Introduction

This section introduces the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) and includes the requirements for web-based graphical user interface (GUI), keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM), and virtual media.

BMC Key Features and Functions

The following lists the supported features of the BMC:

• Support for IPMI v1.5 and v2.0

• Out-of-band monitoring and control for server management over LAN

• Dedicate NIC for remote management

• FRU information report, which includes main board part number, product name, manufacturer, etc.

• Health status/hardware monitoring report

• View and clear event logs.

• Event notification by lighting chassis LED indicator and Platform Event Tra p ( PET )

• Platform Event Filtering (PEF) to take selected action for selected events including NMI

• Chassis management, which includes power control, status report, front panel buttons, and LEDs control

• Watchdog and auto server re-start and recovery

• Support for multi-session user and alert destination for LAN channel

Using the Web UI

The BMC firmware features an embedded web server, enabling users to connect to the BMC using an Internet browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer) without needing to install KVM and virtual storage software on a remote console.

Web-based GUI is supported on the following browsers:

Microsoft Windows:

• Internet Explorer 6, 7 or later

• Mozilla Firefox 2.0 or later

Page 6

Linux:

• Mozilla Firefox 2.0 or later

NOTE: Before using the web user interface, ensure that the firewall settings are

configured to enable access to the following ports: 7578 (KVM), 5120, and 5123 (storage).

Logging in to the Web User Interface

Enter the IP address or URL (default DHCP\static IP address) into the address bar of the web browser.

When connecting to the BMC, the login screen prompts for the username and password. This authentication with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protection prevents unauthorized intruders from gaining access to the BMC web server. Once authentication is passed, you can manage the server by privilege.

Table 1-1. Default User Name And Password

Field Default

User Name root

Password root

NOTE: The default username and password are in lowercase characters. It is

advised to change the root password once you have logged in.

Update BMC Firmware Through UI

NOTE: Before beginning the firmware update, download the latest firmware

version and save it on your local system. During the process of firmware update, the AC power of the managed system cannot be unplugged and the Web GUI cannot be closed.

NOTE: Once you enter into Update Mode and choose to cancel the firmware flash

operation, the BMC must be reset. This means that you must close the Internet browser and log back onto the BMC card before you can perform any other types of operations.

Page 12

Select the Enter Update Mode button from the Maintenance tab to put the device in a special mode that allows firmware update. You can now follow the instructions presented below to successfully update the card’s firmware. The device resets if update is cancelled. The device also resets upon successful completion of firmware update.

Browse to, or enter the path on your system where the firmware image file resides.

Example:

C:\Updates\V1.0\<image_name>

The default firmware image name is s2gv number).

Select if you want the BMC to auto reset after the update.

Click

Update Firmware

The update might take several minutes. When the update is completed, a dialog box appears.

Click OK to close the session and automatically log out.

After the BMC resets, click

Front Panel User Interface

The BMC provides control panel interface functionality including indicators (fault, status, and ID LEDs) and buttons (power/ID).

Power Button

The power button turns the device on and off.

ID Button

The control panel Chassis Identify button toggles the state of the Chassis ID LED. If the ID LED is off, pressing the button turns the LED on (blinking). If the LED is on, pressing the button or an IPMI Chassis Identify command turns the LED off.

LEDs

BMC Heartbeat LED

The green LED provides an easy way to indicate that BMC is now enabled.

ID LED

A blinking LED indicates the Chassis Identify command has been accepted.

Item Description

Set Mode to Absolute Option

Set Mode to Relative Option

Apply Button Use this button to make the settings active.

Select this option to select mouse mode to Absolute, depending upon your system. This mode enables you to see two mouse cursors where, one is the redirected host mouse cursor and the other is the actual local mouse cursor. It is recommended to use this mode when the host server is running in the Windows platform.

Select this option to select mouse mode to Relative, depending upon your system. In this mode, the user can see only one mouse cursor that is redirected. This mode locks the local mouse cursor inside the redirected window and the user has to press <Alt+M> to unlock and stop mouse redirection. Here <Alt+M> is basically used to start or stop mouse redirection. It is recommended to use this mouse mode when the host server is running in Linux and other OS platforms.

VLAN Configuration

The VLAN is confiugred through the IPMI Set/Get LAN Configuration command.

To configure the VLAN:

Get VLAN ID :

>ipmitool -H <BMC IP Address> -I lanplus -U root -P root raw 0x0C 0x02 0x01 0x14 0x00 0x00

>11 00 00

Enable and Set VLAN ID :

>ipmitool -H <BMC IP Address> -I lanplus -U root -P root raw 0x0C 0x01 0x01 0x14 0x02 0x80



VLAN is disabled/VLAN ID is zero.

Disable VLAN ID :

>ipmitool -H <BMC IP Address> -I lanplus -U root -P root raw 0x0C 0x01 0x01 0x14 0x00 0x00

BMC Version Information

The BMC firmware version can be obtained by using the IPMI - Get Device ID command.

To get the BMC firmware version:
