  • Patent number: 7953827
    Abstract: Network addresses are dynamically allocated to blade information handling systems supported by a blade chassis having plural blade slots. A network address seed stored in memory associated with the blade chassis is retrieved by a management controller of a blade information handling system and applied by a network address generator to local network address information to generate a network address. The generated network address is applied by the management controller to a network component of the blade information handling system to establish communications over a network. For example, a WWN generated from a blade chassis seed address provides a blade information handling system host bus adapter access to a storage area network for boot from SAN support for the blade information handling system.
