Hi, I don't know if it can help for your use case, but foreman manage BMC ifaces and there is a snippet to configure it at provisioning time (https://github.com/theforeman/community-templates/blob/develop/provisioning_templates/snippet/bmc_nic_setup.erb) We use it to configure IPMI ifaces on our Dell servers. If you configure a BMC iface in foreman, maybe you can use these infos (user/password) too establish the VNC connection.
Have a nice day. Cheers. ----- Le 30 Oct 17, à 19:16, Sean O'Keeffe <sokee...@redhat.com> a écrit : > I imagine the the API will require authentication.
