• TMM (also known as BMC) and Intelligent Platform Management Interface
(IPMI) 2.0
The system board platform management subsystem is based on the
integrated TMM features. The TMM is a management chip that is
integrated on the system board of your server. With the TMM, no matter
what condition the server operating system is in and no matter if the server
is on or off, as long as the server is connected to network and an ac power
source, the interaction with the TMM-controlled servers can be achieved
through system network. The user can obtain the server hardware health
information and system event log (SEL), and is able to conduct the
operations including turning on or off the server, restarting the server, and
so on. This part of server management is independent of the operating
system and is called out-of-band management.
The system board platform management subsystem consists of the
integrated TMM, communication buses, sensors, the BIOS, and server
management firmware. The subsystem is responsible for error reporting,
system power control, thermal monitoring, system fan control, and other
management features. The TMM provides system management and
monitoring features based on the IPMI 2.0 specification. IPMI helps lower
the overall costs of server management. For more information about IPMI
2.0, go to the Intel Web site at:
https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/servers/ipmi/ipmi-home.html
The TMM also supports some non-IPMI features, such as the Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and the Platform Environment Control
Interface (PECI), to provide more system management functions.
You can find the default user name, password, and other information for
the TMM in the
