Configure OpenManage Enterprise

About this task

If you are logging in to OpenManage Enterprise for the first time, the Welcome to OpenManage Enterprise page is displayed, which allows setting of time (either manually or using NTP time synchronization) and proxy configurations.

Steps

  1. To configure the time manually do the following in the Time Configuration section:
    • Use the Timezone drop down menu to select an appropriate Timezone.
    • In the Date box, enter or select a date.
    • In the Time box, fill the time.
    • Click Apply to save the settings.
  2. If you want to use the NTP Server for time synchronization, do the following in the Time Configuration section:
    NOTE When the NTP Server settings are updated, the currently logged in users are automatically logged out from their OpenManage Enterprise sessions.
    • Select the Use NTP check box.
    • Enter the IP address or hostname in Primary NTP Server Address and Secondary NTP Server Address (optional) for time synchronization
  3. If you want to set proxy server for external communication, In the Proxy Configuration section do the following:
    • Select the Enable HTTP Proxy Settings check box.
    • Enter the Proxy Address.
    • Enter the Port number for the proxy server.
    • If the proxy server requires credentials to log in, select the Enable Proxy Authentication check box and enter the user name and password.
    • Select the Ignore Certificate Validation check box if the configured proxy intercepts SSL traffic and does not use a trusted third-party certificate. Using this option will ignore the built-in certificate checks used for the warranty and catalog synchronization.
    • In the Proxy Exclusion list box, you can enter the IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses or domain names of the device(s) that can bypass the proxy server and directly access the appliance.
  4. Click Apply to save the settings.
    NOTE For information about supported browsers, see the OpenManage Enterprise Support Matrix available on the support site.
