LAN Interface
BMC LAN interface in AST2400 is assigned to its Shared NIC LAN and a dedicated NIC
(Default) in the system. IPMI Specification v2.0 defines how IPMI messages, encapsulated
in RMCP/RMCP+ packet format, can be sent to and from the BMC. This capability allows a
remote console application to access the BMC and perform the following operations:
Chassis control: obtain chassis status, reset and power-up the chassis
Obtain system sensor status
Obtain and Set system boot options
Obtain Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) information
Obtain System Event Log (SEL) entries
Obtain Sensor Data Records (SDR)
Set Platform Event Filtering (PEF)
Set LAN configurations
In addition, the BMC supports LAN alerting in the form of SNMP traps that conform to the
IPMI Platform Event Trap (PET) format.
