LAN
The IPMI LAN Interface on MIC-6311 is accomplished by using a shared LAN Con-
troller together with the x86 system. In addition to systems PCI-Express link, a LAN
controller side-band interface (Network Controller Sideband Interface, short NC-SI) is
connected to the BMC. This NC-SI channel is used by the BMC to receive and trans-
mit IPMI management traffic from and to network with help of the LAN controller.
IPMI over LAN (IOL) uses the Remote Management Control Protocol (RMCP, speci-
fied in IPMI v1.5) in request-response manner for IPMI communication. IPMI v1.5
LAN messages are encapsulated in RMCP packets, while IPMI v2.0 specification
added an enhanced protocol (RMCP+) for transferring IPMI messages and other
types of payloads. RMCP+ uses RMCP overall packet format, but defines exten-
sions, such as encryption and the ability to carry additional traffic types (e.g. serial
data) in addition to IPMI messages (refer to 3.11).
Three of MIC-6311’s Ethernet interfaces can be used for IPMI over LAN:
Both backplane interfaces: Port 0 and 1
The front panel LAN RJ-45 connectors
Following IPMItool parameters are needed to connect to the BMC vial LAN:
ipmitool -I lan -H <IP-Address> -U <User> -P <Password>
<Command>
Command Line Syntax:
I lan
Specifies Ethernet interface
H <IP-Address>
IP address assigned to the BMC
U <User>
User account, default “administrator”
P <Password>
Password used with specified user account (default password
for user “administrator” is “advantech”)

Sensors
Monitoring board voltages and temperatures in one of the main tasks of the BMC
populated on the MIC-6311. All important voltages and temperatures are connected
to the BMC sensor part.
Moreover, the BMC Management Subsystem also registers below logical sensors:
PICMG Hot Swap sensor
BMC Watchdog sensor
FW Progress sensor
Version change sensor
Advantech OEM Sensor: Integrity Sensor

Sensor List
All sensors available on the MIC-6311 Board are listed in the table below (inclusive
FRU Device Locator record):
Note!
The LAN controller used for IPMI communication is connected to the
payload power domain. Thus, the payload needs to be powered, to be
able to use IPMI over LAN.
