You might want to try posting to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list ... I'm another one that uses the dedicated iLO port in the colo, but we have our own switch there also, so ports aren't an issue ...

I'm trying to setup a DL360 G4 for use in a colo environment with
FreeBSD. I've run into one problem: I've setup the iLo to use the
"shared network" option, which allows the iLo to share the same network
interface as the host computer. But the iLo hangs whenever the FreeBSD
kernel loads.

FWIW, we have a bunch of 360s but running the iLo independently from the main
card. They work just great, but never tried them on the other setting.
Beto

I have not had issues when using the dedicated iLo network interface
either. But, when I ship the machine off to the colo, it'll only have
one network drop - so either I get the iLo working in shared mode, or I
don't get to use the iLo at all.

After further testing, i've found that it's the bge driver that's
hanging the iLo in shared network mode. Which makes sense. It looks like
that driver is reading at a low enough level from the hardware that it's
intercepting packets destined for the iLo. So the iLo isn't hanging -
it's just not receiving any traffic after the bge driver gets loaded.
No clue if/how to fix this however.
