Users Guide

• Server-assigned, chassis-assigned, or remotely assigned MAC addresses.
To view the Flex Address information in iDRAC, configure and enable the Flex Address feature in Chassis Management Controller (CMC).
For more information, see the Dell Chassis Management Controller User Guide available at dell.com/support/manuals. Any existing
Virtual Console or Virtual Media session terminates if the FlexAddress setting is enabled or disabled.
NOTE: To avoid errors that may lead to an inability to turn on the managed system, you must have the correct type of
mezzanine card installed for each port and fabric connection.
The FlexAddress feature replaces the server–assigned MAC addresses with chassis–assigned MAC addresses and is implemented for
iDRAC along with blade LOMs, mezzanine cards and I/O modules. The iDRAC FlexAddress feature supports preservation of slot specific
MAC address for iDRACs in a chassis. The chassis–assigned MAC address is stored in CMC non–volatile memory and is sent to iDRAC
during an iDRAC boot or when CMC FlexAddress is enabled.
If CMC enables chassis–assigned MAC addresses, iDRAC displays the MAC address on any of the following pages:
• Overview > Server > Properties Details > iDRAC Information.
• Overview > Server > Properties WWN/MAC.
• Overview > iDRAC Settings > Properties iDRAC Information > Current Network Settings.
• Overview > iDRAC Settings > Network > Network Settings.
CAUTION: With FlexAddress enabled, if you switch from a server–assigned MAC address to a chassis–assigned MAC
address and vice–versa, iDRAC IP address also changes.
