Agenda • Introduction • Features • KVM and Virtual Media • Software Interface
Introduction • Supermicro’s new Embedded IPMI solution helps save cost and improves reliability • IPMI helps reduce TTM and development cost for cross-platform management • IPMI provides solid foundation for platform management implementations • The IPMI protocol leverages an out-of-band network, which provides a flawless and secure path for mission-critical applications • Provides redundant access to the system for management
Features • Monitors onboard instrumentation (Temperature sensors, Power Status, Voltages, Fan speed, Chassis intrusion • Remote power control (Reset, Shutdown and Power up) • Remote system control through KVM and SOL over LAN • Failover access for redundancy • Configurable Alert destination (Email or SNMP traps) • Virtual Media redirection (Floppy, CD/DVD Drive/image, USB stick) • Soft keyboard
Continued.. • VLAN support • Active directory and Open LDAP Authentication support • SMASH 2.0 and CLP support • WSMAN support • DCMI support • Option to enable secure link through HTTPS • Option to flash FW through Web interface, Windows, Linux and DOS
KVM KVM-over-LAN • Keyboard-video-mouse switches (KVM), connect several computers so that a user can manipulate all of them using just one keyboard, one mouse and one monitor. • As handy as they are, these switches always forced end user to work in a close distances to the servers because of the mouse or keyboard cable length. • Supermicro embedded IPMI support KVM-over-Lan. Authorized users can manage all networked systems with it, no matter how far away.
KVM Virtual Media: • Remote installation of OS • BIOS update, firmware flashing etc from remote location • Data transfer
SOFTWARE • (GUI) IPMIView • (CLI) SMCIPMITool • Web Engine
