Abstract
Embodiments provide secure discovery of a first IHS operating within a plurality of IHSs (Information Handling Systems), such as within a data center, by a remote management tool. The remote management tool is registered with a DNS (Domain Name System). Upon initializing a first IHS, that first IHS is not automatically recognized by the remote management tool. A remote access controller of the first IHS retrieves information from the registration of the remote management tool from the DNS. The remote access controller notifies the remote management tool of the initialized first IHS. The notification is transmitted, by the remote access controller, to a network address specified in the DNS registration information of the remote management tool. The remote management tool confirms the authenticity of the notification provided by the remote access controller and configures the first IHS for remote management.
