Hey Guys,
I was trying to configure IPMI on 5220 a few weeks ago using ipmitool command. The process completely works on 5020 and 5200 but for some reasons doesn’t on 5220.
The admin guide for 5220 describes only how to configure IPMI changing settings in BIOS.
Anyway – if you need to configure IPMI on 5220, you need to configure lan channel 3 not lan channel 1 (as on 5020).
Use the following commands:
ipmitool -I open lan set 3 ipsrc static
ipmitool -I open lan set 3 ipaddr x.x.x.x
ipmitool -I open lan set 3 netmask x.x.x.x
ipmitool -I open lan set 3 defgw ipaddr x.x.x.x
ipmitool -I open lan set 3 access on
Verify the config:
Ipmitool lan print 3
