Not sure which manufactures hardware you are using and I'm
no expert but....
For Dell equipment eth0 and the BMC for the IMPI have
seperate MAC addresses (using Intel NIC chipset) and thus you can not use the
same IP for IPMI and the regular system. Internaly there are two
NIC's on the wire and each has it's own MAC and thus needs to have it's own
unique IP for anything else to find it. Your upstream switch will get very
confused if you use the same IP for both devices, it is jsut like configuring
two servers wit hthe same IP. Also using the Intel chipset is it possible
to have the eth0 NIC on one vlan and the BMC/IPMI interface on a seperate vlan
if vlan tagging is enabled.
