If a server is present in the slot, turn it off before enabling the FlexAddress feature on that slot.

To enable or disable fabric and slots to use the FlexAddress feature using the CMC Web interface:

  1. In the left pane, click Server Overview > Setup > FlexAddress. .
  2. On the Deploy FlexAddress page, in the Select Fabrics for Chassis-Assigned WWN/MACs section, select the fabric type ( Fabric-A or iDRAC) to which you want to enable FlexAddress. To disable, clear the option.
  3. On the Select Slots for Chassis-Assigned WWN/MACs page, select the Enabled option for the slot to which you want to enable FlexAddress. To disable, clear the option.
    • NOTE: Note the following:
      • If a slot is not selected, FlexAddress is not enabled for the selected fabric.

      • When none of the fabrics are selected and a server slot is selected and applied, the following message is displayed No fabrics selected! FlexAddress will not be used on this chassis. Select both the fabric and the slot to successfully configure FlexAddress.

      • Configuring Flexaddress for slave slot is not allowed. The option is greyed out in the CMC Web interface. The Ethernet devices associated with the slave slot of the server, inherits the master slot configuration.
