Intel®Server Board S1200BT TPS Platform Management Alerts that signify fault conditions that should be recorded in the system SEL will be sent to the Integrated BMC by the ME using the IPMI Platform Event Message command. The Integrated BMC deposits such events into the SEL. The external software must configure the Integrated BMC's PEF and alerting features to then send that event out as an IPMI LAN alert, directed to the software application over the LAN link. Alerts that provide useful notification to the external software for NM management, but do not represent significant fault conditions that need to be put into the SEL, will be sent to the Integrated BMC using the IPMI Alert Immediate command. This requires that the external software application provide the NM on the ME with the alert destination and alert string information needed to properly form and send the alert. The external software must first properly configure the alert destination and string in the Integrated BMC LAN configuration using standard IPMI commands, then provide the associated selectors to the Integrated BMC using the ―Set Node Manager Alert Destination‖ OEM command. 4.4.3.2 BIOS-Integreated BMC-ME Communication In this generation of platforms, the BIOS communicates directly with the ME via HECI.
