Deployment Wizard - Step 3: Server Identification

Server identification can be provided in two ways:
  • Enter networking information (IP address, subnet mask and gateway); a fully-qualified domain name for the hostname is optional.
  • Use the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to configure IP addresses, subnet mask, gateway IP, hostname and preferred/alternate DNS servers.

Tasks

To identify one or more servers manually:
  1. Enter networking information (IP address, subnet mask, gateway IP address) and select the NIC for management tasks - the hostname and DNS server information is optional.
  2. Select the Apply settings to all selected servers check box to apply the subnet mask, gateway IP address and DNS server information to all selected servers.
To identify one or more servers automatically:
  1. Select the NIC for management tasks and select the Obtain using DHCP check box.
  2. Select the Apply settings to all selected servers check box to assign identities to all servers using DHCP.
