communicate with the SBC. This script is provided to customers as an example of a
semi-automated method of configuring systems and is not meant for use in production
environments.
The ipmitool utility enables a user to establish an RMCP+ session with an SBC's
management controller and activate two-way SOL packet communication.
It is important to note that while the ipmitool is a supported utility, reference_cfg is
provided as an unsupported reference to be modified by customers to suit their specific
environments and integration needs.
Supported Usage Model
Customers are expected to use SOL to accomplish the following:
The ipmitool utility runs on a remote network node and communicates over the LAN
interface. The remote node and the target SBC may be on the same subnet or on
different subnets.
The reference script can be run on the remote node.

The machine or “remote node” running ipmitool may also be an MPCBL0050 SBC within
the same chassis.
Configuring the Blade for SOL
To configure a blade for SOL, the machine on which the configurator is installed
(typically the remote node) needs to establish an RMCP connection with the SBC. The
configurator sends commands and configuration settings to the SBC to configure and
enable SOL operation. To configure a blade for SOL, reference_cfg needs to run either
on the same blade as the IPMC and communicate via the KCS interface, or on a remote
node. In the latter case, the script sends IPMI messages over the LAN to the SBC’s
shelf manager, which in turn bridges data to the IPMC’s IPMB-0 interface.
The minimal per-blade configuration that must be set up includes the following:
The configuration utility is referring to the reference_cfg script described above.
• EFI BIOS console redirection
• Remote terminal access for OS setup and viewing text console output
• An IP/MAC address, subnet mask and default gateway
• ARP configuration
• User ID and password to authenticate access
• Channel, user, payload, and SOL privilege levels
