Hi Christopher,

As you guessed (apologies for not posting the details) and as was suggested
by Jarrod, it was an issue with ipsrc not being set.

Above is the "patch" I applied to our bmcsetup script.  The "lan print" was
dropped in so I could initially verify that ipsrc was set to "Other".  I'm
sure there's likely a more elegant way to address this moving forward, but
for now we'll confirm that it solves the immediate problem.
