by means of parameter 20 of the Set LAN Config Parameters IPMI command. When a VLAN ID
is configured and enabled, the BMC only accepts packets with that VLAN tag/ID. Conversely, all
BMC generated LAN packets on the channel include the given VLAN tag/ID. Valid VLAN IDs
are 1 through 4094, VLAN IDs of 0 and 4095 are reserved, per the 802.1Q VLAN Specification.
Only one VLAN can be enabled at any point in time on a LAN channel. If an existing VLAN is
enabled, it must first be disabled prior to configuring a new VLAN on the same LAN channel.
Parameter 21 (VLAN Priority) of the Set LAN Config Parameters IPMI command is now
implemented and a range from 0-7 will be allowed for VLAN Priorities. Please note that bits 3
and 4 of Parameter 21 are considered Reserved bits. Parameter 25 (VLAN Destination
Address) of the Set LAN Config Parameters IPMI command is not supported and returns a
completion code of 0x80 (parameter not supported) for any read/write of parameter 25. If the
BMC IP address source is DHCP, then the following behavior is seen:
If the BMC is first configured for DHCP (prior to enabling VLAN), when VLAN is enabled,
the BMC performs a discovery on the new VLAN in order to obtain a new BMC IP address.
If the BMC is configured for DHCP (before disabling VLAN), when VLAN is disabled, the
BMC performs a discovery on the LAN in order to obtain a new BMC IP address.
If the BMC IP address source is Static, then the following behavior is seen:
If the BMC is first configured for static (prior to enabling VLAN), when VLAN is enabled,
the BMC has the same IP address that was configured before. It is left to the management
application to configure a different IP address if that is not suitable for VLAN.
If the BMC is configure for static (prior to disabling VLAN), when VLAN is disabled, the
BMC has the same IP address that was configured before. It is left to the management
application to configure a different IP address if that is not suitable for LAN.
6.12.7
Secure Shell (SSH)
Secure Shell (SSH) connections are supported for SMASH-CLP sessions to the BMC.
6.12.8
Serial-over-LAN (SOL 2.0)
The BMC supports IPMI 2.0 SOL.
IPMI 2.0 introduced a standard serial-over-LAN feature. This is implemented as a standard
payload type (01h) over RMCP+.
Three commands are implemented for SOL 2.0 configuration.
Get SOL 2.0 Configuration Parameter and Set SOL 2.0 Configuration Parameters: These
commands are used to get and set the values of the SOL configuration parameters. The
parameters are implemented on a per-channel basis.
Activating SOL: This command is not accepted by the BMC. It is sent by the BMC when
SOL is activated to notify a remote client of the switch to SOL. Activating a SOL session
requires an existing IPMI-over-LAN session. If encryption is used, it should be negotiated
when the IPMI-over LAN session is established.
