All RMCP and RMCP+ traffic received by the Intel

RMM Ethernet NIC will be forwarded via

FML to the BMC. Therefore, the IPMI daemon does not support an IPMI LAN channel. From the

perspective of the BMC, the FML interface shared with the Intel

RMM is an input LAN channel

r LAN traffic from the dedicated NIC of the Intel

RMM.

The FML looks like a LAN channel to the baseboard BMC. Only IPMI traffic is directed to the

BMC from the dedicated NIC (no TCP/IP). Traffic from the baseboard BMC to the

RMM will be IPMI response packets on the FML and IPMI commands (standard and OEM

specific) on the IPMB.
