in the alert policy table because the destination types and alerts may vary by user. Each entry in
the alert policy table contains four bytes for a maximum table size of 80 bytes.

E-mail Alerting
The Embedded Email Alerting feature allows the user to receive e-mails alerts indicating issues
with the server. This allows e-mail alerting in an OS-absent (for example, Pre-OS and OS-Hung)
situation. This feature provides support for sending e-mail by means of SMTP, the Simple Mail
Transport Protocol as defined in Internet RC 821. The e-mail alert provides a text string that
describes a simple description of the event. SMTP alerting is configured using the embedded
web server.

SM-CLP (SM-CLP Lite)
SMASH refers to Systems Management Architecture for Server Hardware. SMASH is defined
by a suite of specifications, managed by the DMTF, that standardize the manageability
interfaces for server hardware. CLP refers to Command Line Protocol. SM-CLP is defined by
the
Server Management Command Line Protocol Specification (SM-CLP) ver1.0
, which is part
of the SMASH suite of specifications. The specifications and further information on SMASH can
be found at the DMTF website (
http://www.dmtf.org/
).
The BMC provides an embedded “lite” version of SM-CLP that is syntax-compatible but not
considered fully compliant with the DMTF standards.
4.5.3.17
Embedded Web Server
BMC Base manageability provides an embedded web server and an OEM-customizable web
GUI which exposes the manageability features of the BMC base feature set. It is supported
over all on-board NICs that have management connectivity to the BMC as well as an optional
dedicated add-in management NIC. At least two concurrent web sessions from up to two
different users is supported. The embedded web user interface shall support the following
client web browsers:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0*
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0*
Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.0*
Mozilla Firefox 3.0*
Mozilla Firefox 3.5*
Mozilla Firefox 3.6*
The embedded web user interface supports strong security (authentication, encryption, and
firewall support) since it enables remote server configuration and control. Embedded web server
uses ports #80 and #443. The user interface presented by the embedded web user interface
shall authenticate the user before allowing a web session to be initiated. Encryption using 128-
bit SSL is supported. User authentication is based on user id and password.
The GUI presented by the embedded web server authenticates the user before allowing a web
session to be initiated. It presents all functions to all users but grays-out those functions that the
user does not have privilege to execute. (For example, if a user does not have privilege to
power control, then the item shall be displayed in grey-
out font in that user’s UI display). The
web GUI also provides a launch point for some of the advanced features, such as KVM and
media redirection. These features are grayed out in the GUI unless the system has been
updated to support these advanced features.
