CHAPTER 7 Web-UI Operations

The giga-bit switch board (GSWB) is connected to the MMB, which manages the entire server, via the IPMB over LAN method. It provides a unique switch configuration function in addition to the standard functions defined in the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) through IPMI messages.

The Web user interface (Web-UI) is normally used for GSWB operations. However, the command line interface (CLI) such as a telnet connection or other connection can also be used.
