Enabling Ipmi LAN Access

This section contains three alternate procedures; two in-band procedures, and one out-of-band procedure. Use the procedure that corresponds to your OS:

■“Enabling IPMI LAN Access on a Linux-Based Server (In-Band)” on page 17

■“Enabling IPMI LAN Access on a Solaris-Based x86 Server (In-Band)” on page 18

■“Alternate Method for Enabling IPMI LAN Access (Out-of-Band)” on page 18

Enabling IPMI LAN Access on a Linux-Based Server (In-Band)

1.If the server is powered off, boot the local OS.

2.Log in to the server and authenticate as the user root.

3.Load the OpenIPMI kernel device driver (as installed in Part III, Step 3).

#modprobe ipmi_kcs_drv

4.Using IPMItool, configure the network setting for the SP.

Note – For more information on the syntax for IPMItool commands, refer to “Syntax” on page 30.

#ipmitool -I open lan set 6 ipaddr ipaddr

#ipmitool -I open lan set 6 netmask netmask

#ipmitool -I open lan set 6 defgw ipaddr gwipaddr

#ipmitool -I open lan set 6 password ipmipasswd
