Getting Started After Deployment

After the Dell EMC Cloud for Microsoft Azure Stack Hub deployment is complete, see the Dell EMC Azure Stack Deployment Workbook.

This workbook contains the overall status of your deployment and the location of the key components. It includes detailed information about the networks that are permitted to manage the system, the management IPs, and the credentials to use to log in. To find this information, review the following sections.

Permitted networks

For all installations, you can directly connect to the Dell EMC MGMT and OpenManage Enterprise virtual machines using any protocol from any network that is routable to the Azure Stack Hub environment.

Also, during the design stage, you must define a list of permitted networks that allow access to the switch management interfaces, HLH operating system, and HLH iDRAC. To verify what networks are added to the ACLs; go to the Scale Unit (SA) tab and go to the Permitted Network Addresses section, as shown in the following figure:

Figure 1.              Permitted Networks Addresses

If you have not defined the permitted networks, you can only access the devices through the MGMT virtual machine.

IP assignments

To obtain the IP addresses necessary to manage the Azure Stack Hub, select the IP Assignments tab. See the following table and go to the appropriate section and item to find the device IP that you require.

For example, to find the Switch - BMC management interface IP, go to the Rack01-SwitchMgmt section, and then look for the Gateway item, as shown in the following figure:

Credentials

To obtain the credentials that were used during the setup of your system, see the Credentials tab, as shown in the following figure:

For details on how to rotate these credentials, see Chapter 6: Credential Management.
