Early in 2001, I was tasked with qualifying and testing RILOE cards in our environment here. Soon after product qualification, my company started ordering Compaq Remote Lights Out Edition Cards (RILOE) for our proliant family of servers. RILOE's are a PCI based Board designed by Compaq intended to provide remote server manageability from any network client using a standard web browser. The RILOE board provides keyboard, mouse, network, power, and video capability for a server regardless of the state of the host operating system or host server. In order for one to completely understand RILOE's, I believe it's very important for me to cover all aspects of the card. In this paper I will outline the components of the RILOE, detailed features and functionality of the card, pre installation tips, physical installation instructions, physical setup instructions, and initial setup configuration perameters. These sections prelude the most important part of this paper which is securing the RILOE.
