Enter a name for your asset that identifies it when you create a cluster.
提示You can view the

content updates as you enter the information in the console by setting the YAML switch to ON.- Enter the namespace where you want to create the bare metal asset. Users who have access to this namespace can associate this asset to the cluster when creating a cluster.
Enter the Baseboard Management Conroller address. This is the controller that enables communication with the host. The following protocols are supported:
- IPMI, see IPMI 2.0 Specification for more information.
- iDRAC, see Support for Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 9 (iDRAC9) for more information.
- iRMC, see Data Sheet: FUJITSU Software ServerView Suite integrated Remote Management Controller - iRMC S5 for more information.
- Redfish, see Redfish specification for more information.
- Enter the user name and password for the bare metal asset.
- Add the boot NIC MAC address for the bare metal asset. This is the MAC address of the host’s network-connected NIC that is used to provision the host on the bare metal asset.
