132 IBM System x3850 X6 and x3950 X6 Planning and Implementation Guide5.1 Configuring the IMM2 settingsFor any successful server implementation, you should provide access to performtroubleshooting or routine maintenance. The x3850 X6 and x3950 X6 servers ship standardwith the Integrated Management Module (IMM2). The IMM2 is a separate, independentservice processor that is running as long as the server is plugged into a power source. TheIMM2 monitors the hardware components of the server for potential hardware faults.This section describes the following topics: 5.1.1, “IMM2 virtual presence” on page 132 5.1.2, “IMM2 network access” on page 133 5.1.3, “Configuring the IMM2 network interface” on page 134 5.1.4, “IMM2 dedicated versus shared ML2 Ethernet port” on page 135 5.1.5, “x3950 X6 IMM2 communication” on page 136 5.1.6, “IMM2 communications troubleshooting” on page 137 5.1.7, “IMM2 functions to diagnose and manage the server” on page 1375.1.1 IMM2 virtual presenceThe IMM2 provides a virtual presence capability for remote server management capabilities.It provides remote server management through industry-standard interfaces: Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) Version 2.0 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Version 3 Common Information Model (CIM) Web browser (Supported browsers include: Internet Explorer 8 and higher, Firefox 3.6 andhigher, Chrome 13 and higher)The remote presence provides the following functions: Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600x1200 at 75 Hz with up to 23bits per pixel colors, regardless of the system state Remotely accessing the server using the keyboard and mouse from a remote client Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, andmapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by theserver. Uploading a diskette image to the IMM2 memory and mapping it to the server as a virtualdrive
