try the below command

[$] ipmitool lan print

It provides MACAddress and IP related information.

Subject:        [Ipmitool-devel] Retrieving NIC information for iLO 3-based HP
            ProLiant DL360 G7



Hi there,

has anyone used ipmitool to retrieve the MAC addresses of the NICs in
an HP ProLiant DL360 G7 running HP's iLO 3? iLO 3 supports IPMI 2.0
via LAN and I can query it just fine:

-- 8< --
ipmitool> bmc info
Device ID                 : 19
Device Revision           : 1
Firmware Revision         : 1.28
IPMI Version              : 2.0
Manufacturer ID           : 11
Manufacturer Name         : Hewlett-Packard
Product ID                : 8192 (0x2000)
Product Name              : Unknown (0x2000)
Device Available          : yes
Provides Device SDRs      : yes
Additional Device Support :
    Sensor Device
    SDR Repository Device
    SEL Device
    FRU Inventory Device
Aux Firmware Rev Info     :
    0x00
    0x00
    0x00
    0x30
-- 8< --

The question is which raw / OEM command to use to get the NIC information.

BTW, the "fru" command does not help as it just returns some basic system
info:

-- 8< --
ipmitool> fru
FRU Device Description : Builtin FRU Device (ID 0)
 Chassis Type                    : Rack Mount Chassis
 Chassis Serial                  : xxx
 Board Mfg Date        : Mon Jan  1 00:00:00 1996
 Board Mfg             : HP
 Board Product         : ProLiant DL360 G7
 Board Serial          : xxx
 Board Part Number     : 579237-B21
 Product Manufacturer  : HP
 Product Name          : ProLiant DL360 G7
 Product Part Number   : 579237-B21
 Product Serial        : xxx
 Product Asset Tag     :
-- 8< --

and I don't know what arguments I could supply to "fru read".

Alternatively, I could use HP's proprietary XML-based protocol to
fetch the NIC information (as an SMBIOS record), but that's ugly to
parse as the XML response is not well-formed.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Thilo
