO CM firmware web interface from a remote network client by using a supported browser to access the hostname and then entering a user name and password.

Logging in to the iLO CM firmware web interface for the first time

The iLO CM firmware web interface is configured with a default user name and password. Use these values to access the web interface remotely from a network client through a web browser.

The default values follow:

•User name—Administrator

•Password—password

•DNS name—The pre-set DNS information uses the serial number located on a label attached to the chassis that contains the Moonshot 1500 CM module

In a DHCP environment, the serial number is registered as the host/DNS name with the DNS server on boot. Enter the serial number from the label together with the domain name into a browser address bar (in an HTTPS session) to access the iLO CM firmware web interface. For example, if the serial number is iLOCM1234 and your domain is domain.com, then enter https://ilocm1234.domain.com into the address bar of a supported browser.

Alternatively, use the DNS name (serial number) to determine the IP address using standard network tools.

If you enter an incorrect user name and password, or a login attempt fails, the web interface imposes a security delay.

IMPORTANT: HP recommends changing the default Administrator password after you log in to web interface for the first time. For instructions, see “Managing iLO CM firmware user accounts” (page 41).

If you reset Moonshot 1500 CM module to the factory default settings, use the default account information to log in after the reset.
