Federico, It sounds like it is time to call HP support to find out if this Aelita Software BMC on the HP DL 140 really supports IPMI 1.5 LAN, or just some non-standard subset of that. If it does, then HP must know what the configuration tricks are to set it up.

It seems that each way has been explored, both on eth0 end eth1 ifaces: - setting a third IP for the BMC - sharing IP with the NIC - etc. etc. I'm wondering: is it possible that something is missing from the kernel? to avoid possible doubts, I activated *all* under IPMI, Hardware Monitoring Support and I2C. The unique clues I can report are the following errors: ~# ipmitool -v -I open lan print 2 Get LAN Parameter 'Set in Progress' command failed: Unknown (0x80) 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 : 194.183.88.235 Subnet Mask : 255.255.248.0 MAC Address : 00:15:60:ed:dd:62 SNMP Community String : public Get LAN Parameter 'IP Header' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Get LAN Parameter 'BMC ARP Control' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Get LAN Parameter 'Gratituous ARP Intrvl' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Default Gateway IP : 194.183.95.254 Get LAN Parameter 'Default Gateway MAC' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Get LAN Parameter 'Backup Gateway IP' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Get LAN Parameter 'Backup Gateway MAC' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Get LAN Parameter '802.1q VLAN ID' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Get LAN Parameter '802.1q VLAN Priority' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Get LAN Parameter 'RMCP+ Cipher Suite Count' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Get LAN Parameter 'Cipher Suite Priv Max' command failed: Unknown (0x80) Cipher Suite Priv Max : Not Available - -- federico -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHVqZei7obm7aBjHcRAlMNAJsEUmADFc+ilfbM/af8Yb+OER33gQCghEHy zEFd/sqGD7CwqSI3FqotII4= =hGv5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
