Hi, Using Remote Management cards of any kind should only occur on a Trusted Network. So my first reaction is to avoid a situation like this where ever possible. Where it must happen then I would suggest strongly that rather than opening the DRAC up to a specific IP address over the Internet that you look at implementing a VPN solution. The Cost and Complexity of this being determined by the importance to the Data on your system. Good Luck _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
