Intel® Server Board S2600GZ/GL TPS Platform Management Functional Overview 6.10.16 Data Center Management Interface (DCMI) The DCMI Specification is an emerging standard that is targeted to provide a simplified management interface for Internet Portal Data Center (IPDC) customers. It is expected to become a requirement for server platforms which are targeted for IPDCs. DCMI is an IPMIbased standard that builds upon a set of required IPMI standard commands by adding a set of DCMI-specific IPMI OEM commands. Intel® S1400/S1600/S2400/S2600 Server Platforms will be implementing the mandatory DCMI features in the BMC firmware (DCMI 1.1 Errata 1 compliance). Please refer to DCMI 1.1 errata 1 spec for details. Only mandatory commands will be supported. No support for optional DCMI commands. Optional power management and SEL roll over feature is not supported. DCMI Asset tag will be independent of baseboard FRU asset Tag. Please refer table DCMI Group Extension Commands for more details on DCMI commands. 6.10.17 Lightweight Directory Authentication Protocol (LDAP) The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an application protocol supported by the BMC for the purpose of authentication and authorization. The BMC user connects with an LDAP server for login authentication. This is only supported for non-IPMI logins including the embedded web UI and SM-CLP. IPMI users/passwords and sessions are not supported over LDAP. LDAP can be configured (IP address of LDAP server, port, and so on) from the BMC's Embedded Web UI. LDAP authentication and authorization is supported over the any NIC configured for system management. The BMC uses a standard Open LDAP implementation for Linux. Only open LDAP is supported by BMC. Windows* and Novell* LDAP are not supported. Revision 1.1 75 Intel order number G24881-004
