Three things to check:
Is the IPMI LAN channel enabled?
Is the admin user enabled for the LAN channel?
Is the BMC IPMI 1.5 or IPMI 2.0?

Subject: [Ipmitool-devel] IPMI Unable to ping
Hi
I set IPMI up in RedHat 4 and now I am trying it in RedHat5 (with
different machines). I can set mac, ip, etc using ipmitool but I can't
access it from outside. It won't ping and if I do:
#ipmitool chassis power status -I lanplus -U ADMIN -P ADMIN -H
10.2.12.124
Error: Unable to establish IPMI v2 / RMCP+ session
Unable to get Chassis Power Status.
Here is my setting:

This is the exact setting from my previous IPMI card. It has no problem
pinging (of course not from itself). I checked ip and mac address of the
NIC but they are different. I looked at BIOS, and it looks like my older
IPMI servers.
Am I missing something?
Oh here is HWs that I am using:
Supermicro H8DA3-2 with AOC-SIMLC
Supermicro H8DMU+ with AOC-SIMSO
Unfortunately, using old IPMI card on new board isn't an option (won't
fit).
Thx
