Refer to the Cisco Technical Tips Conventions for more information on document conventions. Network DiagramĪ typical Cisco UCS topology is similar to this network diagram: If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration.
The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. The information in this document is based on the Cisco Unified Computing System. Refer to the Network Diagram for a typical solution. Understand the impact and implications of the different commands described in this document.īe familiar with the UCS components and topology. Have a working knowledge of Cisco UCS server blade software and hardware.īe familiar with the UCS management application. This configuration example describes how to configure KVM console access to the blade in the Cisco UCS environment via these methods: Note that these IP addresses need to be externally routable for remote access to the servers via the KVM console. These IP addresses represent the KVM console access.
In order to use the KVM console to access the blade server, a pool of IP addresses is assigned as a management interface into the server blades.
The KVM console service is provided by the blade's BMC and can be accessed via the external IP address only (that is, a pool of external routable addresses). Additionally, once the server profile association is complete, you can access the same KVM console from the Server Profile view as well. This configuration example describes how to access the KVM console from the blade view via the Unified Computing System (UCS) Manager. The KVM console access to server blades in Cisco UCS is conceptually similar to any industry standard KVM console access to the blade. The KVM console is a video over IP representation of the video output on the blade.
