There is a basic networking mistake in your configuration. Your default gateway MUST be on the same subnet as the IP of the interface.
Think about it, how would the machine know how to get to a IP not on it's own network. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Federico Tomassini Sent: Friday, November 30, 2007 8:50 AM To: ipmitool-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Ipmitool-devel] lan problems on hp -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi alls, I explored ipmitool (1.8.9) from one week, using it on a hp machine. ipmitool works well with the "open" interface, ie locally. But when I try to perform some command via lan/lanplus, I cannot get it working. First, the bmc info: # ## ### ~# ipmitool -I open bmc info Device ID : 0 Device Revision : 3 Firmware Revision : 1.0 IPMI Version : 1.5 Manufacturer ID : 3973 Manufacturer Name : Unknown (0xf85) Product ID : 0 (0x0000) Device Available : yes Provides Device SDRs : no Additional Device Support : Sensor Device SDR Repository Device SEL Device FRU Inventory Device IPMB Event Receiver Bridge Chassis Device Aux Firmware Rev Info : 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 ### ## # The lan channel is the channel 2: # ## ### ~# ipmitool -I open lan print 2 Auth Type Support : NONE MD5 PASSWORD Auth Type Enable : Callback : NONE MD5 PASSWORD : User : NONE MD5 PASSWORD : Operator : NONE MD5 PASSWORD : Admin : NONE MD5 PASSWORD : OEM : NONE MD5 PASSWORD IP Address Source : Static Address IP Address : 10.0.2.245 Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0 MAC Address : 00:15:60:ed:dd:62 SNMP Community String : public Default Gateway IP : 194.183.95.254 Cipher Suite Priv Max : Not Available ### ## # I configured the channel with bmclanconf (but also with ipmitool directly). bmclanconf hangs 20-30 seconds when "Setting channel authentication capabilities" and after that, it prints a warning: # ## ### ~# bmclanconf -c 2 -i eth1 Auto-configuring eth1 (channel 2) Setting LAN IP Address to 10.0.2.245 Setting LAN Subnet Mask to 255.255.255.0 Setting LAN MAC Address to 00:15:60:ed:da:cf Setting LAN Default Gateway IP to 194.183.95.254 Setting LAN Default Gateway MAC to 00:10:58:5b:cd:d5 Setting channel authentication capabilities LAN Parameter Data does not match!
