According to the ipmitool man page this is possible.
ipmitool -i open lan set <channel number> ipaddr <x.x.x.x> netmask
<x.x.x.x> defgw ipaddr <x.x.x.x> access on
<quote from man file>
lan
These commands will allow you to configure IPMI LAN
channels with network information so they can be used
with the ipmitool lan and lanplus interfaces. NOTE: To
determine on which channel the LAN interface is located,
issue the ‘channel info number’ command until you come
across a valid 802.3 LAN channel. For example:
> ipmitool -I open channel info 1
Channel 0x1 info:
Channel Medium Type : 802.3 LAN
Channel Protocol Type : IPMB-1.0
Session Support : session-based
Active Session Count : 8
Protocol Vendor ID : 7154
print [<channel>]
Print the current configuration for the
given channel. The default will print information
on the first found LAN channel.
set <channel number> <command> <parameter>
Set the given command and parameter on the
specified channel. Valid command/parameter
options are:
ipaddr <x.x.x.x>
Set the IP address for this channel.
netmask <x.x.x.x>
Set the netmask for this channel.
