The Web Browser-based McRAID Storage Manager can be accessed 

through the In-Band PCI-X/PCIe bus or Out-of-Band Lan port. 

The In-Band method uses the ArcHttp proxy server to launch the 

McRAID Storage Manager. The Out-of-Band method allows local or 

remote to access the McRAID Storage Manager from any standard 

internet browser via a LAN or WAN with no software or patches 

required.

Controller with onboard Lan port, you can directly plug an 

Ethernet cable to the controller Lan port, then enter the McBIOS 

management to configure the network setting. After network 

setting configured and saved, you can find the current IP address 

in the System Information page.
