For information on PCIe adapter or drive configuration and numbering, see Front drive and PCIe adapter configuration.

3 Dedicated XCC management connector (1 Gb RJ45)
Note

  • It is recommended to use SMM3 Ethernet port as the default dedicated management network. If required to use node front Ethernet port as dedicated management network, refer to XCC user guide for network configuration instructions.

  • When using LXPM to set XCC network connection, make sure to assign unique IP addresses to Ethernet Port 1 and Ethernet Port 2. Ethernet Port 1 IP address goes to the Ethernet port on SMM3, and Ethernet Port 2 IP address goes to dedicated XCC management connector on the front of the node. (UEFI setup page only supports setting XCC network connection to the Ethernet port on SMM3.)
