Supported Action — ReInitiateAutoDiscovery

Description

The ReInitiateAutoDiscovery() method is used for reinitiating the discovery and handshake with static IP configuration. If the method successfully executes, iDRAC is in the static IP mode after the auto-discovery is initiated and thus, does not require DHCP setup. The static IP information for auto-discovery can be set either through the optional input parameters of this method or through the iDRAC attributes in the iDRAC Card Profile. After the successful auto-discovery initiation, if the IPAddress parameter has non-NULL value, the iDRAC IPv4 address is set to that parameter's value, otherwise the iDRAC IPv4 Address is set to the Address attribute in the IPv4 Information group in the iDRAC Card Profile. After the successful auto-discovery initiation, if the Mask parameter has a non-NULL value, the iDRAC IPv4 address net mask is set to that parameter's value, otherwise the iDRAC IPv4 address net mask is set to the to the Netmask attribute in the IPv4 Information group in the iDRAC Card Profile. After the successful auto-discovery initiation, if the Gateway parameter has non-NULL value, then the iDRAC IPv4 gateway address is set to that parameter's value, otherwise the iDRAC IPv4 gateway is set to the to the Gateway attribute in the IPv4 Information group in the iDRAC Card Profile. After the successful auto-discovery initiation, if the DNS parameter has non-NULL value, then the iDRAC IPv4 DNS address is set to that parameter's value, otherwise the iDRAC IPv4 DNS address is set to the to the DNS1 attribute in the IPv4 Information group in the iDRAC Card Profile. After the successful auto-discovery initiation, if the Domain parameter has non-NULL value, then the iDRAC domain name is set to that parameter's value, otherwise the iDRAC domain name is set to the to the DNSDomainName attribute in the NIC Information group in the iDRAC Card Profile.
