iDRAC 8 - Verifying credentials

Question

Hi,

We are trying to connect to the PowerEdge R330 Server remotely via iDRAC 8 using Google Chrome (IE 11) and after entering user name and password it get stuck to "Verifying credentials"

We have tested iDRAC connection remotely while server was in our testing environment and that worked fine, so I am wondering what could be the problem now (when nodes are on the two different networks).

I would really appreciated help on this as we would need quiet urgently to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance

Hello

You can review ports, security, and browser requirements in the release notes and manuals. If you need to access the iDRAC remotely then I suggest you use a local management station. It is best practice to have the iDRAC on a management VLAN that is restricted access. I would not suggest making the iDRAC directly availabe on the WAN.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for reply.

What do you mean by local management station?

Currently we are trying to access the node via iDRAC on the node that is on the WAN but suppose we can ask for this to be restricted or removed as it is not really required.

HI,

We can try to delete the browser cache (if you do not want to retain your browser cache) and check again by opening the iDRAC IP with the same chrome browser.

In Chrome

On your computer, open Chrome.
At the top right, click More
Click More tools Clear browsing data.
At the top, choose a time range. To delete everything, select All time.
Next to "Cookies and other site data" and "Cached images and files," check the boxes.
Click Clear data.
