Configure iDRAC6 Users

Set up the local iDRAC6 users and permissions. iDRAC6 holds a table of
sixteen local users in firmware. You can set usernames, passwords, and roles
for these users.
NOTE:
<, >, and \ are not allowed in usernames or passwords.

NOTE:
When using iDRAC6 in an Active Directory environment, the user names you
create must conform to the Active Directory naming convention in force.
Configure Active Directory
In addition to the local iDRAC6 users, you can use Microsoft
®
Directory to authenticate iDRAC6 user logins.
For more information, see "Using iDRAC6 With Microsoft Active Directory."
NOTE:
When using iDRAC6 in an Active Directory environment, be sure your user
names conform to the Active Directory naming convention in force.
Configure IP Filtering and IP Blocking
In addition to user authentication, you can prevent unauthorized access by
rejecting connection attempts from IP addresses outside of a defined range
and by temporarily blocking connections from IP addresses where
authentication has failed multiple times within a configurable timespan.
