The IMM – Advanced Edition provides multiple additional options for OOB management,
provided regardless of the state of the OS using the GCM NIC.
• SNMP – ability to manage via SNMP gets, sets, and traps.
• KVM (ARSC) – Advanced Remote Server Console providing full access to the managed
server by controlling the redirected Keyboard, Mouse, and Video. Video is compressed and
encrypted.
• Telnet – ability to telnet into the BMC and use commands from the console or a script.
Commands use the CLI syntax (not IPMI syntax). IPMI sessions require password and close
on logout.
• Web Server – HTTP and HTTPS access to the BMC’s web server.
• SMTP Alerts (e-mail) – Provides alerts from the BMC even when the OS is not running.
