The HP Lights-Out Console (HPLOCONS) provides the full iLO Integrated Remote Console (IRC) experience directly from your Windows desktop without going through the iLO web-based user interface. With the HP Lights-Out Console (sometimes called the Stand-Alone Remote Console) you can access your server’s remote console with one click of the mouse. HPLOCONS has the same functionality as the IRC application that is launched directly from an iLO 3, iLO 4, or iLO 5’s web server.

• After successful installation, run this tool. It will ask for the iLO network address, username, and password.
