9.2.3.3.3 IPMI over LAN (BASE)
The IPMI over LAN interface uses the BASE Ethernet controller to do firmware upgrades. The
interface has to be configured before the first use. Configuring this interface is described in
Configuring SOL Parameters on page 224 .
Example (with RMCP+):
prompt->ipmitool -C 1 -I lanplus -U rmcp -P rmcp -H 172.16.0.221 -
k gkey hpm upgrade /root/bios.hpm activate
9.2.4 HPM.2 Specific Firmware Updates
To improve the time for firmware upgrades, the IPMC is complaint to the HPM.2 specification
and supports large IPMI messages over LAN interfaces (via base interface and from payload
host). Thus, firmware upgrades can be executed much faster. This is especially useful with BIOS
firmware upgrades when 16 Mbytes of data need to be transferred via IPMI.
Make sure that your firmware upgrade tool (fcu, ipmitool) need to support large IPMI
messages over LAN as well.
The following example is provided to enable users to upgrade their firmware very fast from the
payload host (one BIOS SPI flash can be upgraded in ~3 minutes).
1. Evaluate IP address of IPMC.
root@ATCA7480:~# ipmitool lan print 1
