Dell iDRAC7 User Manual page 130

At least one of the three addresses is required to be configured. iDRAC7 attempts to connect to each of the
configured addresses one-by-one until it makes a successful connection. With Standard Schema, these are the
addresses of the domain controllers where the user accounts and the role groups are located.
The Global Catalog server is only required for standard schema when the user accounts and role groups are in
different domains. In multiple domain case, only the Universal Group can be used.
The FQDN or IP address that you specify in this field should match the Subject or Subject Alternative Name
field of your domain controller certificate if you have certificate validation enabled.
If you want to disable the certificate validation during SSL handshake, enter the following RACADM command:
– Using config command: racadm config -g cfgActiveDirectory -o
cfgADCertValidationEnable 0
– Using set command: racadm set iDRAC.ActiveDirectory.CertValidationEnable 0
In this case, no Certificate Authority (CA) certificate needs to be uploaded.
To enforce the certificate validation during SSL handshake (optional):
– Using config command: racadm config -g cfgActiveDirectory -o
cfgADCertValidationEnable 1
– Using set command: racadm set iDRAC.ActiveDirectory.CertValidationEnable 1
In this case, you must upload the CA certificate using the following RACADM command:
racadm sslcertupload -t 0x2 -f <ADS root CA certificate>
NOTE: If certificate validation is enabled, specify the Domain Controller Server addresses and the Global
Catalog FQDN. Make sure that DNS is configured correctly under Overview → iDRAC Settings → Network.
Using the following RACADM command may be optional.
racadm sslcertdownload -t 0x1 -f <RAC SSL certificate>
2. If DHCP is enabled on iDRAC7 and you want to use the DNS provided by the DHCP server, enter the following
RACADM commands:
– Using config command: racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServersFromDHCP
1
– Using set command: racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DNSFromDHCP 1
3. If DHCP is disabled on iDRAC7 or you want manually input the DNS IP address, enter the following RACADM
commands:
– Using config command:
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServersFromDHCP 0
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServer1 <primary DNS IP
address>
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServer2 <secondary DNS IP
address>
– Using set command:
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DNSFromDHCP 0
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DNSFromDHCP.DNS1 <primary DNS IP address>
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DNSFromDHCP.DNS2 <secondary DNS IP address>
4. If you want to configure a list of user domains so that you only need to enter the user name when logging in to the
Web interface, enter the following command:
– Using config command: racadm config -g cfgUserDomain -o cfgUserDomainName <fully
qualified domain name or IP Address of the domain controller> -i <index>
– Using set command: racadm set iDRAC.UserDomain.<index>.Name <fully qualified
domain name or IP Address of the domain controller>
