Service settings

You can configure the following settings in the Service section on the Access Settings page.

Secure Shell (SSH)

Allows you to enable or disable the SSH feature.

SSH provides encrypted access to the iLO CLP.

Secure Shell (SSH) Port

Sets the SSH port. The default value is 22.

Web Server

Allows you to enable or disable access through the iLO web server.

If you set this value to disabled, iLO will not listen for communication on the Web Server Non-SSL Port or the Web Server SSL port. The following features will not work when the web server is disabled: RIBCL, iLO RESTful API, remote console, iLO Federation, and the iLO web interface.

When this option is disabled, the configured Web Server Non-SSL Port (HTTP) and Web Server SSL Port (HTTPS) are not detected in a security audit that uses a port scanner to scan for security vulnerabilities.

Web Server Non-SSL Port (HTTP)

Sets the HTTP port. The default value is 80.

Web Server SSL Port (HTTPS)

Sets the HTTPS port. The default value is 443.

Remote Console

Allows you to enable or disable access through the iLO remote consoles.

When this option is disabled, the HTML5 IRC, .NET IRC, Java IRC, standalone remote console, and text-based remote console are disabled. The configured remote console port is not detected in a security audit that uses a port scanner to scan for security vulnerabilities.

Remote Console Port

Sets the remote console port. The default value is 17990.

Virtual Media

Allows you to enable or disable the iLO Virtual Media feature.

When this option is disabled, local and URL-based Virtual Media features are disabled. The configured Virtual Media port is not detected in a security audit that uses a port scanner to scan for security vulnerabilities.

Virtual Media Port

The port that iLO uses to listen for incoming local Virtual Media connections. The default value is 17988.

SNMP

Specifies whether iLO responds to external SNMP requests.

If you disable SNMP access, iLO continues to operate, and the information displayed in the iLO web interface is updated. In this state, no alerts are generated and SNMP access is not permitted.

When SNMP access is disabled, most of the boxes on the SNMP Settings page are unavailable and will not accept input.

SNMP Port

Sets the SNMP port. The industry-standard (default) SNMP port is 161 for SNMP access.

If you customize the SNMP Port value, some SNMP clients might not work correctly with iLO unless those clients support the use of a nonstandard SNMP port.

SNMP Trap Port

Sets the SNMP trap port. The industry-standard (default) SNMP trap port is 162 for SNMP alerts (or traps).

If you customize the SNMP Trap Port , some SNMP monitoring applications might not work correctly with iLO unless those applications support the use of a nonstandard SNMP trap port.

To use SNMP v3 with HPE SIM 7.2 or later, change the SNMP Trap Port value to 50005.

IPMI/DCMI over LAN

Allows you to send industry-standard IPMI and DCMI commands over the LAN.

This setting is disabled by default.

When IPMI/DCMI over LAN is disabled, iLO disables IPMI/DCMI over the LAN. Server-side IPMI/DCMI applications are still functional when this feature is disabled.

When IPMI/DCMI over LAN is enabled, iLO allows you to use a client-side application to send IPMI/DCMI commands over the LAN.

When IPMI/DCMI over LAN is disabled, the configured IPMI/DCMI over LAN Port is not detected in a security audit that uses a port scanner to scan for security vulnerabilities.

IPMI/DCMI over LAN Port

Sets the IPMI/DCMI port number. The default value is 623.
