You can download and use IPMITool to use a console to configure the BMC settings, manage,
and use functions of the remote device, such as IP address configuration, view details on the
sensors, manage users, view the power status of the remote device, or manage the power
controls.
For a list of IPMITool commands, please refer to the

When using IPMITool to execute a command, the command must include
the client device’s BMC IP address. To view the BMC IP address:

b. Go to the
Server Mgmt
menu, then select the
BMC network
configuration
sub-menu. The BMC IP address can be found in the BMC
