 +Before Power 10, only one IP address was requested on power servers ASMI to manage it.
 +
 +FIXME Now you have first the eBMC, but before starting a power 10, also add a VMI IP address. ​
 +  default login/​password for eBMC: admin / admin 
 +
 +FIXME **There are no default IP addresses anymore**, to access ASM (eBMC) using a browser. You should use **panel function 30** to what the IP address may be set to. Panel is located in front of the server, you have buttons: up, down and select

 +
 +If you use DHCP on the HMC, the eBMC of Power 10 'll appear into HMC interface. Do not start the Power, first you have to set a password, it's both HMC access and admin password for the eBMC.
 +
 +Before power on the server choose **action**, and **VMI configuration** (IP address), if IP is static, then configure one, else change to DHCP.
 +  Select the same eBMC network interface the HMC is cabled to.
 +  Note that the adapters may list eth1 first, however eth0 is typically used for the first HMC. If 2 HMC are used, both have to be setup
 +
 +//Note// the eBMC port used on the Power 10 system (first (T0) HMC port = eth0, second (T1)HMC port = eth1)
 +
 +If this step is missed, when server is started, you 'll have a connection lost on the HMC !
 +
 +Now you're able to power on.
 +
 +You can either see the power progress on 
 +  * the HMC
 +  * on eBMC web interface connecting as admin, you have **host console**
 +  * using ssh admin@<​eBMC>​ -p 2200
 +
 +FIXME The VMI interfaces share the physical connection of the eBMC ports but have their own IP (DHCP or static)
