Dmitry,
Thanks for the explanation. In our case we use Sun's v20z boxes which
has the service processors out side the actual hardware and the processor,
we have separate network card for the service processor. Will this case you
mentioned applies here also?
Thanks,
Kishore

For out-of-band interface packets sent to the BMC (UDP port 623) are
intercepted on entrance by the network card and routed to the BMC
in hardware. They didn't reach operating system. So for out-of-band
communication to work You need to send packets from _outside_ of the
machine.
Try to use in-band interface, e.g "ipmitool -I open".
