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. 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), depends on license.
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^[1],^[2] at least since iLO 3
iLO Federation^[3]
Two factor authentication^[4]
Remote syslog^[5], depends on license.

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.
