6.10.13 Embedded Web Server
BMC Base manageability provides an embedded web server and an OEM-customizable web GUI which
exposes the manageability features of the BMC base feature set. It is supported over all on-board NICs that
have management connectivity to the BMC as well as an optional RMM4 dedicated add-in management NIC.
At least two concurrent web sessions from up to two different users is supported. The embedded web user
interface shall support the following client web browsers:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0*
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0*
Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.0*
Mozilla Firefox 3.0*
Mozilla Firefox 3.5*
Mozilla Firefox 3.6*
The embedded web user interface supports strong security (authentication, encryption, and firewall support)
since it enables remote server configuration and control. Embedded web server uses ports #80 and #443. The
user interface presented by the embedded web user interface shall authenticate the user before allowing a
web session to be initiated. Encryption using 128-bit SSL is supported. User authentication is based on user id
and password.
The GUI presented by the embedded web server authenticates the user before allowing a web session to be
initiated. It presents all functions to all users but grays-out those functions that the user does not have privilege
to execute. (e.g. if a user does not have privilege to power control, then the item shall be displayed in grey-out
font in that user’s UI display). The web GUI also provides a launch point for some of the advanced features,
such as KVM and media redirection. These features are grayed out in the GUI unless the system has been
updated to support these advanced features.
Additional features supported by the web GUI includes:
Presents all the Basic features to the users.
Power on/off/reset the server and view current power state.
Displays BIOS, BMC, ME and SDR version information.
Display overall system health.
Configuration of various IPMI over LAN parameters for both IPV4 and IPV6
Configuration of alerting (SNMP and SMTP).
Display system asset information for the product, board, and chassis.
Display of BMC-owned sensors (name, status, current reading, enabled thresholds), including color-
code status of sensors.
Provides ability to filter sensors based on sensor type (Voltage, Temperature, Fan & Power supply
related)
Automatic refresh of sensor data with a configurable refresh rate.
On-line help.
Display/clear SEL (display is in easily understandable human readable format).
Supports major industry-standard browsers (Microsoft Internet Explorer* and Mozilla Firefox*).
Automatically logs out after user-configurable inactivity period.
The GUI session automatically times-out after a user-configurable inactivity period. By default, this
inactivity period is 30 minutes.
Embedded Platform Debug feature - Allow the user to initiate a “diagnostic dump” to a file that can be
sent to Intel for debug purposes.
Virtual Front Panel. The Virtual Front Panel provides the same functionality as the local front panel.
The displayed LEDs match the current state of the local panel LEDs. The displayed buttons (e.g. power
button) can be used in the same manner as the local buttons.
Severity level indication of SEL events. The web server UI displays the severity level associated with
each event in the SEL. The severity level correlates with the front panel system status LED ( “OK”,
“Degraded”, “Non-Fatal”, or “Fatal”).
Display of ME sensor data. Only sensors that have associated SDRs loaded will be displayed.
