To setup a iDRAC with a static ip address, you can use the following commands from the Dell server:
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicIpAddress 10.0.0.1
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicGateway 10.0.0.254
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicNetmask 255.255.255.0
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicUseDHCP 0
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServersFromDHCP 0
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServer1 10.0.0.100
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServer2 10.0.0.101
racadm racreset
It is not necessary to do a reset of the idrac (last command).
To configure it for a remote server use:
racadm -r <ip address or hostname> -u <username> -p <password> <subcommand>
