2 Hardware and software support For the most current BMC update information, see the S5200-ON Series Release Notes. For more information about the intelligent platform management interface (IPMI), see the IPMI resources that is hosted by Intel at https:// www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/servers/ipmi/ipmi-technical-resources.html. Required drivers In Linux, the baseboard management controller (BMC) uses the ipmitool open-source tool during testing. To configure or get data from the BMC, ipmitool sends ipmi commands to the BMC. You must have the IPMI driver installed to use ipmitool. To access ipmitools, go to https://sourceforge.net, search for ipmitools, then select the See Project button. NOTE: Although there are newer versions available, the ipmitool and driver versions used during testing the BMC are: • Linux version: 4.9.30 • ipmitool version: 1.8.18 • ipmi driver that the ipmitool uses is built with kernel 4.9.30. BMC access Access BMC through the network interface from a remote machine. Use ipmitool for host and remote access. • LAN interface-ipmitool is the standard tool to access BMC over the network. A dummy static IP address is preprogrammed in the BMC. You can change this dummy static IP address of the network interface using ipmitool from the microprocessor console: - # ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr 6 Hardware and software support
