idrac6 question

Quick question on the R710 we just got. the idrac card, I see it works over the current nic cards, which is totally cool. How do I remote kvm through the card like we use to do on the drac5 cards? I dont see that option when I use the web browser to get into the server.

Hey Joseph, do you have an enterprise idrac6? I found this in in the readme.

"NOTE: iDRAC6 - Enterprise is required to support dedicated NIC, Virtual KVM,
Virtual Media, Virtual Flash (with an optional Dell vFlash Media card),
and RACADM functionality."

I'm in the same boat. What say you Dell, how do we get our kvm through the card now???

With the iDRAC6 enterprise version you also get a separate nic port on the back of the server.

See 13 on the back view here:
