4.6.3.1 Serial over LAN
Serial over LAN (SOL) is an extension to IPMI over LAN (IOL) and allows to
transmit serial data via LAN in addition to IPMI commands (verify chapter <x.x.x -
IPMI Interfaces, LAN>). It’s defined in the IPMI v2.0 specification and based on
the RMCP+ protocol to encapsulate serial data in network packets and exchange
them via LAN.
With the help of SOL, user can connect to a virtual serial console (e.g. payload
x86 system) from remote. SOL can be used on MIC-5332 for serial-based OS
and pre-OS communication over LAN (e.g. OS command-line interface and
serial redirected BIOS menu).
<1> Preconditions for SOL
Set IP Address of the Static LAN Interface Command Line Syntax:
ipmitool -I lan -H <ip> -A <authtype> lan set <channel> <command>
<ip address>
-I lan Specifies that Ethernet is used as interface for
communications with the IPMC
-H <ip> Default IP address of LAN interface 192.168.1.1
-A <authtype> Authentication type (depending on supported
types by the Shelf Manager: NONE,
PASSWORD, MD2, MD5 or OEM), default:
NONE
<channel> Default used channel: 5
0: IPMB-0 1: Serial 2. unused
3: unused 4: KCS 5. LAN (default)
6: unused 7: IPMB-L
<command> To change the IP address, please use: ipaddr
<ip address> New IP address to be used
Example:
ipmitool -I lan -H 192.168.1.1 -A none lan set 5 ipaddr 172.21.35.105
/* change the static IP address of LAN interface from 192.168.1.1 to 172.21.35.105 */
