Configure the System Intelligent Platform Management Interface
By default, the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) is not activated on the Cisco C880 M4 (Figure 14).
If you want to use this function, you must enable it by configuring it at the command line interface (CLI).
Note:
IPMI is not supported for the MMB IP address. Only the baseboard management controller (BMC) IP
address can be used for the IPMI.
Figure 14.
You can check whether IPMI is enabled by entering the following command:
mgmtsrv01:/tftpboot # ipmitool -I lanplus -U admin -P admin -H 172.23.1.101
power status
Error: Unable to establish IPMI v2 / RMCP+ session
mgmtsrv01:/tftpboot #
To configure IPMI, follow these steps:
1. Set up the BMC IP address by configuring the console redirection IP address (Figure 15).
