> Ssh the DRAC, not the OS

We have vpn  access to the server, not iDrac.
I tried ssh from server itself to iDrac but it doesn't work, no
answer, even telnetting the http port gives no answer when originating
from the server itself.
We have basic iDrac with no dedicated NIC, it seems the iDrac will
recognize outside traffic to its IP and take it, but not traffic
coming from the server itself.

=====
So, in the end,  because of a change in Dell Tech support (they cannot
read DSET output anymore), the level of support they can provide us
decreased substantially.

1) We have to produce the support bundle from another PC, because
racamd won't work due to license issue

2) Also, we have to update firmware/bios from Linux command line (as
we always did) because if we try to do that from the iDrac web
interface (the same used to produce the support bundle) we get
System Alert : LIC501: A required license is missing or expired.
Obtain an appropriate license then try again. If the problem persists,
contact technical support. Refer to your product documentation to
choose the contact method that is convenient for you

So, there's no way to use a single channel to do what Dell support
will ask us to do, we have to use command line for updating, and web
for support bundle.
Really not user friendly.

Thanks for your suggestions.
