-## Server Management
-
-### Requirements
-
-For management purposes, each server must have following two ports
-connected to the management network:
-
-```
-- 1GE IPMI port
-  - IPMI - Intelligent Platform Management Interface.
-  - Required for access to embedded server management with WebUI, CLI, SNMPv3,
-    IPMIv2.0, for firmware (BIOS) and OS updates.
-- 1GE/10GE/40GE management port
-  - hostOS management port for general system management.
-```
-
-### Addressing
-
-Each server has a LOM (Lights-Out-Management e.g. SM IPMI) and a Management
-port, which are connected to two different VLANs.
-
-```
-1. LOM (IPMI) VLAN:
-    - Subnet: 10.30.50.0/24
-    - Gateway: 10.30.50.1
-    - Broadcast: 10.30.50.255
-    - DNS1: 199.204.44.24
-    - DNS2: 199.204.47.54
-2. Management Vlan:
-    - Subnet: 10.30.51.0/24
-    - Gateway: 10.30.51.1
-    - Broadcast: 10.30.51.255
-    - DNS1: 199.204.44.24
-    - DNS2: 199.204.47.54
-```
-
-To access these hosts, VPN connection is required.

-Following naming convention is used within this page to specify physical
-connectivity and wiring across defined CSIT testbeds:
-
-```
-- testbedname: testbedN.
-- hostname:
-    - traffic-generator: tN-tgW.
-    - system-under-testX: tN-sutX.
-- portnames:
-    - tN-tgW-cY/pZ.
-    - tN-sutX-cY/pZ.
-- where:
-    - N - testbed number.
-    - tgW - server acts as traffic-generator with W index.
-    - sutX - server acts as system-under-test with X index.
-    - Y - PCIe slot number denoting a NIC card number within the host.
-    - Z - port number on the NIC card.
