Most of the policies and configurations are assigned to servers by assigning those policies and configurations to service profiles associated with physical servers. There are a few global policies and configurations for UCS infrastructure that are not assigned to servers but are necessary for proper functioning of all the components.
These policies and configurations include the following:
Chassis/FEX Discovery Policy
Rack Server Discovery Policy
Rack Management Connection Policy
Power Policy
MAC Address Table Aging Policy
DNS Server
Time Zone Management
SNMP configuration
These policies and settings are configured under various navigation pane tabs. We will now look into the configuration of each of these.
