Sanjay, Thanks for the details, there are several things wrong: 1) The alert destination and policy did not get set. There are several of the IPMI LAN settings that have to be configured locally (not while actually using the IPMI LAN :-). So, try running this locally: "pefconfig -e -I 10.0.100.218 -S 255.255.0.0 -G 10.0.0.2 -A 10.0.0.73" This will configure the PEF Alert destination and enable the Policy.
2) You have a PEF table entry for Power Redundancy Lost, but not specifically for Power Unit on/off. This should still cause a PEF alert though, if you have two power supplies. Check the SEL to afterward to see if a Power Redundancy Lost event occurred or not. 3) Your "Auth Type Enables" parameter looks wrong (disabled) for all but channel 3. Running pefconfig locally, as above, will fix this. 4) The default gateway MAC is empty, so no Alerts can get out. The -G parameter from step one above will allow pefconfig to find the gateway MAC from its IP address. It uses arping to do find the MAC, and defaults to eth0 to do that. If you do not have eth0 configured on this LAN, then add something like "-i eth1" to step 1 above. That should do it. Pefconfig will find reasonable defaults for the LAN parameters that are needed, if you run it locally.

I used "pefconfig" util to populate the PEF table entries, but still I am unable to receive the PETraps for power off/on events or in general trap for any IPMI events. Though I have set the lan alert destination and the "alert immediate" IPMI command is working and its traps are also being received. It seems that the PEF Alert Policy is not getting populated. I am using " ./pefconfig -F lan2 -N ipmi -U "" -P "ab1234" -r -A 10.0.0.73" command to configure PEF, and, " ./ipmitool -I lanp -H 10.0.100.218 -U "" -P "ab1234" -C 0 -o intelplus event "Pwr Unit Stat" "Power off/down" assert" command to generate an IPMI event. What is the correct way to configure the BMC for sending out Lan alerts? Am I missing someting here?
