Press F2 on the initial screen and type in the username and password. The main use case for this method of access is the initial setup or management access troubleshooting. The console is accessed by connecting a monitor and keyboard to ESXi host or by using out-of-band vendor-specific management options provided by the server, such as HP ILO or DELL DRAC. There is a limited number of things you can do with the network configuration via DCUI. Target-state topology Console Configuration (DCUI) The end state that we will achieve as the result of configuration steps in this article is shown in Figure 3. Starting topologyĪt this stage, the ESXi host has a single virtual switch, a single VM port group for virtual machines and a single VMKernel port for management. We will change this port to tag traffic in the next section.
It is set up as an access port in VLAN 4, meaning that there will be no 802.1q tagged frames crossing this interface. Figure 2 shows the switch port configuration. Let’s assume that we’ve connected physical cables and enabled only a single port on the upstream switch. The starting topology is a newly installed ESXi host with 6 physical adapters.
