Editing HP iLO features

iLO makes it possible to perform activities on an HP server from a remote location.  The iLO card has a separate network connection (and its own IP address) to which one can connect via [[Https|HTTPS]].  Possible options are:

* Reset the server (in case the server doesn't respond anymore via the network card)
* Power-up the server (possible to do this from a remote location, even if the server is shut down)
* Remote [[system console]] (in some cases however an 'Advanced license' may be required for some of the utilities to work)
* Mount remote physical [[CD]]/[[DVD]] drive or image (virtual media), ([[iLO Advanced]] license required)
* Access the server's Integrated Management Log (IML)
* Can be manipulated remotely through XML-based Remote Insight Board Command Language (RIBCL)
* Full command-line interface support through RS-232 port (shared with system), though the inability to enter function keys prevents certain operations
* SSH remote network access to iLO card supporting public key authentication, 1024 bit DSA key<ref>https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=a00018323en_us</ref>,<ref>https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-a00045401en_us&docLocale=en_US</ref> at least since iLO 3

* Two factor authentication<ref>https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-a00043385en_us&docLocale=en_US</ref>
* Remote [[syslog]]<ref>https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docLocale=en_US&docId=emr_na-a00026111en_us#N10F31</ref> (iLO Advanced license required)
* Email bases alerting ([[iLO Advanced]] license required)


iLO provides some other utilities virtual power and a remote console.  iLO is either embedded on the system board, or available as a PCI card.
