Hello,

I wish this maillist is the right place to ask... Sorry I haven't
found any user or support maillist related.

Actually I was trying to make BMC sending alerts over LAN to a
snmptrapd host. According to Figure 17-2, Event Filter, Alert Policy,
and Alert Destination, & String Relationships from IPMIv2_0rev1_0.pdf,
the related BMC configuration should be those for event filter table,
alert policy table, and lan settings.

I found the event filter table (pef) was already populated(see
ipmitool pef list). Then I configured lan settings by "ipmitool lan
alert set <channel> <destination> <param> <value>". Anyway, I failed
to find any means to set alert policy, which in my case is empty. That
might be the problem, I blindly generated a test event by "ipmitool
event 1" and get no packets except ARP ones on snmptrapd host.

Any advice?

The configuration directives:

# ipmitool lan alert set 1 0 ipaddr 1.2.3.4 # snmptrapd host
# ipmitool lan alert set 1 0 gateway  # configured. and snmptrapd is
in the same segment 1.2.3.x
# ipmitool lan alert set 1 0 ack on
# ipmitool lan alert set 1 0 type pet
# ipmitool lan alert set 1 0 time

# ipmitool lan alert print
Alert Destination       : 0
